Andre Carson takes heat for tea party criticism
INDIANAPOLIS - Florida Republican Allen West says he is considering quitting the Congressional Black Caucus over remarks by Indiana Rep. Andre Carson, who says the tea party wants to see blacks "hanging on a tree."

West tells "Fox & Friends" he found the Democrat's comments "reprehensible."

4. This won't work out well for Carson. It is the reciprocal of political correctness.
