Just curious ‘Wolf, what are your thoughts on the Nazi Germany style, anti-American constitution, NDAA bill (Indefinite arrest/detention of American citizens here at home by our own military for any ‘terrorist’ type reasons the Feds come up with, no trial, no attorney, no due process, indefinitely) that was passed by our fearless leaders in DC?

It's another blatantly obvious violation of the Constition by our so-called "leaders," many of whom, frankly, belong in prison cells.

It sounds like you know the bill well and feel as strongly as I do about it. No matter how the ‘RATS spin it, when the day is done our, own darn military can be tasked by the Fed. to detain, arrest, incarcerate indefinitely, ordinary American citizens with no attorney, no judge, no trial, no due process for simply being labeled a ‘terrorist’ by someone in power. (Remember, Biden called the Tea Party terrorists!!!). This NDAA bill is 100% Nazi Germany.........and ALLEN WEST VOTED FOR THIS NDAA BILL!!!! He supported it! Unbelievable!!! He was my guy until I found out about his ‘AYE’ vote for the NDAA. (He will be again if he walks back that AYE vote, admit his mistake, and ask that we all move on. Heck, everyone screws up, he did on the NDAA.) I was for a Sarha/West ticket in ‘16 but not any longer.

Is there any truth to the rumor that Georga GOP is trying to recruit him to run for a House seat in his home State?

[Earthdweller]

BTTT

[smoothsailing]

Sure, there’s truth to the rumor. However, West has no interest in moving, says his family is settled and they like South Florida.

Funny quote from West:

“I’m not an NFL free agent”

Hey smooth. Feinstein and the Tea Party? Stay tuned on this huh? It is beyond pathetic that this nazi NDAA was passed in the first place and almost just as bad, along with Allen West, a tremendous amount of ‘republicans’ voted AYE for it!! The NDAA AYE voters have tried to spin the NDAA’s intent as ONLY to be used against ‘terrorists’ or ‘suspected terrorists’. BULL! When it is studied line by line it is clear to anyone who can read just exactly what this is and how/why it will be implemented and used in the near(?) future. I really hope West walks back his support of this NDAA bill and explains why he voted AYE for it in the first place. If he explains it well enough, I think Sarah, West and Rick Perry are gonna be the 3 choices fighting it out for the Repub. nod in 2016.

I think we're basically on the same page, bobby. The NDAA can destroy due process.

The NDAA is bad law, because it's language is subject to interpretation. This is most likely what tripped up West. When the wording in legislation means different things to different people, it leaves itself wide open to manipulation. Statists like Obama and his ilk love this kind of legislation. His buddy Holder and his hand picked judges can make this whatever they want it to be. And that can mean the end of ordered liberty.

West, Palin, Perry. I like it. It would give us a fighting chance. But you're right, I want to see the good Colonel walk back his boneheaded vote on the NDAA.
