Allen West says “Romney’s VP Pick Needs Military Experience” – like the kind he has?

Various news sources are saying soon-to-be one term Republican Tea Party (GOTP) Congressman Allen (Walter E. Kurtz) West told a group of young conservatives at the Young America’s Foundation’s National Conservative Student Conference that military experience is the most important trait that presumptive GOTP presidential nominee Willard Mitt Romney’s running mate must have.

“First time in 77 years there is a possibility that neither the sitting president and vice president, or the candidates for president and vice president have served in the military … and when I look at the number one title for president of the United States of America is commander in chief, that’s what concerns me,” Kurtz (West) said.

West (Kurtz) says Willard needs to fill the holes in his own resume with a running mate, especially a G.I. Joe type, All-American like himself?

“I think that whoever Governor Romney is as a presidential candidate, he has to do his own self-assessment, self-analysis and understand ‘where are my weaknesses,'” Kurtz (West) preached. “Therefore, the person that I have running with me as my ‘fox-hole buddy,’ if I want to put it in military terms, they have to be someone that shores up where I see my weakness are so we can be a really strong command team, leadership team.”

Reportedly, West (Kurtz) laughed when a student asked him to weigh in on a potential GOP vice presidential candidate, but then warmed to the subject of essentially nominating himself.

“Oh man, there are cameras on here,” Kurtz (West) said. The congressman then went on to tamp down any speculation that he himself was ever a potential pick. “I was never being considered,” he said (until I threw my own hat into the ring right now!).

Of course, the last person Romney – or any other GOTP nominee – needs on the ticket with them is a former military officer forced into retirement after discharging his weapon next to the head of a prisoner he had just told he was going to execute. West (Kurtz) is a loaded mouth waiting to discharge.

Allen West’s ‘heard’ there are 80 commies in the Congress?

According to new reports as many as 80 House Democrats are communists; at least that’s what Republican Tea Party (GOTP) Congressman Allen (Walter E. Kurtz) West is claiming.

Kurtz (West) warned his uber-conservative constituents at a recent town hall he’s “heard” that dozens of his Democratic colleagues in the House are members of the Communist Party, the Palm Beach Post reported. Of course Kurtz (West) wouldn’t – or more likely couldn’t – provide any evidence his claim’s remotely true, and of course he didn’t offer any names.

It’s strange he should say this because just the other I heard there’s at least 80 Republicans in the House who’re half-wits.

During the same event, West said President Barack Obama wouldn’t have a public debate with him over their policy differences.

“I really wish that, standing here before you, was Allen West and President Obama,” West said, according to the Palm Beach Post. “We could have a simple discussion. But that ain’t ever gonna happen.”

When an audience member asked why, West said in “a mocking voice” that it was because Obama “was too scared.”

OK, let me get this straight; the President of the United States, won’t debate a freshman congressman from Florida because he’s scared of him? Right; well, perhaps, just perhaps, he just doesn’t schedule time to debate raving lunatics?

Congressman Kurtz (West) needs to read some history books, real history books, and perhaps he’d have figured out this shtick was already tried by a senator from Wisconsin who became rather infamous because of his claims; no one says “When I grow up I want to be just like Joe McCarthy”, and I’m fairly certain there aren’t a lot of children out there saying, “When I grow up I want to be just like Allen West, threatening prisoners and shooting my pistol next to their heads”.

First, Willard Mitt Romney decides Russia is our worse enemy, and now Colonel Kurtz is seeing commies in the congress … someone also needs to tells these guys this 2012 not 1980; and West should be very careful, because those 80 commies are probably after his precious bodily fluids.

West is very concerned about Iraq withdrawal?

So, Republican Tea Party (GOTP) Congressional darling Allen (Walter E. Kurtz) West is saying he’s “very concerned” about President Obama’s announcement that American troops in Iraq will be brought home before the end of the year, saying it was another “campaigner-in-chief decision.”

Problem for former United States Army Colonel West – who was forced to retire after discharging his weapon next to a prisoner’s head who he’d threatened to execute – is that nobody really cares what his opinion is; and of course the fact the agreement to withdraw troops was signed by the previous occupant of the White House – one of the few things Bush did right concerning the war in Iraq.

You’d think as a member of the House Armed Services Committee, Kurtz would know who’d signed what, but as a GOTP Congressman, facts just never seem to matter; no matter though – whether Bush or President Obama initiated the withdrawal, it’s the right thing to do. How long would conservatives have us stay there?

West’s a dolt who’s destined to be a one term wonder – he wants to portray himself as some wonderful military/national security expert but he’s somewhere just south of Looney Toonville, something he has in common with an awful lot of the Tea Party darlings in Congress.

Congressman Kurtz (West) rides again?

According to Allan (Walter E. Kurtz) West, the only reason Democrats criticize him and Herman (Pizza Man) Cain is because they’re racist.

Kurtz (West) made his outlandish claim while whining to Mark Levin on his radio show. The topic quickly took the off ramp to Toon Town while West (Kurtz) was attempting to justify his immature emails directed at DNC Chairwoman, Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.

“I grew up in the inner city, strong values, came from a strong military family and background,” West (Kurtz) whimpered. “What we do is we totally invalidate the liberal social welfare policies and programs. And you know, I’m the threat because I’m the guy that got off their 21st-century plantation, and they cannot afford to have a strong voice such as mine out there, reverberating and resonating across this country.”

Yeah, the colonel figured it out, didn’t he? How thick does he think people are? Well, of course he must think they’re pretty dense because he’s calling in to talk to Mark Levin; but does he really think people are that obtuse? Progressives don’t make fun of him because he and the Pizza Man are black, it’s because they’re a pair of brainless, unintelligent halfwits who make moronic statements such as, “And you know, I’m the threat because I’m the guy that got off their 21st-century plantation”.

If memory serves, Congresswoman Wasserman-Schultz criticized Kurtz (West) because he had spoken out in favor of cutting Medicare, not because he’s black; it’s because he’s a member of Congress representing a district with a lot of retired seniors and his stance on Medicare is ridiculous. And it was West (Kurtz) – not the Congresswoman – who then threw a tantrum claiming she is “not a lady,” because I guess in the world of Colonel Kurtz (West), woman are supposed to seen and not heard, and here is a woman making him look as though you’d just fallen out of the dim-wit tree and hit every branch on the way down and his ego doesn’t know how to handle that. Well, with any luck he’ll only be serving for about one more year, and then he’ll become a footnote in some obscure history book about lunatic former military types who get elected to Congress, have their lunch handed to them and then disappear.

Congressman Kurtz goes to Washington?

One of the more high strung/immature Republican Tea Party (GOTP) congressmen, Allen (Walter E. Kurtz) West from Florida has resorted to email to call a Democratic colleague – who is also from Florida – “vile, despicable and cowardly” after she dared to question his stance on Medicare during the debate over a spending cap and balanced budget bill before the House.

West (Kurtz), a first-term GOTP representative sent his email outburst to numerous members of Congress as well as his target, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., the chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee.

The subject line of the email was: “Unprofessional and Inappropriate Sophomoric Behavior from Wasserman Schultz.”

The e-mail said: “Look, Debbie, I understand that after I departed the House floor you directed your floor speech comments directly towards me. Let me make myself perfectly clear, you want a personal fight, I am happy to oblige. You are the most vile, unprofessional and despicable member of the US House of Representatives. If you have something to say to me, stop being a coward and say it to my face, otherwise, shut the heck up.”

And what exactly were the remarks that were so upsetting to West? Well, it seems that during debate on the House floor, Wasserman Schultz said: “The gentleman from Florida, who represents thousands of Medicare beneficiaries, as do I, is supportive of this plan that would increase costs for Medicare beneficiaries; unbelievable from a member from south Florida.”

Wow, those really are vile, despicable and cowardly. Are you kidding me?

Wasserman Schultz was alluding to a GOP-backed bill to reduce the debt and amend the Constitution requiring a balanced federal budget which the House later approved by a vote of 234-190 even though it’s very unlikely to pass the Democratic Senate. How unlikely? It would be easier for Tiny Tim to play striker for Manchester.

In his email, Kurtz (West )said Wasserman Schultz has proven “that you are not a Lady” and “shall not be afforded due respect from me!” He said he was alerting House leaders to her “heinous characterless behavior.”

Once again Congressman West (Kurtz) has proven that he’s wound more than just a little too tight and is in dire need of some serious psychological help. This is the man who was forced to retire from the Army – rather than face formal UCMJ charges – after he discharged his pistol next to a prisoner’s head after threatening to kill him; yeah, the flower of the GOTP congressional freshman class.
