Lieutenant Colonel Allen West (US Army, Retired) was born and raised in Atlanta Georgia and is third of four generations of military servicemen in his family. His parents instilled in him a very basic principle, love of God and Country. In 2004, when it was time to retire from more than twenty years of service in the US Army, he brought his wife and two young daughters to Broward County, Florida, where he taught high school for one year. He then returned to Afghanistan as an advisor to the Afghan army, an assignment he finished in November 2007.
Allen West received his Bachelors degree from University of Tennessee and Masters degree from Kansas State University, both in political science. He also holds a Master of Military Arts and Sciences from the US Army Command and General Staff Officer College in political theory and military operations.
"Education is the great equalizer," he says. "With a good education, any child in America can live his dream."
Allen West knows that for our children to live their dreams, they need to be safe. He has served in several combat zones: in Operation Desert Storm, in Operation Iraqi Freedom, where he was battalion commander for the Army's 4th Infantry Division, and in Afghanistan, where he trained Afghan officers to take on the responsibility of securing their own country.
In his Army career, Col. West has been honored many times, including a Bronze Star, three Meritorious Service Medals, three Army Commendation Medals (one with Valor), and a Valorous Unit Award. He received his valor award as a Captain in Desert Shield/Storm, was the US Army ROTC Instructor of the Year in 1993, and was a Distinguished Honor Graduate III Corps Assault School. He proudly wears the Army Master parachutist badge, Air Assault badge, Navy/Marine Corps parachutist insignia, Italian parachutist wings, and German proficiency badge (Bronze award).
Allen is an avid distance runner, a PADI Master certified SCUBA diver, motorcyclist, and attends Community Christian Church in Tamarac Florida.
Excellence is a West family tradition. His wife, Angela, holds an MBA and PhD. and works as a financial planner. His oldest daughter, Aubrey, attends Archbishop McCarthy HS and his youngest daughter, Austen, attends Parkway Christian School.
Steve Malzberg has fast become one of America’s most recognizable faces and voices on the political talk scene. He has been recognized by Talkers Magazine as one of the nation’s, “Top 100 Talk Show Hosts” several times.
His quick wit, passion and biting analysis of the days events have earned him a huge and loyal following throughout the nation. Steve is among the most sought after “Talking Heads” regularly appearing on the Fox News Channel and CNN. Steve has also filled in for Joe Scarborough and Monica Crowley on MSNBC, and was a regular contributor on the Phil Donahue Show.
Steve has been a guest host on stations around the country sitting in for Bill Bennett and Mike Gallagher on the Salem Radio Network, and John Gibson and others on Fox Radio. He’s also been heard on WMAL in Washington DC, KLIF in Dallas, WBT in Charlotte and WGST in Atlanta among other stations around the nation. The Steve Malzberg Show is heard nationally via the WOR Radio Network.
Steve is perhaps best known for his ability to snag the top newsmakers of the moment for interviews, and using his warm engaging personality to get his guests to open up. He has won several A.I.R. Awards (Achievement In Radio) for “Best Interview” in both the news and sports areas.
Steve’s ability to bring that same passion from behind the microphone to live audiences has made him a successful and sought after speaker. He has been honored by many groups including the NYC PBA, who selected him as their 2004 Man Of The Year. Other honors have come from The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, The NY State Shields, United Cuban-American Organizations, The Chinese-American Society, Retired Detectives of the Police Department of the city of New York, Detectives Crime Clinic of NY-NJ, American Legion of Little Neck, NY, The Department of Veterans Affairs; and Steve received the Distinguished American Award from the Bergen County NJ Chapter of the National Football and College Hall of Fame.

Don’t miss this one!
No, but she is going to be at a book signing Saturday, August 15, 2009 at 1:00 PM at the Barnes & Noble, 3600 Stevens Creek Blvd, San Jose
There is going to be a Senator Barbara Boxer Tea Party Style protest.
One person suggested this:
This might not be appropriate for your event, but after hearing Boxer’s [OK it was Pelosi, same difference] little whiny complaining about “well-dressed protesters”, an idea occurred to me, especially for the cameras. A few protesters dressed in rags ( maybe a Che Guevarra t-shirt or 2) with a sign saying “Dressed so Senator Boxer will listen to me!”More can be read about it at The California FR Board.
Yes! And here is a little taste of Jackie Mason talking about the media!

Folks, this is the ideal time for us to march on Washington. The Democrat controlled Congress will be back from their August recess and will be up to their eyeballs in their socialist coup d’etat attempt to takeover America.
We need to be there to hold a giant National TOWN HALL meeting to loudly say NO!!
NO to nationalized health care!!
NO to Cap and Trade!!
NO to global warming nonsense!!
NO to government bailouts and takeovers!!
NO to another stimulus package which would really be just another payoff to Obama’s political allies and union thugs!!
NO to additional big government spending!!
NO to additional taxes!!
NO to Obama’s planned civilian security force, ie, Obama’s personal fascist brown shirt army!!
NO to Obama’s fascist plans to bankrupt the oil, gas, coal and energy producing industries!!
NO to Obama’s idiotic plans on crippling America’s core industrial infostructure in the foolish folly of creating “green” jobs!!
NO to Obama’s plans to micro-manage our lives!!
NO to Obama’s plans to expand the Democrat voting rolls through amnesty for illegal aliens!!
NO to further unconstitutional expansion of federal powers!!
NO to the socialist takeover of America!!
We need tens of thousands of freedom loving American citizens to descend on DC for the 9/12 protest and also to spend a few days in DC either before or after the 9/12 national protest to also protest at the White House, at the Capitol Building, at the congressional office buildings and IN their congressional offices!! We need to invade the belly of the beast to directly protest these evil socialist bastards in their lair!!
Please plan on arriving in DC either a few days early and or staying a few days after our 9/12 protest to drive our message home!!

Want to be there so badly...Have only two days already on the calendar for dad and unfortunately one of them is 9-12-09. Think I could get Nanzi to loan me her jet for the day, so I could fly in and fly out?

Just got the green light from my better half to go.
All reservations are made. I’m in!
I have to fly in to Richmond in order to get decent flight times on the days I need. I will drive up from there to DC on Friday morning.
See you there.
