Video: Angry crowd reacts to ‘misleading recount’ in Allen West race
BIZPACReview.com ^ | 11/11/2012 | Michele Kirk

Allen West supporters expressed shock in Fort Pierce on Sunday, but not because the finally tally in St. Lucie County’s Congressional District 18 race showed West gaining 201 more votes — but because it was only based on a “cherry picked” partial recount and the supervisor refused to explain why.

Despite the persistent questions over fairness and accuracy, county attorneys, the county canvassing board and Elections Supervisor Gertrude Walker refused to answer questions from the campaigns or the press throughout the entire exercise. When the machine count was finished, elections officials announced the total and immediately had a sheriff’s deputy instruct everyone to leave...

Beck and Rush will talk about it. Hannity and the rest won’t.
Just my opinion, that’s all. We’ll see tomorrow.

I think Mark Levin will talk about it. He likes Allen West.

Well what happened to democrats always screaming about voters being disenfranchised. Here is 200 that were almost disenfranchised. Ho many more are there? I guess that argument won’t work with any judge when it is republicans getting screwed.

Because they are complicit.

Where can you own firearms as an ex-pat American citizen? I’m curious because I’m thinking that route if God willing I make it to 60.

Really what?

Was I anticipating such a comment? Yes.
Am I considering leaving the country? Yes.
Will I continue to fight for the idea of America from wherever? Yes.
Will that be easier from outside? In my case, yes.
Will life here be dominated by union thug cops, endless red tape, oppressive taxation and spiraling cost of living? I believe so.

So not sure what your “really” was for, but I think the answer is yes, really.

Checking into that. Started working on this option in 08 - sort of put it on back burner after all the elections went against Obama in 09, 10 and 11. But dang it, pulled all that back out this week.

Of course, our calculation is to lay low over seas, a sort of semi Galt semi retirement, while still battling in the specific areas we (my wife, kids and I) are called to do.

SO WHERE IS BOEHNER... FOR GOD’S SAKE??!!

Boehner is not one to go out of his way for any Tea Partier kinda congressman. If there is one less of them, especially a vocal one, all the better.

In related news, the NRCC, NRC, GOP, M-O-U-S-E gave no money to help Bachmann

They are snivelingly little cowards.

I am so sick and tired of the little men that are serving this country.

You’re right about West. He’s seen battle and is not going to give up easily. I’m so disgusted by the voter fraud. These people were so sure of themselves they’ve bared tried to hide it. The Republican party needs to grow a pair. Makes me think the elites are party to selling the nation down the river.

its nice to know that a bunch of you are jumping ship and running away, and if Hannity et al are going to support West, or any such malarky...

but for those wanting to do something, making another donation to West would be helpful...

The founders took a different approach than you suggest and most might agree that they were highly successful with the results. I have ancestors who stood with them. You possibly don’t. Therefor, our differences could simply be a DNA thing.

You’re a dumb f-k. Just a real DF. Nothing, I repeat NOTHING, is the same now as then. Then again, anyone and everyone who is NOT a dumb f_k knows that.

Go pour some musket balls, throw some wood on the fire, and print some pamphlets. DUM FK.

That’s ok bud. Run away and hide. Curl up in the fetal position in a dark corner somewhere. We’ll give you a call when it’s safe to come out.

The problem with folks like you, with the exceptionally low IQs and inability to think outside the box, is that you think America is a piece of real estate. I know America is an idea, and if that idea is no longer welcomed on a certain piece of land, then so be it.

I think that makes me the real patriot and it makes you the indentured servant. Enjoy your death panel bureaucrat when you need that bypass operation.
