Allen West Reiterates Obama ‘Dictator’ Remarks: ‘Low-Level Socialist Agitator’

Recently, Rep. Allen West (R-FL) decried Obama’s “third world dictator-like arrogance.” That raised some eyebrows. So last night, Fox’s Greta Van Susteren, who was a little uncomfortable with the remarks, gave West a chance to walk them back.

No way, said West:

I am sick and tired of this class warfare, this Marxist, demagogic rhetoric that is coming from the President of the United States of America. It is not helpful for this country and it’s not going to move the ball forward as far as rectifying the economic situation in our country. And I’m not going to back away from telling what the truth is.

[...]
There’s a great depth to my conviction, and part of my conviction is telling the truth. I don‘t think it’s very presidential when Barack Hussein Obama refers to my colleague, Paul Ryan, as a simple little accountant, either. So I think that when you look at what a community organizer is turning out to be, it does seem to be like a low-level socialist agitator.

    I guarantee Col. West knows some people in high places. He’ll be able to make a few calls once the socialist smear machine gets in gear. And it won’t start from mid-level admin, either. It’ll start from the very top. I feel sorry for those who pull this tiger’s tail.

    PRESIDENT OBAMA’S LEADERSHIP:
    Where is our country headed under President Obama’s leadership?

    Legend has it that before civilization invaded the Mid-West, the Plains Indians used to stampede herds of buffalo over a Clift to harvest the buffalo for food. The herd had a lead animal that the herd followed to disaster or to the feast, depending on your point of view.

    Slaughterhouses are supposed to use a Judas Goat to lead the goats into the slaughterhouse. The Judas goat steps aside just before entering the slaughter house and the goats continue on into the slaughterhouse.

    In 2008, Mr. Obama was elected the leader of the free world. President Obama’s policies will result in the destruction of the greatest economy in the history of the world. The whole world will sink back into the poverty and despair that has characterized the Mideast and Africa for thousands of years. The oppression of the “Middle Ages” will dominate our lives. Except for the elite, the 21st Century version of King George III and his peers, the population will wallow in oppression and poverty.

    Is Mr. Obama the lead buffalo headed over the cliff, or is he the Judas goat?
    The question is actually irrelevant it makes no difference whether Mr. Obama ends up as the Dictator of or just another casualty of the disaster he is precipitating!

    Regardless of Mr. Obama’s ultimate fate, if we continue to follow him we all face the oppression and poverty resulting from the unbridled use of government force! http://commonsense21c.com/

      That’s nonsense. First, I don’t want inside-the-beltway career politicians, I want leaders, and West is a leader if ever there was one. Second, you people actually think America will exist in its current form in 2016? Our country is hanging by a thread. If we don’t win in 2012, it’s over. The time is now!

      Allen West has not been on my presidential candidate’s list, simply because he has not, to my knowledge, expressed interest in running – should that change I really could support him. My only other concern is that he is in the House. There has not been an president coming from the House in a very long time (I forget how long), and would really like to see a governor elevated (look at how senators work out). That said, his military background gives him ‘gravitas’.

      I like west also, and would vote for him in a second. But realize that with his strong character he will do something that will not sit with you. When he does, remember that he is acting as a leader, and leaders have to make tough decisions. That‘s why we haven’t had a decent president in decades. They all look to the next polling cycle. If West were to be elected I would rate his chances as being considered one of the great presidents to be very good.

      Let’s remind Mr. West that the American people so resent how Washington presently works, that a lack of political savvy is not nearly the handicap that Obama’s lack of realism and experience are. One of our greatest presidents, George Washington, felt similarly about his own qualifications to hold the office.

      I’m struggling with the irony here . . . we have one man questioning his ability to fill the office when he is so well qualified for the job, and another already in the office who is so single-minded in his misguided vision that he cannot act in the interest of the greater good.

      Mr. West, please, PLEASE take the same leap of faith taken by our first president . . . it means everything to our nation.

      I would support this man all the way to the White House and beyond – assuming of course he doesn’t become corrupt like so many others. Furthermore, he is completely right in every word he is saying: Obama is inciting class warfare whether intentionally or not, and that is not a presidential thing to do. Instead of saying “let’s gut the rich and spread the wealth around“ he should be saying ”let’s find a way to make even more people rich, improve the standard of living in this country, and reduce the size of the lower class by inspiring them to succeed on their own”.

I wasn‘t concerned about Obama’s arrogance before–it just worked against him and showed his ignorance of the opposition. After the 2010 elections however, his arrogance is more worrisome. He’s still out there strutting around, but I can’t imagine it comes from mere stupidity.

      Draft Col. West bumper-stickers and signs will be ready at the end of this month. Get off your butts and get to work. This guy could be our generations General George Washington!

      Yeah! We need SO many more politicians with integrity who will say it for what it is…

      The truth has no agenda, and we must all stand up and speak the truth.

      The time has come to stop being politically correct and start being politically direct.

      Ditto. The Colonel is the polar opposite of BO. He believes in the principles that have made our country great. A TRUE PATRIOT who loves his country. He operates beyond the pc bullcrap. He demonstrates courage & speaks w/ conviction. In addition he can express sentiments shared by many American Patriots & has the added benefit of steering clear of the Racism card that the left love to put forth when they are losing the argument.

      Alan West knows what he knows and he never hides his truth under a bushel. Like Glenn he stands up and says what he believes. He faces fire from all comers and his preparation and knowledge allow him to come out of every encounter stronger than he was when he entered. We can all learn from his approach.

      Allen West Sir, How about throwing your hat in the ring so that more of the American people can get to know how awesome you are? If anything you could build up your name recognition and be one awesome VP.

      Allen West is a straight forward individual that calls it like he sees and hears it. His criticism of President Barack Hussein Obama is honest and factual. When the President of the United States of America calls US Representative Paul Ryan a “simple little accountant” it’s time for real patriots like US Representtive and retired Army Lt.Colonel, Allen West, to take off the kid gloves and jump into the ring and fight to win. Let’s wait and see if the liberal left will accuse him of being a “racist bigot” like they do all others who dare express ANY opposition to Obama’s policies.

      As an Army officer, Allen West knows what he believes and isn’t afraid to let the truth be know on any subject. He’s sincere and honest and a man of integrity. Gender, race, religion, degrees are not what makes the difference between a good and a bad president. Character is what makes the difference. It’s simple, Allen West show‘s he has character and Barack Obama show’s that he doesn’t have character. Allen West is right. If Paul Ryan is nothing but a ‘little accountant” then Barack Obama, with his community organizr experience, is nothing but a “low level socialist agitator”.
      It’s not about skin color, it never has been about race or cultural differences, but about honesty and integrity. Most Americans will follow ANY man or woman who is the elected POTUS if he or she is a true American that preserves, protects and defends our Constitutional rights and liberties.

      Col. West tells it like it is. No political correctness here, thank God. Hope he runs in 12 if he waits until 16 it will be way too late. http://www.confederatepowflag.com

      He’s the only one telling the truth. Give him a little more experience and he’s going to shoot right into the White House. You can tell he means what he says. He doesn’t need a spine implant like most of the RINOS.
