Allen West ...free speech only for Right wing? - 1/29/2012 11:50:37 AM

Speaking to a Lincoln Day Dinner in West Palm Beach for the Palm Beach County GOP, Rep. Allen West (R-Fla) fired off a humdinger of a line that within minutes drew recriminations from Democrats on Twitter.

"We need to let President Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, (audience boos) and my dear friend the chairman of the Democrat National Committee, we need to let them know that Florida ain't on the table," West said. "Take your message of equality of achievement, take your message of economic dependency, take your message of enslaving the entrepreneurial will and spirit of the American people somewhere else. You can take it to Europe, you can take it to the bottom of the sea, you can take it to the North Pole, but get the hell out of the United States of America."

Following cheers, West added, "Yeah I said 'hell.'"

Moments after the quote was mentioned on Twitter, former Reid spokesman Jim Manley responded via his own Twitter feed: "Me to allen west. You first asshole."

And they say politics is getting more acrimonious.

Poor baby, he must be a very frustrated scared little man who really should be more careful about his inability to accept differing outlooks on life.

Obviously Florida isn't on the table: if the Republicans gave a flying fuck how people voted there, the chimp wouldn't have nickedwon his first term, would he?

The buddhists would claim that it's spiritually corrosive, but I don't think they can arrest you for that.
(Yet.)

[Did you notice "straw" is misspelled? Ah, the irony of criticism.]

What's funny as hell is the part of FL he was giving that speech in has been for decades not been considered a part of the US by English speakers.

Maybe he thinks that his target audience is people who speak Spanish not English and have no idea what he's blathering about?

Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.

West Palm Beach is one of the wealthiest zip codes in the US.

That being said, the rest of Palm Beach county has a LOT of places that you or I wouldn't drive thru in the daytime.
