He's out of office, but former Congressman Allen West is still attracting controversy.

This time it's over a speech he's scheduled to give Saturday night to one of the Broward School Board's advisory committees.

Not sure what happened.

This is the link ( http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/elections/fl-allen-west-schools-20130219,0,6366316.story ) and this is the headline ( Upcoming Allen West appearance sparks complaint ).

Can an admin fix this?

Sorry.

I don’t disagree but IIRC, the editorial board endorsed Romney over Barry.

Correct. I stopped reading it at least 10 years ago. I’ve never forgiven them for running a picture (with approving caption) of some queers raising the fag flag in the style of the Iwo Jima flag raising.

Hey Wait,

The Pravda of old Soviet Union, is NOT the Pravda of today.

Today’s Pravda prods Americans to hang onto the 2nd.

Go there! The world is truly upside down!

What is a “civic activist”? Anything like a community organizer?
