GRETA VAN SUSTEREN, FOX NEWS HOST: Did you hear what Congressman Allen West said? Well, hold onto your seat. He compared President Obama to a dictator. The congressman made those remarks during a recent appearance on "The Laura Ingraham Show." And to be specific, Congressman West said President Obama showed, quote, "third world dictator-like arrogance" during his budget speech. So what did he mean? Let's ask him.
Congressman Allen West of Florida joins us. Good evening, Congressman. Those are pretty tough words for the president. I know you have a lot of passion about your views, but the words -- any -- you want a do-over on that, or you stand by those words?
REP. ALLEN WEST, R-FLA.: Good evening. Happy Easter, Greta. And I do stand by those words. And perhaps one of the things that many people need to understand is that the truth needs to be said. When I go around and I talk to people down here in my district and we get phone calls, that speech that was given last week Wednesday was absolutely beneath the statesmanship or the atmosphere or the aura of the personality that the president should show.
I am sick and tired of this class warfare, this Marxist, demagogic rhetoric that is coming from the President of the United States of America. It is not helpful for this country and it's not going to move the ball forward as far as rectifying the economic situation in our country. And I'm not going to back away from telling what the truth is.

Indeed
If you believe Trump is a conservative, then you have drunk his Kool Aid. Trump is anything but.
Allen West would get my vote in a jiffy
Allen West would get my vote in a jiffy
More, heck I would settle for one more like him, we don’t have any one to help him as far as I see.
I can’t be disappointed in the house leadership, they are performing exactly the way I said they would, aarrgh.
Beck is going to give him a full hour on tv in may, some time on Thursday next week radio show.
You guys need to YouTube some of his comments on Islam.
you can be proud of him
I like Sarah too, but I’m gonna say that Mr. West has considerably more mettle than she, and that is saying something.
I’d prefer Mr. West at this time, we need someone with a backbone of titanium, he fits that bill.
He doesn’t afraid of anything.
Remember the Soros media pushed McCain on us and never must we allow them to push their candidate on us. I voted for McCain but he was not my first or second choice, and I refuse to vote for a third party candidate who well never have a chance
"Allen West is the man!! All men need to take note. This is what a real man says and does. No metro-sexual double speak, deny and deflect, redefining what this and that word means crap from him! I love Allen West!!!! Congratulations, Mrs. West, you are a blessed woman.
I wholeheartedly agree!!
Well, I think that's a matter of personal perception. In my view, Palin and West are on the same page, and are true Tea Party patriots, which puts them in a rarefied league among politicians.
If CWII broke out tomorrow, they'd both sign up with the Tea Party Army without a moment's hesitation.
“A real man, a true hero. I would follow this man anywhere.”
I would charge the Gates of H#ll if this great man was leading the fight!
You said:
“Allen West for president 2012.
No one else.
That is all.”
I agree! (And I’m a Palinista.)
Greta raised her nose in the air and said she didn’t think he ought to call Obama a low-level socialist agitator. Poor Greta.
Absolutely right.
The other thing we have to put special attention on, is our open primary system. If we don't close that, we're going to get whomever the Democrats choose for us.
Can anyone say Mittens?
“Since when has that arrogant pos, who currently resides at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave been presidential. I haven’t sen it, have you?”

The current president is about as presidential as a squeaking door is musical.
Never ever again
