Allen West Doubts Tammy Duckworth's Loyalty To Country

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

Source: People for the American Way



Former congressman Allen West is angry about the Democratic picks for the latest House panel investigating the 2012 Benghazi attack. Speaking yesterday with Janet Mefferd, West criticized Elijah Cummings, Adam Smith, Adam Schiff, Linda Sanchez and Tammy Duckworth, the Democratic lawmakers picked to fill the party’s five slots on the 12-member GOP-led “special committee.”

West especially raised doubts about Duckworth, a veteran who lost both of her legs and the use of her right arm in the Iraq War, raising suspicions about her loyalty to the country.

“Tammy Duckworth, you know I just don’t know where her loyalties lie, for her to have been a veteran and a wounded warrior for the United States Army, she should know that this is not the right thing and hopefully she will remember the oath of office that she took as an Army officer and not the allegiance I guess she believes she has to the liberal progressives of the Democrat [sic] party,” West said.

He also attacked Sanchez for the “whiny way that she has,” called Smith a “geeky little debater” and said Cummings “should not be on that committee.”

Fucking douche

[sarge43]

1. Your assessment of that lump of fecal material is too kind. nt

[roguevalley]

41. shades of Saxby Chamblis and Max Cleland. Nothing like

complete tools flapping their mouths.

[sarge43]

66. When pond scum wants to be insulting, West and Chamblis will be mentioned n/t

[yallerdawg]

2. Question her allegiance?

This is an example of the sickness that is Republicanism.

[Timez Squarez]

3. Do us all a favor, West

Staple your mouth shut. And go away. Go find a toe to suck on. Go talk to Dick Morris. Just go away.

[elzenmahn]

35. Actually, I'd keep his frontal orifice in full operational mode...

...because there are fewer outlets for pure Right Wing Republican BULLSHIT than what comes out of said orifice.

The more people hear, the more people will see how low he, and the Repubs, will go. If the Dems play this right, they can mine political gold out of this. God knows they need it right now.

[ck4829]

4. Allen West is a terrorist

While serving in Taji, Iraq, West received information from an intelligence specialist about a plot to ambush his unit. The alleged plot reportedly involved Yahya Jhodri Hamoodi, an Iraqi police officer. West had his men detain Hamoodi. Soldiers testified that in the process of detaining Hamoodi, he appeared to reach for his weapon and needed to be subdued. Hamoodi was beaten by four soldiers from the 2/20th Field Artillery Battalion on the head and body. West then fired his pistol near Hamoodi's head, after which Hamoodi provided West with names and information, which Hamoodi later described as "meaningless information induced by fear and pain." At least one of these suspects was arrested as a result, but no plans for attacks or weapons were found.

5. What a raging scumbag.

Holy shit.

[Submariner]

6. I guess this confirms Pelosi made the right picks

if West got his panties in a bunch like this.

I'd still like to see Alan Grayson on deck in the batters box to fill in as a designated hitter if one of the other 5 needs a sick day. I'm sure I'd puke often listening to teabaggers belching Benghazi myths all day long.

[winstars]

7. Hey! Asshole, Allen West... Go back to that used condom you live in and please stay there...

Can the picture of Tammy in the OP make our point any more clear???

Please watch Tammy kick ass and take names in this clip:

and after you wipe your tears away from the love this women has for our country, send her some $$$ so she can continue the fight.

No BS, No Third Way, No No Labels Bullshit...

Who else are we waiting to support???

She is the real fucking deal...

8. i licked my chops when i saw tammy on this list.

she is a perfectly polished shiny mirror to turn their bs back at them.

[Lefta Dissenter]

22. wow

I hadn't seen that video before, and now I can't see it because my eyes seem to be drippy.

Thanks for sharing that, winstars.

24. Long time reader first time poster-this Catillo CEO of Strong Castle murder case advances to grand

After a preliminary hearing that continued into the early evening Thursday, Juvenile & Domestic Relations Court Judge Pamela Brooks ruled that there was enough probable cause to send the first-degree murder charges against Braulio Castillo to the grand jury. The prosecution will present its case to the grand jury Monday.

What a piece of work!

[gopiscrap]

64. Welcome to DU

[elzenmahn]

36. When it comes to veterans issues and issues related to the military...

...her credentials are untouchable.

I do admit to having some issues with her fiscal policies (too "Blue Dog&quot . But better her than anything the Repubs have right now.

[d_legendary1]

9. This is the second woman he verbally attacks outright

The first being Debbie Wasserman Shultz. I'm starting to see a pattern here. *Cough* *ED* *Cough*

[The Wizard]

10. A Republican leader and war criminal

attacks the loyalty of a genuine war hero. Allen West surly has small man parts.
Questionable military discharge (forced retirement), Teahaddist, failed to retain House seat after one term, Pox News. Next stop, the Ninth Ring of Dante's Ninth Circle. Normal people think Allen West is an asshole.

[Plucketeer]

11. Who knew???

Who knew - SHIT could be so vocal. Usually, it's happy just to be offensively malodorous. Sadly, this verbacious pile is not alone.

[shenmue]

12. Oy oy oy

What the hell? Just wrong!

[Raven]

13. I left a few limbs over there for my country, Mr. West. What have you done?

[Thor_MN]

43. He was "allowed to retire" rather than face a court martial for assault.

Rather than face the music for what he did, he walked away... I think just about any one should have doubts about Allen West's loyalty to anything. Allen West is the poster child for disloyalty.

[Half-Century Man]

14. Bastard.

You served on the line, I'll not question your commitment. Just your judgment and sense of justice.
Why do you suppose that everyone who served should think like you? Are you insane? Liberal Democrats are Americans you dithering idiot. Fighting to undo the catastrophic damage the right has caused for forty years is following the Oath of Service.

[Swede Atlanta]

15. Our Democracy is over.....period

I am in mid late 50s and I have never seen the level of vitriol and hatred in our public discourse.

Yes there was mud-slinging from the left during the Dumbya-Darth Cheney era but nothing like what we have seen since Obama became President.

The level of hatred is evidenced everywhere from the treatment of the President to this member of Congress who sacrificed both her legs in the service of her country.

How dare he even utter her name. He is a turd in the turd bowl into which I will not even urinate because my urine deserves better.

[The Second Stone]

16. Allen West is a classless jerk

who is an embarrassment to the uniform and even an embarrassment to Congress as such a high level of jerkishness is rare even for a member of Congress.

[warrant46]

17. AMAZING check out this LINK from 10 1/2 years ago

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x192572

Lots of people here thought Col West was a HERO

[Ikonoklast]

51. Those that supported West all have tombstones.

Lots of people here aren't what they say they are, either.

[MADem]

58. At least one calling him a criminal has one as well. nt

[abbeyco]

18. Simply put: Fuck allen west!!!

He's not fit to shine Tammy Duckworth's prosthetics. His war criminal ass should be in Leavenworth.

[Thor_MN]

46. Had he not "retired", he would be getting out this year.

[Turbineguy]

19. She's loyal to a different version of the United States

than he is. The reality based version.

[MissDeeds]

20. He is pure scum

Saxby Chambliss did the same thing to Max Cleland. God, have they no shame? Their kind really are lower than whale poop.

[Scuba]

21. This Viet vet would follow Tammy into hell. Alan, on the other hand, can go to hell.

[heaven05]

29. I truly doubt

that this despicable clown would have made it through our little conflict with the Vietnamese people. How dare him mess with Tammy. REPTHUGLICAN TEAHADIST SNAKE!

[awoke_in_2003]

23. They did this to Max Clelland, too...

a bunch of shameless fuckheads. Sorry, couldn't think of a nicer word.

[no_hypocrisy]

40. + 1

[3catwoman3]

44. Your choice of vocabulary fits...

just fine.

[sheshe2]

25. Allen West

is the scum of the earth. He needs to crawl back in his hole and wait to die. He adds nothing to the human race. Absolutely nothing.

[SummerSnow]

26. disgusting pig freak anal cesspool fuck shit abcess of douchebaggery

I really can't stand this thing. He is not human.

[3catwoman3]

45. See comment...

...#44.

[WinkyDink]

70. Honest to God, there isn't language strong enough for this....thing.

[Cleita]

27. All of the above and then some.

I hope he gets elected out of office.

[elzenmahn]

37. You can hope, BUT....

...these people are mere reflections of their districts.

If West is a douchebag, what does that make his district? Worse, in my book.

[muntrv]

28. Hey Allen! Go look for WMDs in Iraq!

[Oakenshield]

30. Absolute filth.

If there's a hell, there must certainly be a place reserved for absolute filth like Allen West.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

31. Sorry Mr. West,...you STILL aren't invited to the cool table at CPAC.

[liberalgunwilltravel]

32. disgusting

Frag the SOB!

[JohnnyRingo]

33. West has such a history of making statements like this...

...I've begun to doubt his sincerity.

He reminds me of a Limbaugh-like character who has to make what he knows is an occasional outrageous comment in order to stay in the news.

I believe when someone is this much an asshole, it has to be by design. He's incredible, in the true sense of the word.

[elzenmahn]

38. You may have a point here...

...perhaps that's where he sees his future - in RW Media.

He can take over for the Pig Man when he finally explodes or otherwise keels over from a OD of OXY.

[JohnnyRingo]

54. He certainly has the aggressive ego for it.

That's just what drive time listeners want to hear through the squealing static of hate radio.

[packman]

34. West has been drinking Agent Orange

piece of shit - waste of human flesh

[lastlib]

39. I question Allen West's loyalty to anyone/anything that isn't Allen West.

worthless pile of fecal scum.....

[tom_kelly]

42. Why are comments from this nut-job even covered? n/t

[3catwoman3]

47. Allen West's initials stand for...

...AssWhole

[hotrod0808]

48. Allen West just proved what a strong man he is

by attempting to bully and degrade a handicapped woman who became that way by fighting the war that his cronies forced upon The American People. He can go fuck himself in the mouth with a Remington, for all I care.

[sarge43]

63. Well said and welcome to DU n/t

[SoapBox]

49. OMG! OMG! OMG!

This Piece of SHIT Asshole, dares to crawl out from under his rock?

This scum just never learns.

Make this go viral.

[DeSwiss]

50. And this matters, why? n/t

[lunasun]

52. insane and disgusting - apologize & STFU West

[MannyGoldstein]

53. I do not approve of the term "fucking douche"

except for this one time, when nothing else is remotely appropriate.

[Major Hogwash]

55. I couldn't care less what Allen West thinks.

He's a total moron who questioned President Obama's authority over the military.
That's probably why they kicked him out of the Army.

[jmowreader]

71. They kicked him out of the army for being a war criminal

The war crime, and his removal from the Army, happened in 2003 while President Obama was still an Illinois state senator.

[Rhiannon12866]

56. Holy ****!!! Words fail me...

[MADem]

57. Yes indeed, your description of West is much too kind!

But I guess all we need to do is consider his situation, and compare him to Ms. Duckworth.

Let's see, one is serving in Congress, and the other got a boot up his ass and was kicked to the curb!!!!

[theHandpuppet]

59. He just gets better and better over time, doesn't he?

Rather like a rotting piece of fish.

[Rhinodawg]

60. Gee, maybe some vet will see him somewhere...

and teach him a lesson.

[City Lights]

61. What nerve!

Just when I think Republicans can sink no lower, one of them lowers the bar again.

Oh. My. Gawd.

[apnu]

62. Ok, which one is a Congressperson and which one is not?

Allen West, still hunting for relevancy. Keep it up Allen, your crazy reminds America how nuts conservatives are.

[AnneD]

65. The simple truth is...

Republicans love America, Democrats love Americans. EOM

[FiveGoodMen]

72. Republicans want to tear off America's mountain tops

...make its water flammable, pollute its skies, etc, etc.

They love the flag; they love authority; they love the WORD 'America'.

But they don't love the country OR its people.

[George II]

67. Maybe he wanted to be on the Committee? Oh wait, he got voted out of office and can't!!!

[WillyT]

68. K & R !!!

[WinkyDink]

69. Republicans have shown time and time again THEY DESPISE OUR SOLDIERS WHO SURVIVE.

[wildbilln864]

73. fuck that piece of shit coward! n/t
