Allen West: Ron Paul ‘Not the Kind of Guy You Need to Be Sitting at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave’
The Blaze ^ | 08-14-11 | Madeleine Morgenstern

Ron Paul probably shouldn’t expect a presidential endorsement from Florida Rep. Allen West.

The Republican congressman had some strong words for the candidate Saturday, two days after Paul suggested during Thursday’s GOP debate that Iran be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon because so many other countries already have them.

Speaking at a Tea Party event in Fort Lauderdale, West said he was deeply concerned about U.S. foreign policy, and particularly the threat Iran poses to the rest of the world.

“Yeah. I see how much West hates the Tea Party and they hate him. This speech was given at a Tea Party event on Saturday.”

OK they, had a 4 Hour meeting with him over his “Voting” Habits lets say!

Ron Paul has some good ideas, but for every good one he has a nutty one to neuter it.

Yeah! You are right! Let's Primary that Commie Pinko POS West right away. All of those points you brought up without any context have me so angry. I guess the only way to save the country is to have Ron Paul as King. That will get the job done.

We all know 911 was an inside job. Right?

You are right again. You have me sold. Ron Paul for President. As soon as he takes office, the first thing I hope he does is tear down the Lincoln Memorial. Why have a monument to a Tyrant like Honest Abe. Right?

“Six hundred thousand Americans died in a senseless civil war…. [President Abraham Lincoln] did this just to enhance and get rid of the original intent of the republic,” Paul said. “Every other major country in the world got rid of slavery without a civil war. I mean, that doesn’t sound too radical to me. That sounds like a pretty reasonable approach.” - RP

And how is the US going to stop Iran from getting a nuke?

Very simple. Beat the hell out of them.

Any other questions, Paultard?

Ron Paul disgusts me so much I almost want to throw up whenever I see him or hear him speak .

Anyone that thinks he is the model America should follow needs to be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail .

Yet if Ron Paul would have received only 153 more votes in the straw poll, he would have beat out Bachmann-Rollins.

I seem to recall West coming out and saying he made a wrong vote on the Pigford black farmer reparations. Nobody’s 100% perfect.

I guess the Tea Party could throw him under the bus and let a Democrat get elected to that district. I’m sure Debbie Wasserman-Shultz would be happy to help.

Ron Paul supporters remind me of Lindon Larouche supporters. Tactics, talking points etc......Complete freaks.

I LOVE this picture! Sarah is so charismatic. Can you imagine a Palin/West campaign?

I tried to attend the Cedarburg event the day after her VP acceptance speech. I live 30 miles from there. I thought, I’ll leave 2 hours early. It’s only 20 miles away. WRONG. I never got near the event. She and West have the gift. If I had that gift, I don’t know how I’d handle it. But, they both were, granted by the grace of God the ability to speak, relate and deliver a message. Thank God for people like this. I’d LOVE to be in that group. Sadly, I’m just a voter.

153 more inbreds wouldn’t have mattered. Like the straw poll really matters.
