Allen Wests comments that there are nearly 80 Communists in the House just wont go away. And CNN is making sure of that.
CNN anchor Soledad OBrien, for example, had a testy exchange with West on Thursday morning, confronting him on the remarks and demanding he name names.
From the beginning, OBrien was combative, vehemently disagreeing with Allen West regarding Ted Nugents controversial recent comments. Then they turned to Wests own remarks. After playing the clip, OBrien asked him about it, and West said that Communists have renamed themselves progressive but the ideology has stayed the same. Mediaite picks it up from there with a transcript:

Video of exchange at link.
“worth” should be “worthy.”
Fearless. I love that in a leader. Unlike the coward in chief afraid of a FoxNews interview...
WEST: "Okay. Soledad O'Brien."
Liberals love to confront those who they ideologically disagree with. But, when there is a liberal who utters nonsense . . . . crickets.
Whatever happened to Kiran Chetry?
Like he said in the video, “I don’t care.”
lol, lefties get spitting mad when they are defined truthfully. Keep at it, Col. West!
He’s definitely got leadership qualities, some might even say “mojo.”
Will they put West on the ticket and put the FIRE back into this election? Nahhh, that would be asking too much of the GOP, theyll need a set of b@lls to accomplish that.
At the least, you and I know that.
Communists have renamed themselves progressive
“social justice”= `My entitlements are mine, but your income is negotiable.’ [See: Moochie Obama and `pie’]
Next time Col West is asked that question, he should pull out the list of congressional members who belong to International Socialist Club in DC. There used to be a list of members floating around FR, about 2/3 years ago. I’ve lost my list, computer crashed. He should remind these presstitutes that socialism is communisian lite.
I got your names right here, Soledad, as of 2004 anyway. A very high number of well-known names are still in the House, and are still doing the things that Socialists do:

Surprise! Nancy Pelosi is really, and officially, a self-confessed Socialist!

And here is the list via the internet wayback machine. (From that page: At one time, the following list of members could be located on the DSA web site. However, Once this list was made public, The DSA removed the link to the Web page that listed the following members.)

Your parents had to really hate your sorry ass, to name you after the place where your old man spent 10-20 for murder.
From now on, I say we call her Sing Sing O’Brien! Has a nice Ring Ring to it!
There. I named a name. I also provided a link from his Congressional website to his page listing his membership in the Progressive Caucus where he is the Chairman on Immigration. He's my congresscritter btw. I am not a fan.
TS
I’m an Allen West fan, but the CNN anchor is correct. If West wants to say their are 80 commies in the house, he needs to name them.
