Hmmmmmmmm - - - - ?

Do you think that in 2016 newly elected President of the United States of America Allen West would appoint either Judge Jennine or Roger Ailes to head up the DOJ?

He’s onto something when he references McCarthy. Those on the Left are never going to allow a parallel to Nixon to penetrate their closed little minds. They’ll never see Obama as a Nixon no matter how accurate the comparison. But they view McCarthy as intimidating innocents (whether they were innocent is a separate issue), and they also view reporters, especially AP reporters, as innocents. It is relatively easy to draw parallels between McCarthy and the Obama administration, parallels that stand a chance of shaking up many who’ve voted twice for Obama.

Thanks for that slant - I originally thought he had hosed it because McCarthy was proved to be right. Your take on it makes a lot of sense.
