Allen West Speaks At Lincoln Day Dinner, Quotes Confederate General
Rep. Allen West (R-FL), the Tea Party favorite and one of only two African-American Republicans in Congress, closed out an address to local Republicans by solemnly invoking the name of a Confederate general, Stonewall Jackson, at a county GOP’s Lincoln Day Dinner.
West spoke on Saturday to the Broward County GOP dinner, as something of a farewell address — he is switching to a nearby district, after his own was redrawn in a manner that made it more Democratic. During his address, West denounced liberals and progressives for wanting to “enslave†Americans into dependency on government programs, such as food stamps.
At the end of the speech, West invoked the name of the famous Confederate military officer: “So, as I close tonight, I want to remind you of the great farewell speech of Confederate General Thomas J. ‘Stonewall’ Jackson — when he bid farewell to his brigade, as he was elevated by Robert E. Lee.
“And he said to his brigade that they would always be first in his heart. Broward County will always be first in my heart, and I will never forget you. God bless you all, and God keep you. Thank you.â€

Did he make this quote up? I can't find it attached to Stonewall Jackson.

20. More like Uncle Ruckus.

18. Did he shuffle his way off stage in tribute like the good "boy" he is for his masters?
Literally, he is the living embodiment of Uncle Ruckus from Boondocks. What an embarrassment to his race.

10. he's just another self-hating black man.
No different than Alan Keyes, J.C. Watts, Clarence Thomas, or Ward Connerly.

in the Army of the Shenandoah, The First Brigade in the Army of the Potomac, The First Brigade in the Second Corps, and are The First Brigade in the hearts of your generals."
By the way, Lt. Colonel West, Jackson was also never kicked out of either the Confederate OR the Union Army for any violation of military law. Don't you wish you could also say that?
Of course 11 bang bang has to take his shots at West. 11b wishes he was 1/4 the man that West is.
According to liberals all blacks must vote the same way or their is something wrong with them. And they call us racists. :mental:
-
I have a theory... I believe the dems/libs are scared of black folks that do good for themselves. Why? Because almost always they do it without affirmative action. And they are almost always conservative.

After reading this I have to wonder...who is the racist here.
I guess it has to be automatic if a black man is conservative he must be an uncle tom.
I find that to be sad, how can you be a progressive and black and be comfortable with that?
-
You people are pigs. :bird:
-
There is never a doubt as to what party is the racist party, it's the party that always brings up racism...and had the KKK...and hates black people that don't think the same.
-
You know, DUmmies are like Lincoln, they don't consider blacks as their equals. That's why the DUmmie liberal democrat party thinks they have to take care of them and do their thinking for them.
-
Here's to the democrat party the founders of the KKK. You had to be a democrat to join. :cheersmate:

Puh-the-tic
Racists, I'll add. Each and every one of 'em.

"Uncle Tom" is liberal code for the n-word.

Wow DUmmies...racist much?
Thank you for continuing to prove the fact that you are incapable of dealing with or even comprehending someone of color that doesn't walk in lockstep with your communist dictatorial view of how this country should be run.

Military History obviously wasn't one of 11-butthead's strong suites.
The Generals and officers that resigned their comissions in the Union Army and served in the CSA were basically men without a country after the war. They had to apply for and sign amnesty petitions that had to be approved by President Jackson. To a lot of people in the Union they were considered traitors and people having comitted acts of treason.
I know for a fact LTC West was never accused of that nor had to sign any kind of amnesty petition.
Oh and FWIW...LTC West retired with fully military benefits and rights after 20 years of service.
Suck it DUmmies. :bird: :loser:

If they were truly as "progressive" and as non racist as they try to convince themselves and everyone else they are, they would NOT use such racist language. There's NO reason they can't say the same thing without bringing such disgusting language into the conversation. That blacks, regardless of political persuasion, would let this kind of thing stand...well guess that tells you how oppressed and intimidated they are of their liberal white masters. Allen West is brave enough to buck the system, to think for himself and for that to have vicious attacks leveled at him from the left. What the hell is wrong with these people? They're the most hateful, vile people on the planet and they aren't capable of the self examination required to see just how hateful they are.

To a certain extent I'm happy when they reveal themselves in this manner. It pulls back the curtain and lets people see the true ugliness that is at the core of all Liberals...otehrwise they'd be able to get away with the lie that they are the all loving color blind big hearted compassionate souls they claim to be.
The truth often has funny ways of revealing itself...and conservative people of color to the DUmmies...has the same effect that a red cape does when you wave it at a bull.
The mask of calm compastionate Liberalism falls off and the ugly mean Old South Democrat racist bigot comes shining through.
I for one hope they never change.

11 Bonehead is truly a idiot.
-
I can't believe they said such racist things and don't even see it :thatsright:
-
I can't believe they've gotten away with this, without a tremendous backlash. I think it's utterly racist, and it floors me how they say it right out loud.

Neither was LTC West, poser. He was honorably retired with full honors and benefits.
Don't you wish you could also say that?
LTC West was an actual soldier that served in actual combat, don't you wish you could say that?

I always found it sad that the DUmmies ridicule People like Allen West yet hold people like Shelia Jackson Lee, John Conyers or Maxine Waters in high esteem.

I thought 'Uncle Tom' had been banned at DU as racist.

They want to keep them dependent on the gubmint, so they can guarantee their vote. Naw, DUmmies, that ain't racist! Ya ****in' scumbags!

Nyone know of a popular African American blog we could paste these comments on? Me thinks the DUmmies would get a groundswell of new Black members!

Like tese asshats pay any attention to rules. If your post count is high enough, and you contribute to Skinner's cruise ship addiction, you'll always get a pass!

Shall we compare Colonel West, who was doing his duty as he saw fit to protect his troops from ambush, to another current U.S. Representative and hero of the Left from an adjoining district in Broward County, one Alcee Hastings? The same Alcee Hastings who, after being appointed a U.S. District Judge, was impeached, convicted and removed by Congress on bribery and perjury charges stemming from a racketeering trial he was adjudicating?
I'll take the decorated soldier any day over that scum.

Delilah, just WHO is advising this poor man on his facts ????
Lets just hope no one mentions to him that Manhattan is an island and we don't anticipate it tipping over due to population-----yet.
This man is not stupid, he just watches too many cartoons. :cheersmate: to everyone in that room that kept their compousure.
I have to go watch that again, that is a classic, great find.
