Allen West said tonight that UN Ambassador Rice’s statement earlier today blaming the attacks in the Middle East, specifically Benghazi, on this anti-Islam video is borderline ignorant. In fact he actually called them asinine, naïve, inept, and incompetent as well. He goes on to accuse the Obama administration of outright distorting the truth with their complicit MSM, suggesting this could be Obama’s very own Jimmy Carter moment.

I love this man. He doesn't get excited or raise his voice, he just tells it like it is. From where I sit, he's 100% on each of the issues he talked about.

However, I don't see any way the White House or the Dems are going to admit the truth. We've known for some time now that this was not about a crappy YouTube video, but a coordinated attack by terrorists. Yet they continue to blame it on the movie and even attack the First-Amendment rights of the man behind it, in order to try to appease our enemies.

They either are all the things Col. West said the Ambassador was, meaning they don't have a clue and their knee-jerk reaction is to lie about what little they do understand; or, more likely, they aren't willing to tell the truth because it's likely to lose Obamao the election.

The President and the Liberals and Lame-stream-media care more about this election than they do about our country's security.

I agree with you. Obama's reaction to most bad judgement calls has been to lie his way out of it. I see nothing more in this President than a 3rd rate con man who just happened to be in the right place at the right time. My biggest issue is that the responsible people who butchered four of our American brothers are going to walk. It seems to me this Obama has no interest beyond lying and defrauding his way into another four years as President. With the assistance of the media, Obama has been very successful in one thing, hiding his true Muslim allegiance from the American people.

This is the real story. Ulsterman, LameCherry and other bloggers are reporting on it. Nobody believed their lies but this is what they do not want America to know: the Islamists attacked our soverign property, our Embassies and they raped and killed our Ambasador and killed other Americans.

This is what Obama has sown and reaped with his ME policy all for the benefit of his buddies the Muslim Brotherhood. They own him.

Sad, to believe that the most dangerous person in the United States for Americans is the president of the United States!

Allen West is the reason I think any one even contemplating running for President should have at SOME military experience.

An Eagle Scout has more experience than the dumbo in Office.

Susan Rice is a light weight sock puppet...

It's more like Obama's having a Jimmy Carter paralysis moment! This is why the white house is in need of person more qualified than a community organizer.

If the left really thinks an obscure movie about Mohammed is causing violence in the Middle East, they will demand that Hollywood not release the upcoming movie about Obama killing Osama. But they won't because they don't.

ALL forms of authority must be open to criticism and satire, or they will turn into monsters. For 1400 years, Islam has not been open to criticism or satire and guess what? It became a monster.

It can spread to more countries. It has already spread to 57 formerly civilized ones.

There are a lot of differences between the UN Ambassador and LtC West, all of them being to his favor. But I must say, she was not inept for her words. She is merely a puppet of Obama and has to say what he tells her to say. I can't imagine what it's like to have to speak outright lies and deceptions simply because my boss told me to.

This gives Obama the advantage of being able to throw her under the bus if and when they have to change their story after the polls tell them that their lies aren't working. Seems like a win-win for Obama.

It's obvious that she fits right in at the United Nations, because they thrive on that aura of lies and deception. Another reason for us to leave the UN and kick them out of New York. And Rep. West is absolutely right when he says we must end all monetary aide to these countries. Unlike McCain who thinks the bribes still work.

What more can be said about this great and patriotic loving American. Colonel Allen West and my congressman of the great state of Florida. Shows every other elective official in Washington DC how a true statesman performs his or her duty. With honor, with integrity, with love of country, with truth, and unbridled courage in the face of fire.

We here at the right scoop salute you! We will stand by you no matter how hard the struggle. God Bless you Lt. Colonel Allen West congressman Florida.

It was nearing midnight EST and I ran across a radio show. I don't know who the host was and couldn't tell you the name of the guest, but he was a former member of the Muslim brotherhood. He is was saying America needs to understand the different mindset of Muslims. When America apologizes, like when they did for the video, Muslims think confession of guilt and punishment while America thinks apology and forgiveness.

He also said that there are 500 colleges where there are Muslim groups (said the name of them) that are an extension (or something) of the Muslim brotherhood. He also mentioned something about Al Gore had quoted something in the past that came from one of those Muslim groups.

And the Muslim brotherhood has a goal of Sharia and taking over governments. They are invading our campuses.

Borderline ignorant? NO! It's flat out stupidity and they know it! This is not a surprise to the Odumbo administration. They have such disdain for the USA, that they are purposefully trying to destroy us on every possible level: economically, politically, and globally. This is a propaganda run on Rice's part. She is willing to be an idiot, so that Odumbo's Islamic, socialist garbage can move, "forward". Odumbo and his ilk want power and they want us on our knees in submission. This is willful destruction, not just ineptitude!

That little mix has been sitting on her multiculturalist a$$ for the last 3+ years, maintaining a low profile. Then she gets on TV and drowns out Jake Tapper and never addresses any of his questions with an honest response. What did come out of her mouth was pure Obamination BS. She is ignorant by choice. She hides her head in the sand because she has bought into the leftist multiculturalist lie about Islam. She'll never admit that she and Hillary are utter failures on foreign policy or that the real reason behind these attacks had nothing to do with a film that was made last year. It had everything to do with Islam's growing confidence exacerbated by over-educated common senseless todies like her who continue to feed that hungry Islamic crocodile. And it keeps comming back for more. She and others like her have put our country and our diplomats and military personnel at further risk by trying to appease Islam rather than supporting and defending our Constitution and focusing the war on the philosophy behind the global jihad. The genocidal maniacs in Islam will never be appeased. NEVER.

If a video on youtube could of caused all of this then what on earth does Obama think will happen when Hollywood release the film of killing Bin Laden. Remember Obama gave Hollywood access to a lot of information and is a O K with being called the one that killed Osama bin Laden. This administration is nuts.

Jasper Silvis

Someone close to the Romney campaign PLEASE tell him not to agree to the line that a video caused the attacks! That dumb George Stephanopoulos interview showed Romney commenting on the "stupidity" of the video. Why?

Romney, it is simple, when someone asks you anything about the video, you say, "Who cares about a Youtube video that had nothing to do with the attacks on our embassies? I am not going to sidetrack this major foreign policy issue by commenting on an irrelevant video, regardless of the administration's desire to actively mislead the public on its false importance."

Something like that.

Romney, you better grow a pair before the debates.

sDee

Romney says what he is told to say by those "close to his campaign". Listen to McCain and Graham on islam, the Brotherhood and the middle east. Remember how the republican establishment attacked Bachmann? The mindset is the same in DC. Romeny's campaign is of that mindset.

Muslims are basically saying: Give up free speech, or more people will get killed.

And you know, you just know that the Democrats would be more than willing to do that. Obama right now is spitting on the first amendment because he can't stand having his hands tied by... you know, the rights of Man.

Why does the West think it can control or straighten out the Middle East? Why does it think it can still play at being the world's police force? Why do both the Republicans and the Democrats think that whoever is occupying the White House can straighten it out? Is the American public that ridiculously naive? Apparently so.

Kordane
Kordane

The only way to "straighten out the middle east" is to engage in total war against the major Islamic states, regardless of whether they're considered an ally, neutral or not. I've often suggested widescale nuclear strikes against population centers, infrastructure and military capabilities of said Islamic states. The minor Islamic states will fall in line once they see what will happen to them too... if they don't change their ways. We need to be clear with all Islamic states: Surrender to us, renounce Islam, and accept our terms, any terms, otherwise we'll carry on obliterating you.

I cannot believed my ears, when Susan Rice went on TV and outright LIED to Chris Wallace's face! This woman is another Obama's lap dog, who will outright lie to protect Oloser! This is the main reason why Americans should kick that POS Obama to the curb this November! He's a Muslim and will do whatever it takes to sell our country to Islam!

If you say it like it is, then the people will respond. Whether they like it or not they know when they hear truth.

Sometimes it takes more courage to be honest, than to be politically correct.

That is something obama can not claim, he would rather lie to the American people, than to be honest.

I can not support a leader who does not know what honesty is.

The problem obama has is he really doesn`t know the difference between a lie and the truth.

He has lied to the people who support him the most, the African-Americans about jobs and health care.

He has lied about his assault on the voting rights of active duty military.

He lied about the illegal aliens in our country, and are trying to use them for his own personal gain(votes), which is in it self is voter fruad.

He has lied about the economy and unemployment, trying to constantly say that it was Bush`s fault.

He has lied about the illegal sell of weapons to the Mexican drug dealers, which has caused deaths both here and in Mexico.

He lied about the stimulis that he claimed would decease unemployment, but in fact caused more unemployment. It was filled with corruption and pay-offs to his cronies and not all of it even stayed in the U.S.

I am nobody, but even I can think of alot of things that this country could use for 6 tillion dollars. If he had done for this country in that amount of money his could have been a hero, but he wasted it all, and accomplished nothing.

That is why I will vote for the Americans Romney/Ryan. Lets throw this communist from Kenya out of our White House!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It would be a true tragedy if Col. West is not high on Romney's list of Cabinet appointees.

A true test of a great leader is one who surrounds himself with those who are willing to face reality and to tell the truth no matter how bad it is.

Bachmann and West are both in the fights of their lives for their seats. They are both in need of serious donations too. I pray more folks give to them both!!

It was a major mistake sending Rice to the talk shows today. It keeps the story alive and gets people angry at the lying. I have NEVER seen such unanimity in the criticism of what this woman said today. Usually, the boards all over the internet lean one way or the other, with plenty of opposing viewpoints. Check out the ABC website. ABC! There might be 1 in 50 not putting her down for her lies. Same thing on Yahoo. Again, big mistake on Obama's part.

And those saying Romney should attack are dead wrong. Let Obama and his admin be int eh spotlight. Don't provide a target for the MSM. Let it stew. Whenever Romney opens his mouth, it gives Obama a break. The focus should be on Obama and his admin because it makes them look so bad.

I agree. Let them keep talking. The more they talk, lie and spin, the more they implode. Glad to hear that the tide might be turning even in the MSM audience. Funny they aren't even stupid enough to believe the lies as they did in the past!

Hum, I wonder what they'll try next to blame someone other than this admin for ALL of their failures?

Once again, we see the real President of the nation, speak to us on the current crisis in the Middle East, while the empty chair of Clint Eastwood, says nothing. I'm joking, of course, but ask yourselves who appears more Presidential.

Folks, we are in real trouble, when the Representative from Florida, speaks what the nation wants to hear, and our actual President is hiding in his bedroom, asking Michelle, "why don't these people like me?"

You know, Rocklin, he used a group of words to describe his anger. "Asinine," was one of them. The point I would like to make about this beloved American, is that he calls them like he sees them.

He is the right man for the times that we face. He is to us, in this current crisis, what Ronald Reagan was, when we had Jimmy Carter.

Allen West is not afraid to speak the truth, when the truth is what so many, are begging to hear.

How different these two men. Both black, as if that matters anymore.

Thankfully, we are past that impediment to our future greatness.

The one, a Patriot of the first order. A military man, who has helped protect this country from our enemies.

The second, the other one, a man dedicated to the destruction of this great nation, by whatever means at his disposal.

What an amazing time we are living in. I just hope you are not watching television.
