Former Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) believes that Attorney General Eric Holder is a more dangerous threat to the United States than the terrorist organization al-Qaeda.
West, who lost his bid for re-election in November and is now a Fox News contributor and the Director of Programming for Next Generation TV, made the claim in a fundraising email for his political action committee, the Allen West Guardian Fund.
After posting a side-by-side picture of Ayman al-Zawahiri, the leader of al-Qaeda, and Holder, West asked the email’s recipients “Which of these emails scares you the most?” The answer, as he then pointed out, was Holder.
“…I’ll tell you flat out — Eric Holder is a bigger threat to our Republic for the very reasons Cicero contemplated over 2,000 years ago,” West wrote in the email. “Al-Qaeda is a very serious and persistent threat, but I trust the U.S. military to protect us from future attacks. I cannot say the same about President Obama and his Justice Department.”
While West’s remarks are among the most extreme made about Holder in recent weeks, he is not alone in wanting Holder replaced in light of the Internal Revenue Service and Associated Press scandals. A recent Rasmussen study found that 47 percent of Americans have an unfavorable opinion of the attorney general, and that 42 percent believe he should resign from office.
yep, would be proud to call the LtCol. my President!
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly.
But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men.
He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.
A murderer is less to fear.
The traitor is the plague."
of course it is... it's INSIDE the wire!!!
Well, Eric Holder’s law firm was a defender of terrorists before he became the AG. So yes I agree, Terrorists having him defending them while holding the top law position in the country no doubt makes him more dangerous than them.
Agreed. He was my A-1 choice, (for VP along side Sarah in 2016),.....until he voted ‘aye’ for the nazi Germany style NDAA crap. (The OK of rounding up of American citizens off of our streets/homes by our own Military of those whom were deemed ‘terrorists’ by the Feds), indefinite detention of American citizens no trial, no judge, no due process....indefinite. NO true Conservative could support that NDAA. West has to walk that ‘aye’ vote back. I hope to heck he can.
1- i can’t imagine aw being wrong about anything
2-at least al-queda is honest, when was the last time you heard something honest from a rat??
The Islamic “revert” waved a Koran at Lt Col West & demanded he point to passages about jihad against “infidels”.
West was cutting him down to gnat’s knees when some woman walked in front of the “revert” & shook her head like “give it up!”
To the earlier post: OK, you’re right, the Pres. candidate is the statesman, the running mate is the lightning rod & lender of ideological certitude. Lt Col West would be superb in that capacity but I also think he’d make a great commander in chief.
The climate of pro-muzzie PC would instantly end. There’s precedent: the Iranian mullahs fell all over themselves to free the hostages once Reagan’s finger appeared over the release button.
thx...
I don’t see it as an “either/or”.
But he’s right. With a principled, honest and loyal AG, AQ would be much less of a threat.
A large percentage of the Lawyers from Holder’s Law firm that brought to Justice with him and who all now hold high and influential positions at the Justice Department were previously the”pro bono” defense lawyers for Al Qaeda prisoners at Gitmo.
Holder is at the very least an Al-Qaeda sympathizer as are many in his law firm as well as many in this Administration and it may go much deeper than that and his affiliation may at some point be exposed to reveal that it crosses the line to treason.
He actually staged an armed takeover of a Nat Guard station in college. Sum beech IS a Domestic Terrorist!
Why couldn’t West win?
Cruz is not a natural born citizen so he is not eligible for either positoin. Sad, but true.
Or ordering someone to off Breitbart. See Nachum’s “Deal Pool”.
I have always loved Allen West!
Rats will attack him for saying this but he’s 1000% right.
Al Queda’s attacks on us are sporadic.
Holder and his boss are screwing us 24 hours a day.
