Re: “Rep. West is wonderful. I saw him on Greta’s show, and even though she whined at him in that grating voice, he never backed down. We need a whole lot more like him!”
****************
Agree — I usually like Greta but when she tries to be TOO ‘fair and balanced’ she is really annoying. West just rolled right over her and she caved — beautiful! Like someone else here said, I’d follow him anywhere -
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
