Allen West as Secret Service Director?

Comment Up

Washington Post Opinion piece excerpt:

In this role, a true leader, not a bureaucrat, is needed. Someone like Florida congressman and retired U.S. Army Lt. Col. Allen West would be perfect for the role. West has successfully demonstrated that he possesses the leadership skills of a combat officer as well as managerial and diplomatic skills of a congressman, exactly the traits needed in the next director. Highly competent and beholden to no one in the Secret Service, he would be a superb director

~ Former Secret Service agent and Marine Corps infantry officer Dan Emmett

Yes, good idea, then maybe West can start being kinder to Obama and better understand the hard job and all the good he is really doing for our country. West has been so hard on Obama and perhaps it would help him better understand what a wonderful president Barak Obama really is, one of the best in the recent history of our country.

Mr. Emmet left out the part of Mr. West's resume where west had to either resign from the military for unacceptable behavior or lose all his government paid benefits and pension. Funny you left that out too. There's a leader for you. Chose to cut and run just to keep his pension.
Love the Charlie Crist flip flopper graphic. Obviously since you're so in the know politically that Rick Scott was head of the company that stole the most money from the U.S. government. When can we expect to see that graphic? dick scott counting al his stolen money?

You guys keep regurgitating all this OLD news. Boring. West was elected to Congress in spite of why he resigned. I always thought he did the right thing so his behavior was not unacceptable to me and to thousands. Rick Scott was elected governor in spite of his company and no charges were ever filed against Scott.

So, why all the old rhetoric again and again and again? Do you have anything original?

West would be a great choice. His resignation was righteous and many know the reason he did this. He is a leader and cant be deterred from what the right thing to do.
