ALLEN WEST UNDER ATTACK!
YOUR HELP NEEDED NOW!

Congressman Allen West (R-Florida) is a freshman pro-troop conservative Member of Congress. As an African-American former military officer with service in Iraq, he has been under constant attack by the left. We are outraged that one of his political opponents – a little rich kid with inherited wealth and no achievements to his name – had the audacity to call Colonel West “a coward.”

They are going all out to defeat West by redistricting him out of office, and the pro-troop community must rise up to help this patriotic American stay in office.

Since Allen West came upon the political scene in 2010 he has been a popular punching bag for the left’s attacks while he has steadfastly represented his constituents in south Florida. He has stood up for our troops and given the halls of Congress a loud and proud voice representing our military and its interests, just as Move America Forward Political Action Committee (MAFPAC) predicted when we supported him in 2010.

I’m sure West has heard many insults hurled at him from his political opponents, but last week his would be opponent in his current Florida district, Patrick Murphy, called the revered military leader a “Coward.”

The remark was made in response to West’s announcement that he would seek re-election in a neighboring district after the Florida legislature redrew his current district with a heavy Democratic influence. We know that Allen West can stand up for himself, and that he himself has not been shy about taking on political opponents and ideas.



But to call an American hero, who served in 3 conflicts starting in Desert Storm and received a Bronze Star, a “coward”, for choosing the right district to run in, is simply absurd and offensive.

Patrick Murphy is a 28 year old accountant who works in the family business and has raised most of his campaign money from those close to his family’s business interests (or from left-wing Democrats eager to see West defeated). There is no military service in his 28 years or even any public service. Simply, it is a certified public accountant born with a silver spoon in his mouth calling a retired Lt. Col of our Armed Forces a “coward.” DISGRACEFUL!

oh madam president... have you seen this?

Hadn’t seen it. My boy West could teach that little sissy the meaning of coward just by LOOKING at him. That little girlie-boy needs a lesson in self-awareness.......he probably still lives in his mommy’s basement playing “Call of Duty” and thinking he’s hot-stuff.

Because West didn’t kiss the republican establishment’s ass in congress.

Because the rats got an innocuous sounding constitutional amendment on the ballot in 2010. No Congressional district can be drawn to favor or disfavor any politician. It was designed to remove the drawing of district lines from the pubbie legislature and place it with the 5-2 radical lib supreme court.

It worked. The stinkin’ court decides Congressional district boundaries.
