Does anybody else see Lt. Col. West as having every good thing that Donald Trump has, but with more integrity and without the baggage?
We need A LOT more Republicans just like this guy.
I watched the interview last night. She put a personal judgement on West’s comment. And yes, he didn’t back down.
I normally watch on the record every night but I went to bed early last night so I missed it, but if you noticed he did not let her interrupt him
Yep, I’d agree that they are on the same page.
It’s just that West blew my ****in mind during his Greta interview.
It is not often that I see a republican conservative speak as he spoke.
Excellent rep from Fla. and I pray he will go on as many shows as possible in the....black community as well as other areas so that black Americans can see a new, specific and conserv voice with true econ. and pol.sanity which will be a contrast to the Con Artist in the WH and the so called black leaders like Jesse, Al, Rangel, Jackson Lee.
I sent an e-mail to Rep. West thanking him for his straight-forward and honest comments on Greta’s show, and advising him that, as a Californian, I don’t have competent representation in Congress, so I am “adopting” him as my representative. Here is the very nice response I got just a few hours later:
Thank you for contacting me regarding your support for my appearance On the Record with Greta Van Susteren on FOX News. I appreciate hearing from you and having the benefit of your views.
I am truly humbled by your heartfelt words and your steadfast support. The results of November 2010 occurred because of individuals like you individuals who realized that our country was on the wrong track and needed to find a new path forward. The simple words thank you do not adequately express my appreciation for your unwavering commitment.
This victory is not mine; rather, it is yours to take pride in. Please be assured I pledge to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States and honorably serve the 22nd Congressional District of Florida.
The voice of the people calls for a revitalized economy, a reinforced national defense, and a renewal of the principles that this country was founded on and paved the way for American exceptionalism.
As a former Lieutenant Colonel who served 22 years in the military, it gives me great pride to represent this country in a new uniform and a new setting, and I am honored by the opportunity to make your voice heard.
Again, thank you for contacting me.
Very Respectfully,
Allen B. West
You couldn’t say it better! I met him at Freeper’s Tea Party Convention. (thanks again, Mr. Robinson!!!)
God bless Congressman Lt. Colonel Allen West.
Keep telling us the Truth.
Amen.
WEST IS THE BEST!!
The potential Republican candidates see Trump’s numbers skyrocketing because he tells it like it is and is not afraid. I think a few have finally figured out that this is the way to get recognised as a leader. The dems never hold back like the fraidy cat pubs do. We need some new, brave blood.
Cong Allen West
Lieutenant Colonel Alan West
Mmmmm.......there's something about a man in uniform.
I like his nascar driver quote.
I am praying he runs.
yes she does.. WHOLESOME!
DANG!
Truth hurts, doooon’t it?
You go, Col. West....[saluting here]
Please run for president. It would be sooooo nice to be proud of a president and his wife again!
Couldn’t agree with you more... a true LEADER
