It\u2019s difficult to find a politician more emblematic of the new depth of Republican depravity than Allen West (R-FL), famous for bragging about his service, after being expelled from the military, and for supporting his campaign manager\u2019s call to take up arms in violent rebellion should he be defeated at the polls.  Here he demonstrates ignorance so blatant that it defies the imagination.<\/font><\/p>\n

Rep. Allen West is a dangerous man. We’ve shown the proud tea bagger’s proclivities toward violence<\/a>, surrounding himself with other loonies<\/a> and criminals<\/a> and absolute intolerance of dissent at his town halls<\/a>. He is the epitome of the tea party. <\/p>\n

Can you hear the theme song from Outer Limits playing in your mind when watching this fool?  I keep asking myself how a man like this could have ever been elected to public office, and can find only one rational conclusion.  Sane people stayed home.<\/font><\/p>\n
