Quantcast

Allen West Rips the President for hosting a fancy event that he himself attended and enjoyed. Is this being a hypocrite?

Allen West before and during the party:

"On Saturday night I was honored to be invited to the White House
Correspondents Association dinner. There was much glam, glamour, and
humor flowing," West posted on his Facebook page on Monday morning.

Then all of a sudden: "While the President laughs and dines, our Constitutional Republic is
eroding and my countrymen are suffering," West wrote. "In this election
year, it is sad to think that some of those who were sitting in that
ballroom Saturday night laughing and living it up, are helping to
perpetuate the manipulation and deception of our country."

Why is Allen West even attending such high living events if he dislikes them so much? Why does he go places that he has such obvious contempt for. He ate, and drank and even signed autographs like a celebrity, then has the nerve to call the President for hosting an event that he himself attended?

Does this seem like Hypocrisy to you?

    I don't like anyone "no matter what they do" However, West was right. 0bama lives in La La land.

    He's his knee-jerk anti-Obama reaction is at a very low threshold. If you pointed out President Obama breaths air he'd probably go on a rant about respiration.

    This reminds me of going to an over the top cocktail party or$150,000+ wedding. You enjoy yourself but you can't help thinking how ridiculous it is.

    I think that was what he was trying to say.
    That's how I read it anyway ..he was stating the obvious ..

    Exactly, yet somehow people see hypocrisy because he's a Republican.

    Hypocrisy? Maybe. Jealousy? DEFINITELY!! He looked on in obvious jealousy and envy at a fellow African American who aspired to and achieved the highest office in the land. Wishing that he himself were at that very podium making jokes. Allen West is nothing and will be nothing more than a teabagging tool!!

    Allen West needs to get off his high horse and come back to reality. It's an event that Presidents have been putting on for years. Remember Bush looking for WMD's as if it was a joke? Turns out it really was.

    Whether or not it's hypocritical, it is extremely poor manners. One does not accept hospitality then openly criticise one's host. A politician with no understanding of basic courtesies has no place on the world stage, let alone to lead a country.

    Very well said. That is exactly so. To accept a dinner invitation then be rude enough to bash your host is in VERY poor taste.

    A true UNpatriotic assclown. Where was he the decades before this when this very same event was going on? Why act like a little ungrateful byaaatch now? It's called hypocrisy, period. And no amount of cheering for the home team will change that!

    Noooo, actually he's serving fellow teabaggers, using them to gain office and then leave you by the wayside as the rest of them have done. Have you heard from any of them lately? Didn't think so!

    He is pissed that no one cared one twit that he was there. Even Jimmy didn't recognize him. That comes with being a nobody in Washington. The Kardashians were recognized.

    Considering the entire thing is televised live from start to finish... I doubt there was a need to spy.

    you think so ? I dunno about that after all I know you can not trust the media very often if ever so perhaps that make's it easier to spy on the adminestration and get better and more infomation that the media will not let the American people know about.

    the best way to spy sometimes is to be noticed as one of them.
