Now he is calling Obama "an Islamist who is intentionally working against the security of the United States." Wow, I wonder what Eric toilet paper Holder thinks of that?

I like him too, but not for that reason. He is a real leader and flushed his career to protect his men.
..."West said he also threatened to kill Hamoody. Military prosecutors say West followed up on that threat by taking the suspect outside, put him on the ground near a weapons clearing barrel and fired his 9 mm pistol into the barrel.
Apparently not knowing where West's gun was aimed, Hamoody cracked and gave information about the planned ambush on West's convoy, thwarting the attack.
West said there were no further ambushes on U.S. forces in Taji until he was relieved of his leadership post on October 4.
"I know the method I used was not right, but I wanted to take care of my soldiers," West testified to a military courtroom of observers and some teary-eyed troops formerly under his command.
Asked if he would have act differently if under similar circumstances again, West testified, "If it's about the lives of my soldiers at stake, I'd go through hell with a gasoline can." "...

Leadership is not a popularity contest, if you're an effective leader chances are there are going to be some people that don't like you. Allen West is a leader of the finest caliber and I hope he runs for office again. Unfortunately I think that we'll continue to see Mr. West on the TV news and in syndicated print media because too many of his potential constituents lean to the left and apparently are satisfied with a do nothing Congress and a President who does what ever he wants, laws be dammed.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.
