West: Obama must condemn Hoffa

Republican Rep. Allen West slammed the Obama administration on “Fox and Friends” Wednesday for not condemning Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa’s call for workers to wage war on the tea party and “take these son-of-a-bitches out.”

West said that Hoffa’s remarks, made at President Barack Obama’s Monday Labor Day rally in Detroit, have “no place in the political discourse of this country” and he called on the president to denounce them.

“The president has to come out and say something about this because he gets on the same stage that Mr. Hoffa was on and now that he knows what was said,” West said. “And going back to January when he talked about civility, I think we continue to see the people on the left in the Democrat party, Andre Carson with the Congressional Black Caucus making a statement about members of the tea party and certain folks in Congress want to see black Americans hang from trees — there’s no place for this.”

“Perhaps Mr. Hoffa was going back over the weekend and he watched the movie ‘Patton’ where you know Patton gave that incredible speech before the Third Army and he tried to mimic that,” West said. “But it has no place in the political discourse in this country.I think what you see happening is that in order to stir up the liberal base, they have to demonize a certain entity and that entity they have chosen is the tea party.”

1. Alan West has no standing. His campaign had such awful things

to say about Obama, he had to change Staffers.

2. This is why it's important for Democrats not to buy into their framing.

They are always looking to keep Dems distracted and on the defensive and apologizing. If you apologize or condemn, that means someone on your side did something wrong--fuck that.

8. I think he is the one that should apologize... after all according to him he has a higher

security clearance than the President of the USA so he is obviously much more powerful and therefor higher up than Obama....The buck has to stop with him....
