Rep. Allen West (R-FL) Finally Concedes to Construction Executive Patrick Murphy

Tea Party darling Rep. Allen West concedes to Patrick Murphy after acting as though he was entitled to the seat. It was abundantly clear on Election night, November 6, 2012, that he had lost, but no, like the bully that he is, he demanded a recount.
“For two weeks since Election Day, we have been working to ensure every vote is counted accurately and fairly. We have made progress towards that goal, thanks to the dedication of our supporters and their unrelenting efforts to protect the integrity of the democratic process,” West said in a statement to POLITICO. “While many questions remain unanswered, today I am announcing that I will take no further action to contest the outcome of this election.”
West congratulated Murphy, saying, “I pray he will serve his constituents with honor and integrity, and put the interests of our nation before his own.” Source
All I can say is, good riddance to a horrible lawmaker. There are more like him sitting in Congress who deserve to be voted out of office.

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out Allen.
Good riddance!
One less hateful and hate-filled ‘wing nut’

Good riddance to bad rubbish.
I won’t miss West in the least, he is an idiot and a nut.
Sorry to see Grayson is back though, too bad Florida couldn’t get rid of both nuts.
Those blacks feel they are entitled to all sorts of gifts. Oh wait… he’s a Tea Party Republican? Then he is definitely entitled to whatever he wants.
Bye bye.
Dog nab it! Now we will never know if those 81 members of the Democratic caucus are members of the Communist party! Grayson needs to be ousted as soon as possible. The Democrats that supported his reelection should be ashamed.
Lord knows we don’t need ANY more bomb throwers in the House – or the Senate. These are supposed to be serious people enacting serious legislation. Where did we go wrong?
I smell a communist conspiracy….
With all the Grayson is bad inferences I checked the Alan Grayson – Wikipedia Article and was surprised by his reasonable basic goals and positions… The Anti-Grayson folk might be too.

Did wicki mention all his over the top rants in the House well? He’s a bomb thrower as bad as any in the opposition. Nothing moderate about this guy, no matter what his goals or positions. He reminds me so much of McCarthy; he even looks a little like him. Makes you wonder about reincarnation.
