Florida’s Character Assassins: The AFL-CIO, those ‘outlaw’ bikers and Allen West

Leathernecks are not Outlaws and buying insurance is not hypocrisy.

Union lackey and former lobbyist Ron Klein [D] and the rest of his left-wing sycophants hate Allen West, the Republican candidate running for Congress in Florida’s 22nd District. He is everything they fear in a candidate from the Right and represents everything they are opposed to.

Allen West is a pro-military, pro-freedom, and he’s a man of principle. He does not believe union bosses should be cutting back-room deals*, and he does not believe America should be driven into bankruptcy as the Democrats are doing. Oh, and one other thing, he happens to be black which, for some reason, matters a lot to the Left (apparently it’s harder to call him a racist).

So, given the morally bereft nature of Democrat Klein and his minions, they have their thongs so tightly wound over Allen West’s candidacy that their tramp stamps are beginning to metathesize and they have nothing left but to make stuff up. However, in so doing so, they not only have attacked Allen West, they’ve also disparaged the invaluable service and reputations of the men and women who protect America’s freedoms.

Now, because many of you may have fallen victim to the Left’s sleight of hand, it’s time you know the truth about the idiot attacks on Allen West.

A couple of weeks ago, the Left stupidly (yes, stupidly) accused Allen West of affiliating with bikers (gasp!). Even worse, the Left went so far as to accuse Allen West of having bikers “who look suspiciously like Outlaws-affiliated bikers” throw a Democratic staffer “bodily” out of one of West’s rallies…and they had the video to prove it!

Allen West’s (FL-22) BFF, a gang called the Outlaws  (aka “organized crime”) have been caught on video. Funny how that happens when you’re in someone’s face… publicly. Just ask Joe Miller.

Thanks to my Twitter pal Joy Reid, we have some great reporting about the thuggery that West’s little buds have been up to:

And while the goons were described as “Vietnam veterans,” you can clearly see from their signage that they are the very bikers that West has said “protected” him in the past.

The Florida Democratic party has now pulled the staffer off the West detail … due tosafety concerns. And that’s a good thing. God help that kid if he runs across some Go West dude whose mind has been blown by Glenn Beck…

Here’s the problem, for anyone who is a biker, one glance at the video and you know instantaneously that the bikers the Left is accusing of being the infamous “Outlaws” are not, in fact, outlaws at all (in name or in deed). Rather, they are the big bad Leathernecks!  Eeek!

And, yes, they can be intimidating…which is exactly how they should be.  More importantly, that is how all Americans (except, of course, the Left) should want them to be.  Here’s why:

The Leathernecks are the men (and, more recently, women) who have fought for America’s freedom since 1775. They are Marines…more specifically, they are current and former Marines.

In the biker community, the Leathernecks MC is a well-respected MC (for you Lefty trolls whose only exposure to bikers is reading the Motorcycle Diaries, MC is biker-speak for Motorcycle Club).  The following is from the Leatherneck MC’s website:

Just as the United States Marine Corps is a proud and distinct organization that stands apart from other military organizations, so too, is the Leathernecks Motorcycle Club Intl., Inc. a proud and distinct organization of active-duty and former Marines and FMF Corpsmen that stands apart from, yet not against, other motorcycle clubs. Just as the United States Marine Corps supports God, Country and Marine Corps Brotherhood, so too, does the Leathernecks Motorcycle Club support God, Country and Marine Corps Brotherhood. Just as the United States Marine Corps stands ready to defend our country and allies against tyranny, so too, does the Leathernecks Motorcycle Club Intl., Inc. stand ready to defend itself against tyranny of any kind.

The Leathernecks Motorcycle Club Intl., Inc. is not political and claims no territory. We are a family orientated club. We have no need for reputation building. The Eagle, Globe, and Anchor needs no introduction. We fly USMC and CORPSMAN as bottom rockers because we can. We respect all men except the enemies of our country and the enemies of our free way of life. We are not interested in joining or interfering with the affairs of others. We desire only to ride our motorcycles in the company of our brothers as free men in this free land, a land for which we and our brothers have fought “In Every Clime and Place” during the past 234 years. Currently, and always, we have brothers in hostile places around this globe defending our rights to choose as we please. We will never seek to infringe upon the rights of anyone and we expect the same courtesy in return.

These are the same Leathernecks who are at every Patriot Guard mission. How do I know that? Because I’ve stood in flag lines with them and watched tears roll down their faces as some young soldier’s casket passes by. These are the same Leathernecks who have fought (and lost brothers) in order to preserve America and her freedoms.

The Leathernecks are not outlaws and, more specifically, they are not the Outlaws. [If they were, it is a safe bet there would not be any video footage alleging that the cameraman was thrown out "bodily."]

What is even more pathetic about Ron Klein and the Left’s attempt at assassinating Allen West’s character is that Ron Klein didn’t seem to have any trouble having his photo taken with the Leathernecks.  Of course, that was before he considered them “outlaws.”

Last point for the Lefties: If you want to learn about “real” bikers, go watch the Discovery Channel.  You’ll be safer that way.  Or, better yet, tune into Sons of Anarchy. If, after a couple of episodes, you find yourself thinking that the storyline is vaguely familiar, that’s because it is.  It’s Shakespeare’s Hamlet [We call it Hamlet on Hogs.]

*This Just In…

The Florida Independent is reporting that Allen West was a member of the teachers’ union “between 2004 and 2005 for the one year he was a high school social studies teacher at Deerfield Beach High School.”  [O.M.G!!!] And, now, the AFL-CIO in Florida is trying to play that against West.

So, why would a high school teacher in a right to work state voluntarily join the teachers’ union? Very simply because the teachers’ union has this great little monopolistic scheme going in that it offers liability insurance (in case a kid sues alleging you smacked them).

[Note to conservative-owned insurance company: Do you want to start a lucrative business? Start a liability line of insurance for teachers and compete with the teachers' unions..you'll likely get a ton of business.]

Floridians, don’t let Ron Klein and his minions continue attacking good Americans like Allen West and the Leathernecks through their character assassinations.  It’s time to stick up for them as they’ve stuck up for you. You deserve better than Ron Klein and his low-life antics.

Send Ron Klein packing and help elect Allen West.

    And no, I don’t use that word lightly.

    Along with Rubio (lucky Florida!), I think he’s one of the more inspiring leaders we’ve had in a long time. Not to mention he’s not afraid of mixing it up with the lefties; meaning that he’s a fighter and I like that. In that race especially we’ve seen the Dems use sleazeball tactic after sleazeball tactic to bring this man down but he only emerges stronger and a more attractive candidate than before.

    Allen West will be an awesome representative in Congress. Can’t wait to see his victory speech!

    • Mary Beth

      He will make a fantastic Congressman and I believe, one day, a fantastic PRESIDENT.

      Mark it down.

  • jackhammer

    Because the supposed Union Thugs are suually fat overweight and lazy, and anythign else but fear inducing. Some real 1% MC’S would liven things up….

  • mirac777

    And that is why the UnAmerican left hates him so bad. West is a true Patriot. He will fight for this country tooth and nail. We need more fighters. I don’t see the leftists at MoveOn sending psycho broads to attack him, like they did recently. Fact is, that bullies are cowards who will run when confronted 99% of the time. The other 1%, get their clocks cleaned by those with the right to self-defense and in protecting America.
    All the Socialist propaganda in the world won’t change my respect for Allen West, period. As far as the leftist cowards intimidating anyone at the polls? Wont happen here in Fl at my poll. I will be standing my ground, and with video
    cameras watching every single thing, every single minute my poll is open. We all need to protect our right to vote and vote fairly.
    A vote for West is a vote for America and all she stands for, period.

    Working any kind of phone bank isn’t easy, but it is extremely satisfying when doing it for a cause you strongly believe in, especially when it makes a difference for even one person you speak with. My wife and I have never been involved in a political campaign before. We are proud to be a small part of this one.

    The energy at Col. West’s campaign office is incredible. You can feel it in the air. His staff is dedicated and enthusiastic. Speak with him for one minute and you realize that he is absolutely genuine – well versed in history and politics, extremely personable and confident in his convictions, and in addition, he speaks fluent Italian!

    I was at the rally in Deerfield Beach, when the regular Klein heckler was politely asked to leave by Col. West. He asked that the heckler be escorted away from the function without using violence. And that is what happened, no more, no less. Regarding the bikers, most appeared to be 50+, some much older. They were polite, courteous, and obviously dedicated to the campaign. I noticed one wiping tears from his eyes as he listened to Col. West speak. It was good to be with them.

    One more thing – we are Jewish, strong supporters of Israel. “Klein” does not represent this position, actions do. Don’t be fooled by a name. In spite of his non-stop, pro-Israel emails, he supports the most openly hostile administration in Israel’s short history as a nation. Just check into those who represent our interests in the negotiations. The facts are out there for anyone who cares look for them.

    I’ll quit making fun of you for your 2000 election fiasco if you elect Allen West to Congress next week.

    He’s a great man and a great American. He deserves your vote.

  • jiminga

    my wife and I participate in every Patriot Guard Riders flag line and recession within 50 miles. Our last was in honor of Robert Griffith (KIA in Laos during the Vietnam war) whose remains were recently discovered. The PGR serves a noble purpose in providing respect for our fallen heroes and protection of their families from protesting crazies. If Col. West were running for office in GA, I’d vote for him without hesitation.

  • Locked and Loaded

    Then I discovered it’s not exactly true. They wanted you to believe that, sure, but the coverage was only provided after the fact, and only if you were cleared of any wrongdoing. Maybe, like me, West discovered the truth during his first year on the job.

    BTW, this reminds me of the diary the other day about the can’t-wait business of the new House. If they must rush to get it done, there is really no reason to think their motives are any different from the current crop of Dems (BO among them) who told us how important it was to get things done quickly.

    Note to all aspiring and current teachers: Much better to join the Christian Educators Association.
