Good News: Allen West Is A Confirmed Loser

Since we had a lovely week here in Smallville, visiting with The Ladies from Mexico City, a visit to the Brookgreen Gardens along the coast, having cocktails with the Round-The-Way Gays, David and Neal, and dinner with Out-Of-The-Way Gays, Roger and Thomas, I wanted to keep the good feelings alive ....

Allen West, anti-LGBT wingnut, conspiracy theorist, Florida Representative, Allen West, has finally conceded the election he lost two weeks ago to Patrick Murphy. After two weeks of refusing to accept that vote-counting by officials in St. Lucie County favored his opponent--including a recount which extended Murphy's lead--West finally shut his pie-hole.


After this:
“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. While many questions remain unanswered, today I am announcing that I will take no further action to contest the outcome of this election...I pray he will serve his constituents with honor and integrity, and put the interests of our nation before his own.”
Sort of a non-concession concession, if you will, but the fact remains that Teabaggin' darlin' Allen West is done.
One more thing for which to be Thankful!

  1. Wonder if the Tea Party will be a factor in the 2014 mid-terms. (Can't believe I even mentioned the next set of elections!!! :-)

    I think the Tea Party will be a factor in two years, and it will be a negative one provided that this Congress gets its act together.
