Allen West is out of control....
Edited on Wed Jul-20-11 06:16 AM by boston bean


From: Z112 West, Allen
Sent: Tuesday, July 19, 2011 04:48 PM
To: Wasserman Schultz, Debbie

Cc: McCarthy, Kevin; Blyth, Jonathan; Pelosi, Nancy; Cantor, Eric
Subject: Unprofessional and Inappropriate Sophomoric Behavior from Wasserman-Schultz

Look, Debbie, I understand that after I departed the House floor you directed your floor speech comments directly towards me. Let me make myself perfectly clear, you want a personal fight, I am happy to oblige. You are the most vile, unprofessional ,and despicable member of the US House of Representatives. If you have something to say to me, stop being a coward and say it to my face, otherwise, shut the heck up. Focus on your own congressional district!

I am bringing your actions today to our Majority Leader and Majority Whip and from this time forward, understand that I shall defend myself forthright against your heinous characterless behavior……which dates back to the disgusting protest you ordered at my campaign hqs, October 2010 in Deerfield Beach.

You have proven repeatedly that you are not a Lady, therefore, shall not be afforded due respect from me!

Steadfast and Loyal

Congressman Allen B West (R-FL)

4. The guy is a wacko
Before he was elected, he was taped many times spouting ultra-extremist right-wing craziness.
I figure he'll self-destruct in due time.

7. He's posturing for his constiuency and the Tea Party.
Not only going after a woman in The House, but the chair of the DNC. And trying to see if he can get away with it. If he can, he'll continue and others will follow his lead, giving him the illusion of political capital.

West is not satisfied to just be elected from his small community and represent them in D.C. There's more power and money down the road and he'll get taking the low road, not by creating jobs or protecting social programs his community depends on.

9. He appears to me To be the kind of kook who walks out into his neighborhood one day with an
Ak-47 and starts shooting: shell shocked. Even scarier is the fact that he now sits in Congress with eyes fixed on those he considers his enemies. Wasserman Schultz better increase her security. The debate is now at threat level.

10. Did Debbie Wassermann Schultz ever torture an unarmed Iraqi detainnee?
No?

Then "shut the heck up", Allen. Actually, just shut the fuck up.

Steadfast and Loyal, my ass.

12. He's scared of her
That's why he didn't run against her. He lives in her district. It's pretty pathetic. And if any woman is still left on his staff - they should all resign. He has one I know of who was fired from our TV station.

And Debbie is the most vile - please you pig.

14. This guy's career is going to end in disgrace, with some kind of
violent confrontation he initiates with a reporter, or a liberal constituent questioning him on something...think along those lines. Mark my words.

16. He'll probably shove a reporter's head in a bucket and shoot a gun off next to their ear.
Wouldn't be the first time......

15. She's not the first member of Congress that this POS has bullied. Remember Keith Ellison?
Without Ellison ever having uttered a word against West, Allen West said that Representative Ellison (a practicing Muslim)represented the "antithesis of the principles upon which this country was established." Because, you know, he's a Muslim.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/01/24/allen-west-keith-ellison_n_813159.html

Representative Ellison's truly classy, dignified response to this thuggish bully:

http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2011/01/25/140633/ellison-responds-west/

But, according to West, if you happen to be a Muslim, that means you "attacked us":

17. I like how it's "Look, Debbie" and he's "Congressman Allen B West" nt
asshole. I hope I get to the point where it is acceptable in this day and age, to judge him by the content of his character and call his ass what he really is: a little bitch.

19. I'm surprised he's not still calling himself "Lt. Colonel Allen B. West"
Because he loved the military so much that he decided to violate its Uniform Code of Military Conduct and very nearly got himself court martialed had they not allowed him to resign in disgrace.

18. I think he, along with the other pugs who called Obama a liar and
compared him to a third world leader, should be censured.

20. "Sophomoric Behavior"
Funny, from a guy who writes this in his official constituant newsletter when someone dared pointed out that a guy who wraps himself in the flag actually violated codes of flag ettiqute when he decided to take a flag scuba diving:

"Then it seems there are some who wanted to find something wrong with me diving with a group of combat Veterans, some disabled, with the Diveheart program. It appears that my taking a U.S. flag down to a sunken wreck (artificial reef) for us all to take pictures and video just riled up some idiot Liberals looking for anything to criticize when it comes to me. Well, doggone sorry, perhaps next time I will put on a tie-dyed shirt and jeans, dance around singing anti-war, anti-American songs, and burn a flag. Perhaps that would endear me to the delusional dummies out there who are probably just jealous because they cannot dive to 80 ft into a hard current and proudly carry an American flag. What a bunch of losers!"

This is the man's congressional newsletter, mind you.
