Rep. Allen West (R-FL) told Laura Ingraham tonight on the O’Reilly Factor that he was the modern day Harriet Tubman.
Allen West:“Well I think Laura when you look at what is happening, the laughable hypocrisy is that the big black bus is not going into the black communities. When you have unemployment in the black community, 16.3% in July and it dropped down to 15.9% in the month of August, that’s not in the right direction.
So you have this 21st Century plantation where the democrat party has forever taken the black vote for granted and you have established certain black leaders are nothing more than the overseers of the plantation.
And, now the people on that plantation are upset because they’ve been disregarded, disrespected and their concerns are not cared about. So I’m here as the modern day Harriet Tubman to kinda lead people on the underground railroad away from that plantation into a sense of sensibility.”

I like this guy.
I wish *he* were running for POTUS.
Heck — he’s even got executive experience! (Very rare in a representative.) Running military units in combat is about as demanding as executive positions get.
Gotta love West. He isn’t afraid to speak his mind.
I’m beginning to think West reads FR.
It’s a long battle if that’s what he is trying to do. The blacks need to start asking themselves what the democrats have done for them in the last 60+ years. If the dems have done so much why are there poverty stricken blacks, ghettos, smash mobs. I hope they wake-up.
I would vote Allen West for president in a heartbeat.
I really, really like Allen West. This country needs more straight-talk.
Ultimately, PC garbage/fluff has harmed and will continue to harm the very individuals it was falsely claimed to “protect.”
Black leaders are indeed equivalent to overseers of the plantation.
White liberals treat blacks like children, victims who are incapable of standing on their own two feet and being responsible for their lives. Black leaders feed off of this and encourage their communities to act like victims and encourage their dependency on the government. This dependency on government support cripples their ability to support themselves.
Like overseers, black leaders personally profit from being able to lead a group that they are repressing.

I think I just heard Jesse Jackson’s head explode.
PALIN/WEST 2012
His rhetoric says “Tea Party” but his voting record says “already corrupted by DC”. Don’t get your hopes up for this one.
At first glance I thought he was leading a march out of Plantation and heading out on Broward Blvd. towards Weston to burn down Debbie Whaterface-Shitferbrains office. Imagine my disappointment.

Some links, please.
Very strange thing to say when he just voted to add to the government plantation. Yes I like the guy but I just wish he would not have made that statement at this time when he just voted to support the plantation workers.....
You would be able to literally stick your head out of the window and hear liberal heads exploding all over the country!

Read ‘em and weep. He votes like an establishment party soldier.
Then why, Sir, did you just vote to give the ‘plantation’ a $2.4 Trillion Dollar upgrade?
Ohhhh..... that’s gonna leave a BIG mark!
That’s hitting them where it really HURTS!!!
cool!
