Allen West: Rice Is "Asinine, Naive, Inept, Incompetent And Borderline Ignorant"
Real Clear Politics ^ | 9/17/12

Posted on 09/17/2012 7:10:12 AM PDT by Evil Slayer

Rep. ALLEN WEST (R-Fla.) on FOX News' Justice with Judge Jeanine Sunday night: Well, it's very simple. When I listened to the UN ambassador Susan Rice today several words came to mind: asinine, naive, inept, incompetent and borderline ignorant. Because when you understand that the Egyptian government, their intelligence services, put out a letter talking about the potential threat of an attack, uprisings, about a week before this. It was even printed in the Jerusalem Post on 9/11.

And anyhow, I can tell you Judge, being in the combat zones several times after 9/11, we were always on a higher state of security and alertness on 9/11. It should have been the exact same thing here. And for Susan Rice to say this was not a well coordinated attack -- first of all, I have to ask her what is her line of expertise in understanding what a well coordinated attack is because this was not happenstance, it was not coincidence. It was well planned, well coordinated and the president there in Libya confirms that.

Exactly, taking issue with Rice is like getting mad at Jay Carney. He/She is just issuing the statement she was ordered to read to keep the spin going. She has a vested interest in keeping a cushy job and hobnobbing with the elite Manhatten cocktail crowd.

I heard the audio of this earlier and agree with him 100%. Too bad he is not at the top of the (R) ticket this election.

I absolutely LOVE Allen West. I pray that if Romney wins he is made Sec. of Defense. He will weed out the corrupt bootlickers in the Pentagon

Yup, and the JAG Corp would be quivering on the floor like epileptics as he traces the corruption.

They think they could get away with their usual media cover. Not going to work in an international incident where destabilization threatens the world. Guess they weren’t expecting the foreign press to do its job.

Do you know for sure that she even has a PhD?

Maybe she's like Al Sharpton who wants people to think he went to divinity school and got a degree. Instead, he was "ordained" at age 10 by a DC preacher and perpetuated the lie every since. (So has Jesse Jackson.) Maybe Rice got her degree with two box tops and $5 from some website.

I agree with all of this headline except ‘borderline’.

As a member of The Judge Advocate General’s Corps, I take issue with your statement. We don’t make policy, we apply the Constitution and the properly implemented rules and regulations (NOT implemented by us, implemented by the Executive Branch General Counsels and/or the Congress) of the military services. We. Don’t. Cover. Up. Hell, we got RID of a TJAG (Fiscus) and a just-about-GO (Mike Murphy) when their perfidy was discovered. Your statement is ignorant and incorrect.

Colonel, USAFR

Yeah, like all those “social science” degrees: BS; More Sh!t; and Pile Higher & Deeper!

West did not run for president for a very good reason, he saw no reason to get slaughtered and accomplish nothing. He appears to be much more aware of political realities than those believing he has (at this time) any shot at the nomination.

Sorry, but this is wrong. No one can be this divorced from reality and so completely incompetent.

No. This is more sinister. This is being done ON PURPOSE.

This is the Party line. This is the narrative. Repeat, repeat, repeat until the Masses believe the Big Lie.

This isn't stupidity on display... It's treason.

Why did they send Susan Rice to defend Hildebeast.

It seems that Rice was sent on a fool's mission.

This is the responsibility of Hillary and her failed Foreign Policy.

Are you familiar with COIN? There is nothing sinister or conspiratorial about it, these public servants actually believe assimilation can occur with a counter-hegemonic force.

If we need to cross the Delaware a second time, Allen West should be the general.

This may be their end goal, but Party operatives pushing the Lie over and over again should never be assumed to be "stupid" or just plain old ignorant.

Be it Agenda 21 or simple local power mongering... They are giving outright aid and comfort to our Countries declared enemies.

As I said, treason.

If this were a Republican administration THERE WOULD ALREADY HAVE BEEN ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT INTRODUCED IN THE HOUSE - AT LEAST A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO.

Hillary is fully responsible for U.S. Foreign Policy.

She wanted the Title, thus she assumes the responsibility.

Rice is not responsibility for the operation of Embassies and Consulates.
