Allen West: Democrats Are ‘Afraid of Black Conservatives’

Rep. Allen West lashed out Thursday against what he described as race baiting by Democrats determined to defeat his re-election bid this year and keep Mitt Romney out of the White House.
Speaking with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, the Florida Republican described a super PAC ad depicting him punching white women as racist because it portrays him as what he characterized as a “stereotypical” violent, black male.
“It has me with a gold tooth. And I think you can see from my smile, I don’t have a gold tooth,” West told Hannity. “I think that that is quite stereotypical. And then of course having me as an African-American male, punching a white senior woman and then another white woman, that is definitely not in concert with the values that I stand for.”
The ad being run by a political action committee in support of his Democratic challenger Patrick Murphy goes after West for “voting to end Medicare as we know it,” cutting women’s healthcare, and supporting a GOP budget that “has mauled middle-class families.”
“I don’t believe in violence against women. But this is what happens, Sean, when you’re in the age of [President Barack] Obama and the age [of ] the liberal progressives,” West told Hannity. “You cannot talk about the issues, they cannot run on any type of record, you cannot talk about the economy, the debt, and deficit.
“So these are the type of attacks against your character, the lies that they put out there,” he added.

    This man needs to be covered with our prayers. On my esteem scale he’s right up there with Thomas, Sowell, Williams, Levine and a very few others.

    Allan West is more qualified to serve the People than anybody on the Left — as President, Vice President, Attorney General, Head of Homeland Security, or any other office currently being incompetently held by a socialist democrat.

    The man has wisdom and an obvious love for America.

    Democrats are afraid of blacks who think for themselves. Independent thought is not tolerated by liberals, particularly where black people are concerned.

    Lost Hope and Gained Chains

    (Via Hope n’ Change, on a tip from Shawn on Moonbattery.com)

    When President Barack Hussein Obama said with a straight face on “Entertainment Tonight” that ”I don’t think you or anybody who’s been watching the campaign would say that in any way we have tried to divide the country. We’ve always tried to bring the country together,” no one dared snicker and no one dared label him the lying hypocrite he is.

    Someone should have. He was speaking in a fitting venue, entertainment, but he wasn’t remotely entertaining except to his diehard idolators who still think his every word emanates from an Anointed One.

    In 2008, Barack Hussein Obama sold his candidacy to 52.9% of the electorate based on the designedly vague rhetoric of bringing hope to a war-weary, financially shell-shocked nation and he offered a blurry pledge to effect transparent, presumably beneficial changes Americans could believe in.

    Four years later, with wars still raging in Afghanistan and in various other Mideast countries, with armed conflict on the cusp of erupting in others, and with an economy barely marginally improved, many of us have far less hope that this president can accomplish meaningful and worthwhile change over the

    course of a second term.

    In fact, many of us believe government brought about the banking crisis by pressuring lending institutions to loan mortgage money to deadbeats who thought payback was optional and that, unlike Obama, thought government was the problem, not the solution. Many of us also believed, unlike Obama, that the United States of America was and is a damned great country in need of at most minor tweaking rather than radical alteration.

    Not unexpectedly, what we got was more intrusive government, billions in phenomenal misspending, trillions tacked onto our national debt which will impoverish our children and grandchildren, wildly imbalanced annual budgets, a first-ever downgrading of the nation’s credit rating, unprecedented and dangerous changes in medical coverage, and less transparency than Tricky Dick Nixon could have ever envisioned.

    In all fairness, however, and despite the questionable merits of Obama’s “achievements”, let’s give the devil his due. Obama has accomplished many of his unstated goals:

    . The president has succeeded in dividing the nation like it hasn’t been divided since the 1860′s and he continues to pit race against race and class against class with his campaign of divisiveness as if his political future depends on it, which it does;

    . The president has demonized the peaceful, law-abiding tea party movement while lauding the destructive, lawless Occupy Everything crazies who represent everything law-abiding people abhor; . . .

    I can’t see Col. West “lashing out.”

    He can give a spirited delivery, though, as that camelf_cker found out ten years ago.

    Aside from his most recent work on “Roots of Obama’s Rage”, Dinesh D’Sousa is a masterful Christian apologist and also a world class debator on the subject of race in America. See YT: “Dinesh D’Souza – Racism is not the cause of Black failure”.

    D’Souza picks up the theme of Sowell’s “Black Rednecks and White Liberals” and explains race and racism in a way that, if generally understood, would put an end to the Left’s Cone School of Institutional Racism. A lot of “black community” organizers would have to figure out what to do with the rest of their lives and 75% of the Left would disappear over night.
