Allen West Calls for Holder’s Resignation

July 10, 2011

Fast & Furious Troubles are Spreading.

Thank you Col. West!

From the Daily Caller:

Florida Republican Rep. Allen West is demanding that President Barack Obama force Attorney General Eric Holder to resign.

Appearing on Nashville radio host Steve Gill’s show last week, West said Obama would be “complicit” with what he sees as Justice Department attempts to slow down and avoid a congressional investigation into Operation Fast and Furious and Project Gunrunner if he didn’t push his attorney general to resign. “The president needs to realize that Eric Holder needs to be removed from the Department of Justice,” West said after detailing why he thinks Holder should appear before an investigative committee to testify about how the DOJ has handled its response to the Operation Fast and Furious investigation. “Or else I believe President Obama is complicit and he is in approval of the actions of his attorney general.”

Have you seen this video by Ltc. Allen West? It is inspirational. It’s not new, (it was recorded when he was a candidate for congress) but it’s great. Isn’t this the kind of guy we want in government?

Rep. AllenWest: “You’re Not Going to Intimidate Me”

Congressman stands his ground when confronted by Muslim radical at Town Hall Meeting

The Tuesday night meeting was West’s first meeting with constituents since his April 15 vote for a Republican budget that includes a revamping of Medicare. For those now under 55, the plan drafted by House Budget Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wis., would change Medicare from a defined-benefit program to one in which the government subsidizes premiums paid to private insurance plans.

The plan — which is considered doomed in the Democrat-controlled Senate — has drawn criticism from Democrats, who have targeted West and other House Republicans with radio ads and phone calls blasting the vote.

Earlier Tuesday, a town hall meeting in Orlando hosted by freshman Rep. Daniel Webster, R-Orlando, was disrupted by hecklers and audience members shouting at each other.

At roughly the same time in Wisconsin, Ryan faced a packed town meeting, occasional boos and a skeptical audience as he tried to lay out his party’s rationale for overhauling the health insurance program for retirees, according to The New York Times.

Outside the sprawling campus of Calvary Chapel, where West’s meeting was held in a theater, about 15 demonstrators carried signs criticizing the Medicare proposal.

Inside the meeting, West was less than a minute into his remarks tonight when two or three men began shouting from the audience.
