This is why I love Congressman Allen West!
He will not take crap from anyone.
And he is showing Republicans how to stand up to the outright lies.
In this case, Congressman West told the truth about the Democrat National Committee chair Congressman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.
Congressman Wasserman-Schultz told total lies about Congressman West on the floor of the House of Representatives.
Not only that, but showing herself to be the total chicken s--- that she is waited until Congressman West was off the floor so he did not have a chance to respond.
Oh, but Congressman West did respond.
And how!
Here is the e-mail that Congressman West sent to Congressman Wasserman-Schultz and cc'ed the House leadership of both parties:
From: Z112 West, Allen
Sent: Tuesday, July 19, 2011 04:48 PM
To: Wasserman Schultz, Debbie
Cc: McCarthy, Kevin; Blyth, Jonathan; Pelosi, Nancy; Cantor, Eric
Subject: Unprofessional and Inappropriate Sophomoric Behavior from Wasserman-Schultz
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. Focus on your own congressional district!
I am bringing your actions today to our Majority Leader and Majority Whip and from this time forward, understand that I shall defend myself forthright against your heinous characterless behavior……which dates back to the disgusting protest you ordered at my campaign hqs, October 2010 in Deerfield Beach.
You have proven repeatedly that you are not a Lady, therefore, shall not be afforded due respect from me!
Steadfast and Loyal
Congressman Allen B West (R-FL)As Emeril Lagasse would shout, BAM!
Now what Congressman West wrote is correct. Congressman Wasserman-Schultz is sporting for a personnel fight with a favorite of the Tea Party movement.
Now what specifically Congressman Wasserman-Schultz said against Congressman West was the following:
“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.”
Hmm, I think that you, Congressman Wasserman-Schultz, supported something that we call Obamacare. Right? Well Congressman Wasserman-Schultz, did not the vote to favor Obamacare automatically lop off $500,000,000,000 Medicare? Why, shucks! Yes it did! Hyuck, yuck, yuck.
Oh, my bad! You, Congressman Wasserman-Schultz voted for Obamacare because you followed you Saviour, former Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, and wanted to actually see what was in it.
So, what about that Congressman Wasserman-Schultz?
What also upsets Congressman Wasserman-Schultz is that Congressman West is actually voting for something that could actually bring our out-of-control federal spending under control.
That would be Cut Cap And Balance.
And I think that Keith Hennessey gives an easy-to-understand background as to what Cut Cap And Balance would do.
Allen West wants to bring fiscal sanity to Washington. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz wants to make the federal government larger and pay off a slew of Democrat constituencies.
But, when pushed by a liar, Congressman West did not back down. And that is what has the left's undies in a bunch.
Oh, you know how desperate the Democrats are to assault Congressman West?
Some are suggesting that Congressman West engaged in sexual harassment of Congressman Wasserman-Schultz.
Unfingbelievable!
But not really a surprise.
This shows that when the left is losing the debate, resort to the victim card.
My hope is that this does two things.
First, not detract people from the serious debate that is the economic future of the United States.
Second, it shows that Republicans can and should fight back when the left takes shots at them.
If that is what we get out of this, it will all be good.
