Rep. Allen West reportedly offended the entire Congressional Black Caucus when he delivered a selection of Chick-fil-A chicken and biscuits to the members’ weekly meeting. CBC Chairman Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-FL) told The Huffington Post that, despite the incident happening six months ago, it is still fresh in their minds and every member was offended.

“Melvin said West spent about $600 on the Chick-fil-A meal and that there was “not a plate left” by the end of the meeting.”

Hipocrits!

We need more like Mr. West.

They were so offended they could barely choke a third plateful down. Hey! It was free.

Once when the world was right side up, taking offense was a sign of weak character. Now we are ruled by it.

I think it's accurate to say he gave them the bird.

Yard-bird, but bird nonetheless.

It's very obvious that they're just pissed because Allen West forgot to bring some Watermelon for dessert.

GMTA -- or, if he had brought watermelon, they would be doubly offended. As another poster noted, it's just another day of offending the perpetually offended -- SSDD, if you will.

How does one tell if it’s dementia or being a Democrat? Same symptoms.

Nice one Alan. True that Alcee was impeached and yet the people of south Florida keep sending him back. I guess they have validated his free pass to corruption.
Alcee is a BIGOT if there ever was one. I recall he voted in 2004 not to accept or recognize Ohio's electoral votes. Funny he didn't seem to have that problem in 2008.

Maybe he sent them White meat? He should send them another helping.

Oh, OK. I must have been thinking of JC Watts. I think he tried to get in but was rejected. I thought West was as well.

Hypocrites and out of touch since a majority of blacks oppose gay marriage.

Seared in their minds, just like John Kerry and Cambodia!

Liberal Blacks and Moslems, all desperately looking for and opportunity to be outraged and offended!

the incident happening six months ago

I think of them as "crazy thoughts" people. Every thought they have is crazy.

Then we have "crazy person reporting". Those reporter-etts are experts at it.

The problem must be that Chick-fil-A uses chicken breast which is the WHITE meat of the chicken.

It happened six months ago—and they’re now just getting “offended”??

Yea, but they have a ways to go to catch up with the muzzlimbs when it comes to being "offended".

Rush menioned this on his show today. So funny!! Seems the Black Caucus Committee members take turns bringing the food when they meet. Six meaning 6 months ago, Allen West had his turn to bring the food and he brought Chick-Fil-A. So Alsee Hastings happened to remember that fact, and stated it to the other members and now they have another reason to be mad at Allen!! You know, they dont like Allen because he happens to be a black Conservative!!
