The one thing they don’t want to talk about are the issues, so they resort to character assassination, schoolyard insults and misogynistic or racist behavior. And we get comments like of Rep. Allen West (R-FL), who Tweeted that supporters of President Obama are a threat to the gene pool.

But that’s not all the dirt from Rep. West. Just last night, West sent an email to Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) (and house leaders of both parties) that demanded she “shut the heck up” and in which he called her despicable, as well as accusing her of not being a lady. Why? Because she stood up for Medicare and Social Security.

lining up all of their black republiCONS to cover up their racism. Today on cspan they had some type of summit with black conservatives discussing how to get the black community to see their point of view they were discussing how smart they were and how blacks who vote for Dems were dumb..

Every night a new black republiCON shows up on fox to tell their base they are not racists and to keep it up. They need these people to help them spew their racism especially now that there is a black President.

Gingrich is spending a fair amount of time in coveted Florida. Aides say this is his sixth recent visit. If he runs, he'd consider picking a Floridian to be his running mate and lumped Congressman Allen West in with statewide electees like Governor Scott and Senator Rubio.

"Allen West would certainly be someone you'd look at," said Gingrich.
