Democrats Dissing an Honorable Man....again

Lt. Col. West 'blacklisted' from charity gala - Claims Democrat challenger's wife 'prodded' sponsors to complain

Yeah Allen...they did it. But here is what I love about this guy as a candidate. He could use the democratic approach for nearly everything these days, and call them racists, but instead, he chose to take the high road. Here is another thing I like about this fine honorable black American:


As WND reported, West was introduced to the nation in 2003 when he faced criminal charges for using shock interrogation tactics to protect his soldiers in Iraq. As WND reported in 2003, West was threatened with court-martial for tactics he used to flush out information from an uncooperative Iraqi policeman. Threatening to kill the Iraqi if he didn't talk, West fired a pistol near the policeman's head, producing an immediate flood of information that purportedly led to the arrest of two insurgents and cessation of attacks on West's 4th Infantry Division battalion. Army prosecutors charged West with aggravated assault, and he faced the possibility of up to eight years in prison. At a hearing, West was asked by his defense attorney if he would do it again.

West responded, "If it's about the lives of my soldiers at stake, I'd go through hell with a gasoline can."

Now THAT is Army Strong!
