Prez made a new friend today

[Doctor_J]

Some Allen West quotes:

- "This liberal progressive agenda... is the antithesis of who we are as a constitutional republic."

- "What is conservatism? Is it not the adherence to the old and tired against the new and untried?' I would say this, if Abraham Lincoln was standing here today: Liberal progressivism ... has been tried. It has repeatedly failed, all over the world. So why would we think it can be successful here, in our United States of America?"

- "If we are to have a new dawn in America, it means reclaiming our Judeo-Christian faith heritage."

- "I think one of the critical things that we must come together is that there is an infiltration of the Sharia practice into all of our operating systems in our country as well as across Western civilization. So we must be willing to recognize that enemy. We cannot have a national security strategy that does not recognize it in specific and understand its goals and objectives. So once again, we can tailor you know our internal goals and objectives as far as our security systems, our political systems, economic systems, our cultural and educational systems, so that we can thwart this."

- "That Sharia Law thing is infiltrating the entrie country. I mean, out here in rural Eastern Virginia, when the cops issue a speeding ticket, they cut off the driver's right foot so he can't mash on the gas pedal."

- "Obama is a low-level socialist agitator"

- "I want to take this moment to commend President Obama for facing the facts that in order for us to bring our fiscal house in order, we need to take necessary steps to address mandatory spending such as Medicare and Social Security. For too long individuals and special interests groups have used these programs to demagogue and scare seniors in order to gain a political advantage. President Obama says he finally realizes that to save these programs we need to make significant reforms, and I support his goals.

Making friends with all the right people.

Edit: Maybe in his re-election campaign he can pose for some photo-ops with West.

4. .

kick to remind the evening crowd who the president's new friends are (until next week, when West calls him a socialist Muslim terrorist again)

5. This ass sure doesn't mind taking a military govenment pension or Tricare medical.

How dare this scum of the earth talks about getting out of the way. He is a prime user of government funds in his pocket.
