Hysteria seems to be at work! What Col West supported was a bill that would raise the ceiling just enough to get into 2012 when the debate would have to happen again but under the conditions that a BBA would be passed and sent to the states for ratification. The bill would also have cut a moderate amount of spending and slowed automatic ‘appropriations increases’. To believe Allen West was somehow compromised in his principles is to not comprehend what a man of principle Col Allen West is. This schism being amplified by such racial crap being tossed into the mix is disgusting to witness at Freerepublic.
As for the racial garbage, I agree. Completely, totally uncalled for. I can't remember ever calling anyone out for a statement like that here on FR
