Allen West, I Hardly Knew Ye

But what little I knew was usually pretty darn jaw dropping!!

On his way out the D.C. door (sure he'll be back, in one guise or another), he had a few choice words to say about the re-elected president.  Soon-to-be former Rep. West says no how, no way he's "idiotic" enough to agree with folks who think the president has sort of, you know - an obligation to raise taxes because it's a key part of what he ran on.  Hell no, says Mr. West.


“I have to tell you that I’m not such an idiotic person where I’m going to follow someone off into the abyss," West said. "This is a horrible political gimmick that the president ran on."
Seems that Mr. West is a true modern-day Republican, seeing no fault in running on one "political gimmick" only to abandon it once in office.  Like swearing up & down that you're running to stand strong for fiscal issues, only to consistently ditching them to zero in on social issues.  
Even if it was a "horrible political gimmick," it was apparently one the majority of Americans wanted.  Remember them, s-t-b-f Rep West?  Wondering if you forgot, since most members of the modern-day GOP don't seem to give them much value, beyond their vote.
