It's interesting that he says the left should take their ideas of "equality of outcome" somewhere else when, in fact, if they actually did, he'd enjoy the same result.

After all, we can't have people running around voting "wrong" can we? Good Lord! Just think what might happen? Why...they might actually vote in folks who West disagrees with! Horrors!
The whole "equality of outcome" ideology of the left is alien to the US culture. It essentially tells people not to lift a finger to help themselves, because the politicians in government are tasked with making our outcomes equal to everyone else. With the government adopting "equality of outcome" no one has to learn anything, we can all spend our time in K-12 picking our asses, and government will step in and make us equal.

After all, along with "equality of outcome," we have a right to a good job, a house, a car, food, health care, yadda-yadda... and the best part is, we don't have to lift a finger on our behave to obtain any of these things. Providing all of these free thing to us is government's job.

Clearly, I'm speaking of someone with last name West... never mind that he is actually a "conservative" which actually supports his ideas more than his last name.

The only "equality of outcome" the Republicans want is to make certain everyone has more debt than they can carry and that their kids always have an advantage over the kids of the lower income levels. After all what is wealth good for if it does not buy advantage over the workers and the poor.

Hey West, looks just as good on that horse, as President Obama looked on the beach with his shirt off.

Glad to see he's fit!!

Some of us don't think of bottles the way you clearly do, much less at this hour.

But then, idiots like Allen West must appeal to the special folksy folks among us.

Which means you were sober when you made that post? I was giving you the benefit of the doubt. Einstein would be rolling in his grave.

How the hell can one black man play the race card against another black man. This is just ridiculous and grabbing at straws. Goes with a white man saying something and not being allowed to say it, because he's white.

You've heard of Freedom of Speech haven't you or the right to one's own opinion.

Yep, for me even engaging in a debate with someone who is thinking bottles at this hour much less identify with the idiocy that is Allen West.
