I think Allen West is heading for a full nervous breakdown/meltdown.

Calling democrats "communists."

Getting booted out of an NAACP event.

Now this.

When last we heard from neo-McCarthyite and confirmed crazy person Allen West (R-FL), he was claiming that half of the Democratic caucus in the House were communists. Now, he's claiming the Muslim Brotherhood is pulling the strings at the Pentagon.

“We have to understand that when tolerance becomes a one-way street it leads to cultural suicide,” West told "Fox and Friends" on Monday. “We should not allow the Muslim Brotherhood or associated groups to be influencing our national strategy.”

When asked if he believed those groups were influencing U.S. strategy, West responded, “Oh, absolutely,” and cited the Fort Hood, Texas, shooting report that didn’t mention the suspect’s Muslim faith as a potential motive for the killings.

So far, the Muslim Brotherhood has gotten Obama to surge in Afghanistan, increase Predator strikes in the entire region, send the Special Forces into Pakistan to kill bin Laden -- and launch an air war Libya. They're very sneaky!

if, somewhere in his service, he suffered a head injury that might present delayed symptoms.

But then I'd have to wonder about what accounts for Jan Brewer, and I just don't want to go there.

7. It has occurred to me that West may be a tool for Fixed News to put some propaganda

out there to amp up some hatred, knowing that their voters aren't enthusiastic about the GOP candidate.

With what all we know about Murdoch&Co. & their way of doing business (with a lot of help from one political party), it's a possibility. His motive increases with the fact that his legal troubles in Great Britain are about to travel over to the U.S., that a media storm is sure to come, & he knows there would be no support for him from the Democrats -- especially bad news for him if the Democrats have majorities in the house & senate after January, 2013.
