West simply demonstrated that he is a POLITICIAN - and as such, will do or say anything, to anyone, to get your vote (and his job).
His votes on NDAA and USDA Pigford, his “Justice for Trayvon” comments, and his backpedalling away from Odinga’s forgeries should tell you all about his character.
Yes, this writer is a Socialist. But even the blind squirrel found a nut: being a veteran does not insulate you from accountability, any more than being black.
His votes on NDAA and USDA Pigford, his “Justice for Trayvon” comments, and his backpedalling away from Odinga’s forgeries should tell you all about his character.
These were things that people could disagree about without anyone having serious character flaws.
West admitted himself that he didn't have the facts about Pigford and that he voted the wrong way. Maybe it takes some character to admit a mistake like that.
And Allen West's comments at different times about the Zimmerman/Martin case were a lot more complicated and, well, nuanced than your comment suggests. Unless there's something I couldn't find, it looks like you're smearing him.
No politician is ever going to please everybody. If you find Allen West so deficient, why not run yourself and see how far you get?
