One conservative Republican rides his mansized "hog" in numerous charity events.
One marxist progressive Democrat pedals his ass to the local Starbucks for a snack.
The difference: PRICELESS

After Rep. Allen West left the House floor today, lying leftist hack Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz attacked him and lied about the Republican plan. A disgruntled Allen West sent out this response to the vile DNC chair.
Via the Politico:
From: Z112 West, Allen
Sent: Tuesday, July 19, 2011 04:48 PM
To: Wasserman Schultz, Debbie
Cc: McCarthy, Kevin; Blyth, Jonathan; Pelosi, Nancy; Cantor, Eric
Subject: Unprofessional and Inappropriate Sophomoric Behavior from Wasserman-SchultzLook, Debbie, I understand that after I departed the House floor you directed your floor speech comments directly towards me. Let me make myself perfectly clear, you want a personal fight, I am happy to oblige. You are the most vile, unprofessional ,and despicable member of the US House of Representatives. If you have something to say to me, stop being a coward and say it to my face, otherwise, shut the heck up. Focus on your own congressional district!
I am bringing your actions today to our Majority Leader and Majority Whip and from this time forward, understand that I shall defend myself forthright against your heinous characterless behavior……which dates back to the disgusting protest you ordered at my campaign hqs, October 2010 in Deerfield Beach.
You have proven repeatedly that you are not a Lady, therefore, shall not be afforded due respect from me!
Steadfast and Loyal
Congressman Allen B West (R-FL)
Look for vile Wasserman Schultz to play the victim card in 3… 2… 1…
You can find it on C-Span’s Congressional Chronicals.
This letter is so yummy I had to read it twice!
She is filth. Debbie Wasserman Schlutz. She must be the illigitimate child of Hillary and Nancy.
I really don’t know. Could it be because some Republican public officeholders also hold high Party offices? or might like to?

Tip of the hat Mr. West. Dig in, be ready for some shrapnel from the MSM. Then come out swinging like Joe Frazier. Take no prisoners. You own it, drive like you stole it.
Oh brother...I just listened to her speech from the floor...So tired of hearing this “shared sacrifice” baloney when the democrates and elites live high on the hog. Let them pay down the debt from their own coffers....let’s see how well they can “share” when most of them are consistantly avoiding paying their own taxes!
Would be interesting to see a list of Democratic politicians etc. with the actual numbers of how much they have owed in taxes and didn’t pay or avoided paying “thier fair share”... Geitner comes to mind as a good start.
Oh YES! You Tube was in the tank for Barry Soetoro way before the last election took place in November. I often wonder if he would have won without You Tube. I heard Facebook is doing the same thing. We all know Google is a sorry sack of sh&t and in the tank. Google is up to something lately. If you hide your IP they won’t let you use their search unless you type in all this BS. I got a screenshot. I just used Bing. They want to know what your IP is and who you are, they can go &^%$ off.
Read this written after the last election which tells you how big a role You Tube played:
How Obama’s Internet Campaign Changed Politics
The Obama campaign’s use of the Internet has been cited as playing a large role in upending how presidential races are fought. (Credit: Peter Wynn Thompson for The New York Times)
One of the many ways that the election of Barack Obama as president has echoed that of John F. Kennedy is his use of a new medium that will forever change politics. For Mr. Kennedy, it was television. For Mr. Obama, it is the Internet.
“Were it not for the Internet, Barack Obama would not be president. Were it not for the Internet, Barack Obama would not have been the nominee,” said Arianna Huffington, editor in chief of The Huffington Post.
She spoke Friday about how politics and Web 2.0 intersect on a panel with Joe Trippi, a political consultant, and Gavin Newsom, the mayor of San Francisco, at the Web 2.0 Summit in San Francisco. (Karl Rove and Newt Gingrich had been invited to balance out the left-leaning panel, but declined, according to John Battelle, a chair of the conference.)
Howard Dean’s 2004 campaign -– which was run by Mr. Trippi –- was groundbreaking in its use of the Internet to raise small amounts of money from hundreds of thousands of people. But by using interactive Web 2.0 tools, Mr. Obama’s campaign changed the way politicians organize supporters, advertise to voters, defend against attacks and communicate with constituents.
Mr. Obama used the Internet to organize his supporters in a way that would have in the past required an army of volunteers and paid organizers on the ground, Mr. Trippi said.
“The tools changed between 2004 and 2008. Barack Obama won every single caucus state that matters, and he did it because of those tools, because he was able to move thousands of people to organize.”
Mr. Obama’s campaign took advantage of YouTube for free advertising. Mr. Trippi argued that those videos were more effective than television ads because viewers chose to watch them or received them from a friend instead of having their television shows interrupted.
“The campaign’s official stuff they created for YouTube was watched for 14.5 million hours,” Mr. Trippi said. “To buy 14.5 million hours on broadcast TV is $47 million.”
There has also been a sea change in fact-checking, with citizens using the Internet to find past speeches that prove a politician wrong and then using the Web to alert their fellow citizens.
The John McCain campaign, for example, originally said that Governor Sarah Palin opposed the so-called bridge to nowhere in Alaska, Ms. Huffington said. “Online there was an absolutely obsessive campaign to prove that wrong,” she said, and eventually the campaign stopped repeating it.
“In 2004, trust me, they would have gone on repeating it, because the echo chamber would not have been as facile,” Ms. Huffington said.
The Internet also let people repeatedly listen to the candidates’ own words in the face of attacks, Mr. Huffington said. As Reverend Jeremiah Wright’s incendiary words kept surfacing, people could re-watch Mr. Obama’s speech on race. To date, 6.7 million people have watched the 37-minute speech on YouTube.
The Internet also changes the way politicians govern. Mr. Newsom learned that last year when he ran for re-election. He showed up at a rally and didn’t see the usual crowd. His aides told him the audience was made up of his Facebook friends. “I said, ‘What’s Facebook?’” Mr. Newsom recalled.
These days, Mr. Newsom is “obsessed with Facebook.” It strengthens his connection with his constituents and their connection with the causes they care about, he said.
The constant exposure can, of course, turn against politicians.
Ms. Huffington’s “off the bus” team of 10,000 citizen journalists caught candidates saying things that embarrassed them later, like Mr. Obama’s “guns and religion” remark. Now, she said, “there is no off-the-record fund-raiser.”
Mr. Newsom says he is fearful of the constant need to watch his tongue. “I have to watch myself singing, ‘I left my heart in San Francisco’ on YouTube and it can’t go away. I am desperate to get it to go away,” he said dryly.
“There will be a lot of collateral damage coming to grips with the fact that we’re in a reality TV series, ‘Politics 24/7,’” Mr. Newsom said.
That’s a good thing, Mr. Trippi said. “This medium demands authenticity, and television for the most part demanded fake. Authenticity is something politicians haven’t been used to.”
He predicted that this real-time Internet contact with constituents will also change the way the president of the United States governs. He recently proposed that Mr. Obama start a Web site called MyWhiteHouse.gov to talk with citizens. (Mr. Obama just started a different site, Change.gov, on Thursday to keep in touch with people during the transition.)
“When Congress refuses to go with his agenda, it’s not going to be just the president” they oppose, Mr. Trippi said. It will be the president and his huge virtual network of citizens.
“Just like Kennedy brought in the television presidency, I think we’re about to see the first wired, connected, networked presidency,” Mr. Trippi said.

Vote West, young man.
What a president he would make........
Way to go West!!! I want that nasty woman out of my state. Siberia sounds nice for her.
Probably...you know if this next election bombs for us I will be throwing in the towel on my political interests and participation. There is so darn much corruption across the board it’s a wonder this nation has lasted as long as it has without another civil war.......I don’t want to see a third party but it is looking more and more like that will be the only thing that might save this nation....but there are too few people who actually would care to get on board that I think.
I'm in for this!!!
Damn, she is really hard on the eyes.
West pretty much summed it up. Wasserman is a vile, despicable little liar. How she ended up as the head of the DNC is beyond me.
Allen West is my hero.
I knew something was brewing when Obama had all the ceo's from google, youtube etc. at his meeting in Washington. I had a very bad feeling when it was aired they were all chumming up together.
It was said "whoever controls the media controls the elections now". and that may not be far from the truth. And now they are going after Murdock as well....and they said they would do that.
OK, this is a little off topic, but my gawd, have you seen her teeth? She has rows and rows and rows of them, and they are all sharp and filed to a point. I think her mother mated with a Great White or she is going to audition for the next starring role in True Blood.
I am with others here...I really like this guy alot and believe he will do us well as he serves...and hopefully will rise more and more. Unfortunately the “old” white heads still rule in Washington so he has to play his hands carefully. Shultz was a good target...a relatively young pup yet West went for the jugular!
