Allen West Out At PJ Media

[Berlin Expat]

Source: Buzzfeed

Former Congressman Allen West is leaving his job at Pajamas Media after an altercation with a female staffer in which he allegedly called her a “Jewish American princess,” BuzzFeed learned on Thursday.

“In order to focus on political interests, Allen West will transition from his full-time role as director of programming for Next Generation.TV to a twice-a-month contributor of written commentary on PJMedia.com, effective October 1, 2013,” PJ Media financier Aubrey Chernick wrote to staff in an email from September 16. “I wanted our staff and consultants to have this information first. However, PJ Media is not announcing this publicly for several weeks, so please do not share this news with anyone outside of the company until you see our public announcement.”

In a message to staff, West wrote: “Shortly, I will be giving up my position as director of programming at Next Generation.TV to get back on the front lines to expand the message of constitutional conservatism across our country.”

Two sources familiar with what happened told BuzzFeed that West had gotten into an argument with a female employee and called her a “Jewish American princess” while telling her to “shut up.”

No comment needed. Right-wing war criminal wackadoodle says what?

[leftynyc]

1. And he wants to run

for governor in Florida? Whatta schmuck.

[Sunlei]

2. what no republican backers want to give him a better job? after allll he's done for you!

[atreides1]

3. Another Military F**kup!

The Army should have courtmartialed this clown...but instead slapped him on the wrist and let him retire!

The other f**kup was the Army giving Hassan a glowing OER(Officer Evaluation Report), and then promoting him!

4. Black conservatives are some of the most virulently bigoted and sometime racist people

that you will ever have the experience of knowing.

[Archae]

24. You aren't kidding about that.

Just look up the black conservatives that write for WND.

Some of them make Louis Farrakhan sound sane.

[Mr.Bill]

5. He got resigned. n/t

[Happyhippychick]

6. This story is utter bullshit

No self respecting Jewish American Princess would work for Pajamas Media *


* I'm Jewish so I can say that!

[Happyhippychick]

9. Holidays were so early this year, too

[Behind the Aegis]

10. Channukah starts the day before Thanksgiving!

Shop early!

[Happyhippychick]

13. I heard that, has it ever been that early?

[Behind the Aegis]

18. A few times in my life.

I think there was one year where the last day was on Thanksgiving, but that was when I was a child.

[monmouth3]

11. Maybe she's the boss...I don't think he would be able to handle that...LOL..n/t

[JBoy]

7. He was going to resign "to spend more time with his family"

but they didn't want him.

[Behind the Aegis]

12. Well, at least when he says "The Jews did it!", in this case he might be right.

I just wonder how deep his anti-Semitism runs. Of course, there are those who won't think this is anti-Semitism, because...well, who the fuck knows...anything to minimize anti-Semitism.

[Berlin Expat]

15. There's a good deal of

latent anti-Semitism on the right - it's typically under the surface.

Despite the protestations of the Christian fundamentalists as to how much they love Israel and the Jewish people, the sad reality is that they see the Jewish people as nothing more than fodder for their eschatological beliefs.

[Behind the Aegis]

19. Oh, I know. There is also lots of "above the surface" anti-Semitism too.

The hardcore fundies are the worst. They really don't see themselves as anti-Semites, but boy howdy, they sure are. As you said, we are a means to their end.

[rurallib]

14. Now, Allen, don't you dare sign up for Obamacare

Boehner says so.
And don't even think about food stamps.

[boguspotus]

16. I wish he had to try to sign up for those things...

But since he was a Congressperson at one time - doesn't he get heath care free for life?? What a piece of crap asshole......

[47of74]

22. That is one of my biggest gripes about Congress.

Pieces of shit like West get this stuff at our expense.

[LTR]

26. I think he would have had to serve two terms to get lifetime benefits

He only served one.

[navarth]

17. what the fuck is pajamas media?

maybe I don't want to know...

If an asshole like west worked there.....probably a nest of assholes.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

23. It's an optimistic view of how right wingers watch their media.

Soiled Underpants and Pizza Stained Wifebeater Media isn't appealing enough.

[ForgoTheConsequence]

20. Tea baggers love Israel.

They just hates the Jews.

[appacom]

25. So true.

[47of74]

21. I wouldn't trust Allen West even as a rent-a-cop at the local mall.
