West to shake up Washington!!! Oy
   
http://www.palmbeachpost.com/news/state/allen-west-fier...

Excerpt from PBPost on this A-hole

The man who's both loved and reviled for his fiery rhetoric — one passion-filled speech calling on people to fight against a "tyrannical government" has been viewed more than 2.3 million times on YouTube — isn't storming the Capitol to plant a "Don't Tread On Me" tea party flag on the lawn.

But he is gearing up for battle.

One big clue: When West arrived in Washington three weeks ago for orientation for new members of Congress, he wasn't toting a high-end Gucci briefcase. As he worked the halls of Congress, West carried his camouflage military helmet bag, replete with patches from every unit he served with.

West is 100 percent military. His 22-year career in the Army — not counting his time in high school ROTC or his later work as a military contractor in Afghanistan — explains much about the 49-year-old congressman-elect.

How will he handle himself as a congressman?

You just can't stand that the Tea Party put a black man in office.

Quite professionally I would imagine.

1. Well, he says he has a higher secret clearence than
   
Obama

This guy is a genuine nutcase - can't wait to hear the shit that will be coming out of his mouth

*cough* Alan Grayson*cough* cough* Dennis Kuchi*cough*

I'd say that West earned his clearance through valid background checks, much I did when I was in the Navy.  Obama was granted his clearance through Affirmative Action.

And that will be so out of the norm for the DUmb****s that it will give them great heartburn.   :fuelfire: :fuelfire: :fuelfire:

Allen West is awesome. The reason the DUmmies/liberals hate him, is because they are all half a man West is and West is pro-military. THANK GOD!

IIRC, if the 80s definition of secret clearances is still holding, then West would have a higher clearance.  As president there is no clearance level needed, you are the president.  I also recall several articles stating that as a US senator Obama could not get higher than Secret.

A black, conservative, no-nonsense retired Army Lt. Col. No wonder the DUmmies hate him. Unlike most black people, he won't sit on that democratic party plantation waitin' fo Massa to throw him a few bread crumbs, and this drives libturds bonkers.  :mental:

I'd be shocked if President Obama could get higher than a Secret (I'd be surprised at even a Secret), given that he has admitted to cocaine use.
