no, lbryce,
not at all
Its a great post...I love Allen West
I just had a question for the moderator....
Keep up the great work
I’m more a struggling student than a scholar. But I appreciate the welcome :)
I appreciate your comments. I wasn’t being serious, merely tongue-in-cheek. I very much do understand your frustration, but if indeed what you’ve posted is the case, I don’t think the approach you’ve taken is going to be in any way effective. Just an opinion.
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”
Samuel Adams
His history lesson to the Koran acolyte showed a man that burned with knowledge.
Refreshing.
"Put the microphone down and go home!"
Actually a huge amount of both civic and political experience. Members of their colonial assemblies, leaders in the colonial militias. Founders of all sorts of organizations. Read Ben Franklin and George Washington's biographies and you will be blown away about just how involved they were. The Revolution was something that none of them wanted and they fought vigorously for years to try to
mend fences with Parliament and the King.
You can't really understand the Revolution, unless you understand just how big a leap these men took in finally NOT seeing themselves as British subjects...It took years and years. The break was painful for them. Many loyalists (Tories) couldn't make the break. Read of the terrible strikes by each side in New Jersey or the Carolinas between Loyalists and colonials or about the Regulators in the Carolinas.
Because these men has such enormous political experience they were able to create something never seen before...a republican democracy based on Natural Law.
Don't fool yourself. Great things do not come from the play of children...the Tea Party will be snookered time and time again by the seasoned politicians.
The Big Boo
What did West say?
I couldn’t understand a d*mn word he said.
dream ticket for 2012 is Demint/West or West/Demint it doesn’t matter but they could win.
Truly a match made in Heaven for the perfectly balanced and fleshed out ticket.
They could get over 60% of the popular vote.

What!? What??!!!
That's the precise opposite of what TR3 said. Why are you being an obtuse, ignorant sphync? Seriously, who pissed in your Früsen Glâadjé? Bullies aren't well received on FR... y'all play nice, now.
You won't get that rush of instant gratification that you do when you act all tough and gay (shows of anonymous verbal force are often keyed to latent homosexual urges), but you'll feel alot better on down the road knowing you did what was right... and that you're probably not gay.

Love Lt.Col./Congressman Allen West. Send check now, for his next campaign; show other Repubs,’what it takes’ - what is appreciated (not to mention ‘needed’).
W e s t spells Leadership - and in all the right places.
The man addressing West tries to say is that the Koran does not tell Muslims to attack the United States. West begins to document by year violent actions taken by Muslims. One date mentioned is 628 A.D. (research it) and the attack on Constantinople (and its subsequent fall). He mentions the 911 attacks as well. None of the peoples attacked by Muslims throughout the centuries are mentioned in the Koran, but they attacked them anyway.
What West establishes clearly is that the Koran DOES CLEARLY TEACH MUSLIMS TO KILL ANYONE WHO OPPOSES ISLAM and they do. West even points out that he went to defend innocent Muslims from attacks by these radical Muslims and was still attacked. The rank hypocrisy of Islam is OBVIOIUS to any thinking person.
Running West against Obama in 2012 would destroy the Left’s racial hammer...and he’d be a superb leader.
ping for later
Awesome video! it made my morning. I couldn’t vote for him, but was able to send Congressman West some money during the election (now that I’ve stopped giving to the RNC). He’s the real deal. I’ve bumped into him around South Florida a few times and he’s just like you see on Fox - humble, knowledgeable and a very personable fellow. Thanks for posting.
I love Allen West as well. I pray for him. He is our enemies’ worst nightmare.
Even knowing what that is a sure sign of UTTER FAGGOTRY.
In fact, just using accents on letters is a symptom of colossal bone-deep preversion.
LOL, not being serious. This is such a great thread. We are truly elevating the hearts and minds of men.
Does anyone has a Transcript on this exchange?
I could not hear anything and it seems to be IMPORTANT!
I would be very glad to see a TRANSCRIPT!
