In reply to the discussion: Allen West: I've 'Heard' 80 House Democrats Are Communist Party Members [View all]spiderpig
(10,419 posts)143. This is the freak Sarah Palin endorsed for Republican VP
http://www.democraticunderground.com/125127471
Sarah Palin says theres one name at the top of her list if the Republican Party wants to go rogue in its pick for the vice presidential nominee: Rep. Allen West.
The former vice presidential candidate told Fox Newss Sean Hannity on Tuesday that the Florida Republican would be a great choice for the 2012 ticket. She argued that the eventual presidential nominee shouldnt think they have to go with somebody necessarily safe.
Top of my list is Allen West, she said. I love that he has that military experience. He is a public servant willing to serve for the right reasons. He understands the Constitution. He understands our national foreign policy issues that must be addressed. He has served. I really like him. There are so many, Sean, that are out there. And when I talk about going rogue, what I want to do is encourage the GOP nominee to not think that they have to go with somebody necessarily safe that conventional wisdom perhaps would lead somebody to believe that, if its somebody, quote-unquote, safe, that theyre not going to get beat up by the media, because no matter who it is.

The real question - will Mitt Romney denounce him, or embrace him like he did Birther king Trump?

According to people who believe in 'cosmic cycles' we will undergo all they did in the 1930's again.

1991. Or maybe it was 1981. Or maybe it was Adam West. Someone I know heard it was sheep.

Instead, we have many savvy people who can handle satire and they have a bowl of mixed nuts.

Given the fact that our foreign-born, Muslim President is a Socialist, this seems only logical

That's really a very rational explanation. Tories WOULD tend to perceive Socialists everywhere. nt

I know what a Tory is. Do you think royalists might be a bit paranoid about Communism/Socialism?
