Leanne, if all you do is watch Col. West defend his actions, do you learn anything new?  I've watched that video a dozen times, and every time, it infuriates me more.  He assumes that voters, particularly Tea Partiers, can't read, so he reads it for you.   The problem is, HE is the one who either can't parse the English language, or he CAN and he thinks we are idiots, or he really doesn't care because he doesn't work for us.  Which is worse, a traitor or a useful idiot?  Which is Allen West?  I don't know, and I'm not sure it matters.  The end result is the same.  Our liberties are being stripped daily, and the sheep will follow the Judas goat to the slaughter, because he has a big "R" tattooed on his rump.

Here's another view from some of the most erudite Constitutional scholars I know at the Tenth Amendment Center.

Billy, seems I was misremembering his (final) vote on the extension of the Patriot Act.  (He voted for it before he voted against it.)

But his most blatant abrogation of our rights came in his vote in support of the NDAA.  And he just keeps stubbornly defending his position and telling us that we can't read.

Billy, big issues like our Bill of Rights?  Do you support the Bill of Rights?  Because Allen West does NOT!

Let's see.  Someone votes to detain American citizens against their will.  No habeas corpus.  Warrantless searches.  Illegal seizures.  Oh yeah, no trial by jury.  The list goes on.

Yes, I was a big supporter of the "American hero" until he showed his true colors.  I guess you're a big fan of Marco Rubio and Ander Crenshaw, too!

Although even Allen West has a few things i dont agree with him on, I have to say he is with me on most of the big issues i support. You wont find a politician that you will agree with everything, But you cant deny that Allen West is an American Hero and a Great Leader.

Allen West is a traitor to his oath and to the American people.  Anyone who votes for the Patriot Act and the NDAA and CISPA has no business representing liberty.  The entire Florida Tea party slate for 2010 has committed treason.
