Allen West Rips President Petulant for his Friday Tantrum

The Real Deal versus The Poser

Via The Right Scoop, Colonel West exhibits the quality of actual candor, real "straight talk", one of the many personality traits that have endeared him with Tea-Partiers and others:

The President’s concern is about getting reelected. The President’s concern is that he is an intransigent, liberal, progressive socialist who is also Marxist because of the class warfare rhetoric that he espouses.And I think that when you heard him on Friday and the more he comes out and talks, the more truly out of touch and incompetent he seems.

Dude! That is rip-tastic!  TRS goes on to illustrate the point West used as a central exhibit of the President's class warfare argument; that while Obama claimed that 80% of the public wanted tax increases as part of any budget deal, that he neglected to mention that 47% of the public paid no federal income taxes.  Mr. West wondered aloud whether the President had knew of, or considered this, at all.

But it gets even better. West goes on to light up Sheila Jackson-Lee for her raced base remarks on Friday:

Attacking this President is not attacking his skin color. It’s attacking his failures. He has a vision for this country that is anathema to the vision of the founding fathers, in our belief in individual responsibility and accountability and our free markets and free enterprise system.

Gee I love that kind of talk. Now if only we could have that kind of refreshing directness come from the White House on a regular basis. Hey, wait a minute, I think I have an idea how to make that happen...

Chock full of Awesomeness!

What do you think kind reader?
