    Don’t forget that Thomas Jefferson called John Adams a hermaphrodite.

      “Don’t forget that Thomas Jefferson called John Adams a hermaphrodite.”

      You omitted the content of the quote which gave you an opportunity to change the context.

      Rather, Thomas Jefferson said this of his friend John Adams (you are a man of) “hideous hermaphroditical character, which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.”

    If we judged every individual in Washington by the company they keep, not one of them would be worthy of the position to which they’ve been elevated. I’m sure that any of us could have an acquaintance that may be involved in shady dealings without our knowledge but should our interaction with them at a public event be a reason to cast aspersion in our direction? Some people join these motorcycle groups to gain a comrade re that they lack in their everyday lives. I work for an American made motorcycle manufacture and have attended many riding events with the Outlaw biker organization in attendance. We must realize that there are individuals within any organization that may have acted “stupidly” and made mistakes in their lives resulting in incarceration. That is no reason to label the entire group as criminals.

      That statement is so true!! but, you have to rememeber, the liberals live on both sides of that fence. Both Rep & Dem have been infected with progressivism. They were acurate when they said “Lt. Col. Allen West is a candidate that Republicans would not normally go after nor embrace”, but they were talking about the established Republican, not the new Tea Party Patriot Republican.

      I say let them think that the “established” republican party is the model and they will be blindsided at every turn, to include the voter ballot box. WTP can change everything, VOTE!!! Get your friends and nieghbors to go out and get their friends and nieghbors to go out to VOTE!!

      Side note: I am hearing about Tea Partys being held on the evening of Nov. 2nd that require the “I voted” sticker to get into them. More people should organize/promote these parties. It is a great way to get people out to vote!

      By filing suit against AZ, does our so-called Justice Department now have ties to illegal aliens and cross-border drug smugglers, kidnappers and murders? By failing to pursue the prosecution, are there ties to the New Black Panthers and SEIU thugs?

Secondly if people really knew most of these club members they would have a vastly different view of them. They believe and know more about the Constitution than most of our members in congress. If I was Mr. West I would embrace the members endorsement with open arms. This is a typical hatchet job by NBC and WOW am I ever shocked. I’m not attacking you ED.A just a few observations.

      I suppose NBC is too pig headed to realize how many things “biker gangs” (really they call themselves clubs) do for the community including hundreds of charity rides for different causes. They often have different get togethers to support their local community and often put a lot of money into the community. NBC wouldn’t know a good thing if it bit them in the back side.

Just like you cannot demonize all Muslims because of some extremist, you cannot demonize the Outlaws because of some who went outside the law. Now who is prejudiced in this news coverage?

      This brings up an interesting comparison… A rogue government see this opportunity to strike at America because they see we have such a weak leader (Obama). Suddenly we Americans are fighting for our survival from border to border. Now let me slip this in so it gives our liberal friends something to talk about, I’m a white guy. Back to my nightmare… I find myself in D.C. with my family when we are attacked. As we are running away from the Washington monument we notice two men hunkered down in good, but seperate defensive positions. I suddenly notice that Obama is in one and West is in the other, I take me and my family to the West position. There is no way in hell I see any good coming from choosing Obama as my battle buddy. I know West is the type of person that can be counted on.

      I agree, I wish I lived in Florida. Jeff Nyquist on his web site exposes a lot of liberal news cast.

      “If you’re not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you’re not a conservative at forty you have no brain.” Winston Churchill1874-1965

      Ron Klein is the Cowardly Lion, following along to get along. Allen West is Dorothy. The tin man is Harry Reid, Pelosi, the wicked witch of the West Coast; spokesperson Gibbs, the scarecrow; and Obama, the CHARLATAN wizard!

      The Munchkins (Bikers) in gratitude will give Dorothy the Ruby Slippers and GUARD her on her way back to Kansas.

      DING DONG THE WITCH IS ALMOST DEAD…WITHERING AND MELTING AWAY

      This election is West’s to lose. He’ll help ALL OF US find our way back to Kansas.

      I say this association is far more desirable than the anti-American Marxists Obama associates and surrounds himself with. At least the Outlaws are still patriotic.
