Bored with making fun of Mitt Romney's foreign policy prowess? Here's Allen West, who can certainly match him in ignorance and arrogance.
The American dream very simply is the fact that a young man born in the inner city of Atlanta, Georgia 1961 now lives here. That's the American dream. There's no such thing as a Somali dream, a Chinese dream, there's one dream—the American dream and that's why people came to these shores. [...]
November the 7th means the restoration of this great constitutional republic. It means we will go back and recommit to the fundamental principles and values that make us an exceptional nation. And it means we will once again rekindle and reignite the American entrepreneurial and indomitable spirit—that's what November the 7th will mean. It will mean that we will open up a new chapter in the history of this great nation.
The Chinese and Somalis might be surprised to learn they have no aspirations of their own, but West isn't going to let a little concern about insulting entire other nations bother him. Hell, look what he says about his fellow members of Congress.
But as long as West is focused on getting his voters turned out on Nov. 7, maybe we should just let him have his little fantasy.
In the meantime, let's get Patrick Murphy elected.
