Poor Allen West. He was the undisputed "craziest" Republican in Congress, as Lawrence O'Donnell explained in the latest Rewrite. Now he's got some competition. Practically out of no where, he got ambushed this week by little known Missouri Congressman Todd Akin.
Anxious for West to keep his reigning title, election opponent Patrick Murphy found a brilliant way to remind voters of West's antics. Murphy didn't rewrite West's words. Instead he let children read quotes from West in a brand new campaign ad.

How about a piece on Archer Davis, who gave one of the nominating speeches for Barrack Obama in the Democrat Party Convention in 2008, but is how seeing the uttee failure of his policies abd practices, especially regarding the economy and the 16% unemployment rate in black communities, and said no more.....Davis will be speaking at the Republican Convention this year, you know!
Get ready for a similar attack on Daavis folks, by Obama arse sucker Little Lying Larry O'Donnell, as he is attacking Congressman and decorated veteran Allen West, whose district in Florida holds the highest percentage of black citizens that any other in Florida.
Joe McCarthy died for yours and Allen West's sins, Grandpa. After he was censured by the United States Senate. I almost wondered whether you'd dismiss him an anomaly the way you did Rep. Akin... You never disappoint my non-existent expectations, that's for sure...
Polls show he's probably toast in Florida, which is as it should be for someone who claims that 80 members of the U.S. House of Representatives are Communists... This first term Congressman is so gonzo he actually thought he was vice presidential material... Well, okay after Dan Quayle and Dick Cheney, that's not that much of stretch...

You and he have misogyny in common...
Responding to a perceived affront from [Congresswoman] Wasserman Schultz during a House meeting, West called his colleague "vile, unprofessional, and despicable," before concluding, "You have proven repeatedly that you are not a Lady, therefore, shall not be afforded due respect from me!"
Read his words in the article; he's Ann Coulter on meth...
As for the former Obama supporter who made Romney's mistake of trying to appeal to too many right wing sorts in Alabama, he'll doubtless find it comforting that he isn't the only Afro-American speaking at the Republican Convention. Utah congressional candidate Mia Love will also be given a cameo... Per my friend Will's younger brother...

Gee...championing Wasserman-Schulz now. And I have just be hearing how she has become persona non gratis in the White House recently, especially after her lame brain attempts to come to the rescue of the Obama associate Bill Burton, 2008 Obama campaign manager and former White House assistant, whose PAC was being roundly critized by even the liberal left wing media for its attrocious attack add trying to link Romney, who left Bain Capital in Feb, 1999 to a Steel Mill that was shut down during a bankruptcy proceedure in 2001, and the wife of one of that Mill's employees who lost his job being diagnosed with a fast developing, untreatable lung cancer when being worked up for a case of pnuemonia in 2006 (even though she never was covered under her husbands health insurance policy which he chose not continue under COBRA provisions, as she had her own isurance from her own job.
This lower than the usual gutter attack mounted on Romney by the associated Obama campaign personnel was defended by rabid partisan Wasserman-Schultz as having "all the facts in the add were true", while simultaneously stating that the DNC had no knowledge that the PAC leadership was connected at all to the Obama campaign. The lying bitch!
By the way, I see Charlie Wrangal has come out with a scathing put down reading the riot act to racebaiter Joe Biden for his "Romney will Put YOU'ALL BACK in chains" comment last week down in Virginia, a very offensive reference to slavery...just as ex Gov Wilder of Virginia, and Archer Davis and Rep. Allen West have. Seems that blowhard shooting his mouth of like that has hurt the Obamna/Biden chances of gaining over 90% of the black voters support in Nov. I would say, Cab Driver!
Grandpa, you need a time out...
Wrangel has how much influence after being slapped with those ethics violations? Man, you're grasping at straws...
What's weird to me is that I could only find this story on CBS and FAUX... My take: CBS is getting punked by the Murdoch crowd...
And what does any conflict between W-S and the White House have to do with the disrespect West showed a colleague?
Ah, I see. You woman hating issue is involved as well. I could recommend a therapist for you, but you're a little too old....
Obama's up nine in Pennsylvania...
If you are quoting the NBC/Wall Street Journal Poll, be aware that their sampling has 5% higher representation of registered Democrats than anyother national poll, Cab Driver. I much prefer the Quinnipiac University polling of likely voters, but nevertheless, Politicos averaging of national polls tells a much more likely story.
Better stop swilling the MSNBC Kool Aide!
What happened to the announcement of a debate with Ann Coulter that was in this top spot just a few minutes ago?? It was supposed to be Sunday at George Washington University. Is it off already?
Billy Long and Grover Norquist are appearing together at the Tampa Improv Comedy Club during the convention, two shows, 11:30 PM 08/28/2012 and 1 AM 08/29/2012, doing an act called "Funniest Celebrity in Washington D.C."
Billy told us when he got to be our congressman he was going to do the right thing for the right reasons, everyday. I wonder if that includes Tampa.
Billy Long is my congressman from MO7. He is also a professional auctioneer and a high stakes poker player.
His FEC reports show he paid for 4 trips to Las Vegas using campaign funds. The last trip he stayed at the Venetian Hotel who just happened to be holding a high stakes Texas Hold'em poker tournament. He spent about $900 on a room.
Long is also the guy who mocked the death of Amy Winehouse, mocked tornado drills in Joplin and sponsored a bill because "they asked me to drop a bill".... they being lobbyists for the Auctioneer's Association.
He's also the guy who turned over to the FBI the names of 6 bloggers they "were worrisome" to him. The FBI started interrogating the bloggers and quickly realized they were just doing their duty, "holding our elected officials accountable."
Long was also overheard in a restaurant alledged using the "n" word in reference to the problem in Washington - as in too many "n" up there.
If you think Todd Akin is on the lunatic fringe of Republican Party, wait until you meet Billy Long!
Reporter: "...what if the rapist was a black man?"
Prominent Republican: [silence]..."uh, no exceptions."
Stupid Republican Voter: "Hold-on-now!"
"...now imagine the rapist being...a black man..."
Sorry, but that's the only way they'll hear you.
Of course, black on black crime would make a black man the likely rapist for the estimated 16,000,000 black fetuses that have been aborted since the Rowe v. Wade Supreme Court Decision, 7rank. So what is your point?
Grandpa's racism is pretty obvious here. The actual estimated number of abortions performed since 1973 is fifty million (per a "pro life" site). African-Americans make up 13% of the U.S. population.
In his effort to smear blacks, he's given a figure that is nearly three times what a reasonable figure would be.
This from someone who regularly brags about his prowess in economics, statistics, and number crunching...
ohhhkay. So what if the Rapist wants custody after he has paid his debt to society? He is, after all, the biological father... yes lets reverse Rowe v. Wade, and let the new genre of movie dramas on the Hallmark channel begin!
"He's my son! I raped you, what makes you think I wouldn't take him away from you!"
...now imagine the rapist had an attorney...
Pretty bizzare logic on both of your parts. Rapists should get 20 years, if its second or third or more offenses, life in prison, where they can esperience daily the plight of their victims, is my take on it. So, unless its some liberal, bleeding heart judge that thinks the hardened criminal types can be rehabilitated, 7rank, there won't be nobody "taking possession" of the child of a racist, not at 20 years of age or so in the case of forcible rape.
As to the cases of statuatory rape, or pregnancies of consesual sex, that is a matter of the family court, alway has been, always will be, with the mother having custody of the child if she wants to have it, and not offer it up for adoption. Unswed fathers often get visitation rights, if they apply for them.
Remember, the issues of any legislation that focuses on denying federal funds to pay for abortion in the case of statuatory rape, but not forcible rape that was being proposed, but not passed, does not attempt to negate the Rowe v. Wade Supreme Court decision.
As to you, Cab Driver, while 13% of the American total population are black citizens, fully 32% of all abortions that took place in this country since 1973. were terminations of black women's pregnancies. Hence the accurate 16,000.000 of 50,000,000 abotions conducted were black fetuses condemmed to death.
This just in as I write this: All day there had been news of a UConn female student being raped as she walked back to her dorm on the UConn Storrs Campus, but on the night news, the story changed as UConn police determined after their investigation that this was a false report by the student. Not the first or the last hysterical false report of rape...whether this female was trying to cover up a pregnancy, or simplya "troubled" attention seeking individual, awaits further information. Happens all the time, every week across our country, folks. So due diligence on is necessary.
You need another time out, Granpa...
http://www.census.gov/compendia/statab/2012/tables/12s0101.pdf
The way I read this one, the percentage of black women who had abortions during 1990-2007 was around 6.5%; You aren't any better at math than you are English. This is consistent with black children being raised in single parent homes...
And how many of those women had multiple abortion procedures over that 18 year time period Cab Driver. And the statistics I quoted weren't for 1990-2007, that was 32% of the 50,000,000 abortions between 1973 and 2011 in this country, a 41 year period, Cab Driver, which if those 16,000,000 abortions had not occurred would have led to black citizens in our country making up 20% of our nations population, instead of 13%, or the leading minority group instead of the 2nd leading minority group in the nation. And the large majority of those additional 16,000,000 black citizens would be voters today. So who has the racist agenda, the Democrat Party with its pro-abortion policies and practices, or the Republican Party with it's Pro-Life, anti-abortion policies and practices? Do the math, and do try to pay attention!
