http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2011/07/29/rep_allen_west_slams_tea_party_schizophrenia.htmlIt's a video, which I can't hear, but here's the text:
Rep. Allen West (R-FL) on Tea Party groups wanting to primary him because he now supports the Boehner bill.
"I think what we have to ask ourselves is 'if you're telling me that I need to vote no against the Boehner plan' then what am I voting for?" Rep. Allen West (R-FL) said on The Laura Ingraham Show.
"I'm going to stand with this Boehner plan and once again, if the folks who one minute they're saying that I'm their 'tea party hero' and what, three or four days later 'I'm a tea party defector.' That kind of schizophrenia, I'm not going to get involved in it."
There's such a thing as overstepping.
I'm for the cap plan that was approved by the House some days ago, but one has to take what one can get, rather than trying to grab more than what one can reasonably expect to get.
<<am foursquare behind John Boehner.
