Congressman-elect Allen West (R-Fla.) said he plans to join the Congressional Black Caucus next year.
West, one of two black Republicans elected to Congress in Tuesday's election, said he plans to join the Democratic-dominated bloc, to challenge, in West word's, the CBC's "monolithic voice."
"I plan on joining, I'm not gonna ask for permission or whatever, I'm gonna find out when they meet and I will be a member of the Congressional Black Caucus and I think I meet all of the criteria and it's so important that we break down this 'monolithic voice' that continues to talk about victimization and dependency in the black community," West said on WOR radio.

That should be a hoot!
I like him too. I’d love to be a fly on the wall when he shows up. Those whiney, bytchin’ hypocrites won’t know what hit ‘em. LOL
The “Black” Cauci is about to see what a real leader looks like! Get ‘em in line and squared away colonel!
Maybe Sheila Jackson Lee will want to name a hurricane after him.
Sorry Rep. West, you’re not black enough if you have an “R” after your name.
Democratic-dominated? Are they kidding? Is that how they characterize the CBC? All the members are lock step doctrinaire socialists. Oh, wait, ok, I get it.
He’ll be the poison pill to the CBC! Go Col. West, go. I’m going to enjoy watching them implode when he starts telling them like it is in his very direct manner.
WOOOO HOOO!!!
Now we will see if the CBC is more than just racist. They can’t exclude West because of his race. Lets see if they discriminate (as I believe they do) based upon political ideology.
I love this, West might well be the catalyst that the CBC needs in order to see the errors of its ways, and STOP engaging in behaviors which deliberately keep the Black community impoverished and dependent.
This is going to be good!
Against Alan West, a man with close quarters combat experience in Iraq and in politics, the CBC does not stand a chance.
“Red pill Blue pill” moment! LOL
I like him a lot. I started donating to him prior to his first try. He would have won had the GOP put some effort in helping him, but they did very little if anything. In spite of that, he came very close in a solidly democrat area.
Be proud to be Canadian. I love America but right now, with Obama at the helm, it’s going through its “Pierre Trudeau” phase. America will get through this Marxist sh*tstorm eventually.
Brave man to enter a pit of vipers
One of the major reasons for the financial meltdown of teh USA.
Also thank McCain of MCCain Feingold for giving them power in 2006/2008 and for Obama.
I'm hoping that experience is repeated in 2 years with Charles Lollar in Southern Maryland. Wouldn't it be great to finally give Steny Hoyer his walking papers in 2012?
This should be fun.
I will bet any of you $100 that Rangel and Waters will find some excuse to deny him entry.
he he he he he he he........................remember west is best!
When black pigs fly!
That dependency is their sole source of power.
West will be allowed to attend, but I guaran-dam-tee ya that they will expect him to sit in the back. What he does at that point will be interesting, fer sure.
The CBC will malign and lie about him just like they do any and every other conservative black. And 95% of the MSM and 95% of american blacks will nod in unison.
