One of the things that endeared the current crop of freshman congressmen to the public during the election was their preparedness and willingness to engage the other side without equivocation. Here's a wonderful example from Allen West. No half-hearted, dopey kumbaya, can-we-all-just-get-along inclinations here. I have a feeling that this new group will make history.

Can anyone find/produce a transcript of the citations of Rep. West during the audience commotion?  That's the point he was making and it is lost in this video.

I think I'm in love.

But I, too, would like to see a transcript. So much of what he said was drowned out by the crowd.

Typical lefty, identity politics response. We give them facts; they call us racist.

The man never pulls a punch.

I have enormous respect for that.

We need about 350 more just like him.

Here's a link to another West statement that probably says the stuff that the audience drowned out.

I have never been comfortable with the always unsited "religion of peace" meme. I've seen this type of "woodshed moment" applied by Rep. West via YouTube twice now and agree with oleneo65 above. I pray for his safety because he is well & truly marked!
