West should think before he speaks. He’s a bit of a hothead.
I think these two are victims of the same affliction. They are not sure of the consequences in simply denying any further spending, and drawing a line in the sand. Therefore, the responsibility really scares them to death. It would be a much more comfortable position, to just go along like always. The fear of the unknown, gnaws at them more ferociously, than doing the right thing.
He’s on the Cain plane....boom.
Good Lord people! The left is watching us fight among ourselves and laughing.
I give West the benefit of the doubt. He knows that the Senate will not pass Boehner’s bill. They will amend the crap out of it and hand it back at the 11th hour. Then the House refuses to pass the amendments.
Obama, Reid and company will then blame the republicans for everything. West, Cantor and company will hit the air with a response along the lines of ‘hey, we submitted three bills to them and they won’t budge.’ That becomes campaign fodder for next year.
Obama will then try his 14th Amendment ploy and then the fun begins.
West is smart and I am trusting his decision on this one. Why do you think they didn’t vote last night?
West is just another socialist pandering to the welfare class!
Take off his glasses and you have obama#2.
But did he call us hobbits?
Big mistake on my part, he ain't one of us.
Another one bites the dust!
It is now in vogue to bash us.
They forgot the lesson of November 2010.
A sure sign of your immaturity ...
FR has become nothing but love him/hate him based on the latest words uttered by the politician/ pundit/whoever.
This is what people cal “Blow with the wind”
On the off chance that Allen West is right perhaps the tea party people should start listening a bit
Never have like Laura. Don’t like her verse and her face is a scowl.
Now, what will the bill look like that obama signs?
The main thing is either he’ll be able to raise the debt anytime he wants or the can will be kicked past the 2012 election. This is his only issue. And either way, he wins.
In after the “Allen West is a Rino” ping.
Apparently, the definition of “conservative” is now “someone who always agrees with my strategy even if I have no idea what is actually happening”.
Allen West is human. Therefore, he could well be wrong on this. But I don’t think you can doubt that he BELIEVES he is doing what is right, that he is NOT a sellout, and that in his opinion, passing this bill is the proper conservative move.
I’d love to see us debate the merits of conservative positions, rather than simply dismiss people when they say things we don’t agree with.
Scared of debbie washerwoman schultz! Well better we should find out NOW than elect him VP and find out later.
Mr West, the liberals aren’t going to vote for you in 2012.
And now neither will we.
Given enough ti8me, all politicians
show their true colors! The Tea Party is made of of mature Americans who care for and want the best for their country. We reject Obama’s change! Apparently, most politicians only care for and want the best for themselves. A balanced budget amendment is wanted by the majority of the voters.l As usual, the politician will tell the people what is good for them. So it is business as usual in Washington D.C. with no common sense in government!
No now I’m a chizo. So be it West,go to hell.
