Congressman Allen West's Town Hall "Fix" Is Fraud

Chief of Staff for Republican U.S. Rep Allen West (FL-22) gets caught lying. After facing tough Town Hall questioning from constituents during first months in office, handlers for the controversial Tea Party favorite decided on a "fresh approach" for Question & Answer format. But as shown in this video from the April 27th, 2011 Town Hall in Boca Raton, FL, that "fresh approach" raises lots more questions than it answers...

okay, lets get one thing straight. JUST BECAUSE U CALL SOMEONE A COMMUNNIST OR A FASCIST DOES NOT MEAN U WIN AN ARGUEMENT!!! i seriously doubt that most people in america are fascists or communists. and therefore, its comepletely idiotic to call someone that. the only thing you accomplish by saying those insults: you look like a complete COWARD because u dont look up solid facts to present a viable arguement. so @tjgeorge1, congrats ur a f**king moron.

@tjgeorge1

"pot calling the kettle black". You are a propaganda tool. I'm ashamed to say you are an American. How low this country has sunk.

Allen West is 100% a fraud, a con, a liar, a hustler, pure Potemkin Village/Trojan Horse and NOT remotely conservative.

Vote this lying fraud out and if that means a liberal, so be it.

He is another obama creation but worse a right wing thug.

@magenta471 BTW, what don't you understand about "SOCIALIZED health care"? The word 'socialized' in this context refers to the government effectively taking over all health care services, which encompasses a sixth of our economy. The other nanny state governments have universal health care either because it's in line with their socialism ideals(just about all European countries), or they have an extremely small population compared to us (Canada...). There's a reason most ppl here reject it...

[Mackberserk]

@magenta471 Good one. Except you forgot to mention that "success" of universal healthcare in those countries is largely determined/measured by how many people are covered... Not by the QUALITY of treatment. Coverage does not equate to healthcare. That's like increasing demand without also increasing supply. Do you honestly believe that the patient per doctor ratio in those countries was anywhere near adequate BEFORE they established socialized health care? Not even close.

@magenta471 I'm English and the National Health Service has not been a universal success.

@TheColonelSteve He probably was an AMERICAN first, and was following orders like a good soldier. I doubt that he was thinking "I am doing this for my political party" or "What would my party want me to do"

nice guyliner on the aide...

[linwooddeaton]

Look at the May 1, 2011 article in the Palm Beach Post News..........gives a true account instead of this biased video.

[magenta471]

@TheColonelSteve Maybe not. He was just following the orders of the commander in chief, and would never, ever have done it without Obama's clever, swift action based on Intelligence, and his explicit order to shoot if necessary. Obama gave the order. The SEAL was required to follow. Yeah... democrat Intelligence, plan, and order to a man who had no choice. We definitely win.
