‘Not a Lady’: Allen West Blasts DNC Chairwoman Wasserman Schultz as ‘Most Vile’ Member of Congress

WASHINGTON (The Blaze/ AP) — A Republican congressman from Florida turned to email on Tuesday to call a Democratic colleague from the state “vile, despicable and cowardly” after she criticized his stance on Medicare when he was away from the House floor.
Rep. Allen West, a first-term Republican from south Florida, wasn’t shy about his online outburst. He sent his peppery email to numerous lawmakers as well as his target, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., the chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee.
The subject line of the email: “Unprofessional and Inappropriate Sophomoric Behavior from Wasserman Schultz.”
The e-mail said: “Look, Debbie, I understand that after I departed the House floor you directed your floor speech comments directly towards me. Let me make myself perfectly clear, you want a personal fight, I am happy to oblige. You are the most vile, unprofessional and despicable member of the US House of Representatives. If you have something to say to me, stop being a coward and say it to my face, otherwise, shut the heck up.”
West said Wasserman Schultz has proven “that you are not a Lady” and “shall not be afforded due respect from me!“ He said he was alerting House leaders to her ”heinous characterless behavior.”
Wasserman Schultz had no immediate reaction.
In her remarks on the House floor, Wasserman Schultz said: “The gentleman from Florida, who represents thousands of Medicare beneficiaries, as do I, is supportive of this plan that would increase costs for Medicare beneficiaries. Unbelievable from a member from south Florida.”
She was alluding to a GOP-backed bill to reduce the debt and amend the Constitution to require a balanced federal budget.
West’s office did not back off the criticism after the email was widely distributed. A spokeswoman said Wasserman Schultz had taken “another cowardly cheap shot at Congressman West.”

Yes thank you for speaking your mind. I think West is the one we are looking for. But because he is an honorable man he will not run for POTUS as he says he has an obligation to those in his district that elected him to represent them.
God knows he has more experience than BHO so that excuse wont fly. Wish there was some way he could be convinced to run against the boy emperor. FL District 22 its on you to convince him to run I have no faith in the current GOP presidential roster. None of them can beat the BHO election machine. If he does decide to run the support from the people will be there along with the financial support. http://SavingtheRepublic.com
PLEASE LT COL WEST RUN FOR POTUS WE NEED YOU!!!

Posted on July 20, 2011 at 1:54amVery presidential. FYI a reputation for hot-headed rhetoric is not a good ualification for highjer office. BTW, any interest in what she said? “The gentleman from Florida. who represents thousands of Medicare beneficiaries, as do I, is supportive of this plan that would increase costs for Medicare beneficiaries, unbelievable from a Member from South Florida,” Wasserman Schultz said, saying the legislation “slashes Medicaid and critical investments essential to winning the future in favor of protecting tax breaks for Big Oil, millionaires, and companies who ship American jobs overseas.”

Mr. paul Ryans bill adds 6 thousand dollars “to my mother who lives in his district” to her costs. she can barely afford her bills now. and I give her 800 dollars a month of my own money to help her. Which i have no problem doing mind you, but she paid into medicare, and social security her whole life. and dont give me that “it wont affect her only people 54 and under crap” You rebuplicans have been trying to privatize these programs for years you should be ashamed of yourselves. And as for you Mr. West why dont you pick on someone your own size. You seem like nothing but a bully. I live in your district as well sir. Why dont you work on getting us back too work, instead of picking on a woman who dared to speak about you on the house floor without you being there. like that never happens. plese i see guys talking crap on cspan at midnight about other house members.

So we should cut her benefits she paid for to give tax cuts to GE FOX HALIBURTON EXXON whom got billions in tax returns while making record profits. So we should give subsides to corporations instead of paying our debt off by collecting fair taxes from everyone. that includes corporations. Man stop voting against your own interest. Cant solve 14 trillion in debt by just cutting Medicare and SS. we must increase revenue. as well as make cuts in military spending as well.

Mdicare part D is private alternative to the real medicare. Where the Private medical companies were overcharging the government by 14% to administer they’re private medicare plans. it was cutting waste. Mr. paul Ryans bill actually cuts 600 billion out of Real Medicare not private medicare. http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2010/sep/20/60-plus-association/medicare-cuts-health-care-law-will-hurt-seniors-sa/ read this. here are the facts by a non-partison politifact website.

Yep, purely racially motivated ! Where’s the liberal media that plays the race card each time Obama is criticized ? Where’s Sharpton and Jackson and all the other race card players on this thing ? Oh, Allen West is a black REPUBLICAN and he doesn’t have the right to free speach. That’s just for the demogogs, oh I mean democrats in politics.

Posted on July 20, 2011 at 2:10amThis appears a very thin-skinned over-reaction by West. Just adds to his reputation for hot-headedness, as seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJbly7IIzTs&feature=player_embedded

Posted on July 20, 2011 at 2:54amTIFOSA, there is a protocol of respect that members of the House do not address on the floor other members who are not present to answer. It’s considered a sucker punch, a knife in the back. Perhaps those rules of respect are irrelevant to you.

Posted on July 20, 2011 at 6:52amThis is indicative of a PATTERN of behavior for him. He went overboard. Only part of his response is in this article, and none of her statement. Many of the responses in here are disgusting. AND THIS, after so many get flipped-out about criticism of Palin and Bachmann. If it weren’t so atrocious it would be laughable.

Posted on July 20, 2011 at 3:44pmRep. Scrappy Coco has to learn not to ankle bite a duly elected senior Florida Congresswoman. Only the Taxed Enough Already communications manual celebrates humiliation and personal attack. The US Congress aspires to be higher on collegiality and Governance. The gentle man (R-Plantation) should be a “man.”

Posted on July 21, 2011 at 2:30amYour defense of this disrespectful and sorry excuse of a woman should, and probably does, know exactly what she is doing, given her position and title. Her actions and statement prevoked the response from Rep Col West. She insinuated that he was incompetent and negligent in his representation of his districf, which is a lie and slander coming from someone in her position. She knows better but feels she can get away making any statement without repercussions as if she did nothing wrong. she needs to be deposed and repremanded for her conduct for unbecoming behavior as a member of the house of representatives.
The rest of you DemonicRat Trolls need to slither back to your cage and “shut the hell up!”

Posted on July 21, 2011 at 6:31amAmerican…, There’s a respectful way to respond, then there’s what West did, which you defend. I did notice the similarity between your last line and his. Reading from the same playbook maybe? ;^)
