1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: The Michael Berry Show. Colonel Alan West, how are you, sir.

2
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:06,240
Speaker 2: I'm doing very well, Michael. How you been.

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 3: I call you colonel because it's a distinguished honor and

4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 3: it's not been sullied the way your title of congressman

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 3: has by some. But but you have served admirably this

6
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,159
Speaker 3: nation in multiple capacities and we thank you for that.

7
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 2: Not a problem.

8
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: Glad to have you on.

9
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:25,480
Speaker 2: I'm great to be with you. First of all, reading

10
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 2: to everyone down in Houston.

11
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, people want to know, people want to know what

12
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 1: you're up to.

13
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 2: Well, we just got back from the National Review summer cruise.

14
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, there were quite a few

15
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 2: folks from the Houston area that were on that cruise

16
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 2: with National Review and we spoke on three different panels.

17
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: We embarked out of Amsterdam, went up through the Fjords

18
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 2: of Norway, and so it was a great time to

19
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 2: be with fellow constitutional conservatives as well as my wife

20
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 2: and two daughters had a great time as well. So

21
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 2: now we're back in the saddle here at Next Generation

22
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 2: TV and doing our thing.

23
00:00:58,400 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: Tell us what Next Generation TV is?

24
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 2: Well. Next Generation TV is part of PJ Media and PJTV,

25
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: and it really is an internet news program that is

26
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 2: focused on crystallizing the today's events, current events news, what

27
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 2: have you for our younger generation to try to get

28
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 2: them to see, you know, a little bit more clearly

29
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 2: the issues that are confronting them. I mean when you

30
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,039
Speaker 2: speak about the healthcare law and the fact that these

31
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,119
Speaker 2: exchanges will fall flat if they cannot you know, kind

32
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 2: of course and co op many young people to get

33
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: buy into these exchanges. So those are the type of

34
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,559
Speaker 2: issues we try to analyze for them.

35
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 3: You are involved with Special Operations Speaks dot com.

36
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 2: Good group.

37
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 3: A guy that I grew up with is very involved there,

38
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:44,199
Speaker 3: Josh Delano, and they have as much as anybody kept

39
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 3: the issue of Benghazi before the American people. I know

40
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 3: that you've been involved in that. Can you catch us

41
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 3: up to speed where we are?

42
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. As a matter of fact, before I left, we

43
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: had the Special Operation Speaks had that incredible little press

44
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 2: conference up there on the East Capitol steps lawn where

45
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 2: they out what had to be one of the longest

46
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 2: petitions ever submitted to Congress, close a thousand signatures of

47
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 2: you know, retire Special operators and it's so important that

48
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 2: we keep the Bengazi issue alive because you know that's

49
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 2: not who we are and that we don't abandon people

50
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 2: who are under attack. And the most important question we've

51
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 2: got to ask is why was that Ambassador Chris Steve

52
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 2: was there on the eleventh an of versus nine to

53
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 2: eleven in Benghazi not without the proper security And there

54
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 2: were plenty of warnings, there were plenty of requests from him,

55
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 2: and those are the things we got to get to

56
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 2: the bottom of it. And there is a huge difference

57
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 2: that it makes because some person that wants to be

58
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,399
Speaker 2: a president in the future, you know, the phone call

59
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 2: came at two three o'clock in the morning and they

60
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: just rolled over and went back to sleep.

61
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 3: Lieutenant Colonel and former Congressman Allen West is our guest.

62
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 3: There is a lot of speculation, and Jake Tapper of

63
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 3: CNN of all places, revealed a week before last that

64
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 3: there were dozens of CIA operatives on the ground that

65
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 3: that fact has not been disclosed, and it seems as

66
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 3: if there is still a lot out there yet to

67
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 3: be disclosed. Is anybody in the Republican Party helping this

68
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 3: cover up? I mean, how have they been able to

69
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 3: keep this from blowing up? For this loan.

70
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 2: Well, the big concern that I have, Representative Frank Wolf

71
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,519
Speaker 2: of Virginia has h Resolution thirty six, which is a

72
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 2: call for a select committee to look at Ben Gazi.

73
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 2: I mean one committee that is focused and has the

74
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 2: subpoena powers. He's got one hundred and sixty one signatures

75
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 2: on that. But then you also have Representative Stockman from

76
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 2: Texas who has brought forth a discharge petition to try

77
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: to get the two hundred and eighteen signatures so that

78
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 2: that can be brought to the floor. The resolution to

79
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,839
Speaker 2: get the select committee. Now, why we are still kind

80
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 2: of puttsing around with five different committees on this and

81
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 2: we haven't learned anything in the years since that has happened.

82
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 2: We've had the Armed Service Committee has had Joe carter

83
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 2: Ham and the Marine colonel whose name slips me right now,

84
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 2: but they were behind closed doors. So we need to

85
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 2: have a committee that will have this out in the open.

86
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 2: And as I said, the first question is who sent

87
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 2: Ambassador Chris Steve was there and why was he there?

88
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: And yes, we know that there are CIA operatives at

89
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 2: that annex because that's where the two former Navy seals

90
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 2: Woods and Doherty. They heard the call and they went

91
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 2: to the sound of the gun. So there were others

92
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 2: that were there. We know that there were victims there

93
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 2: at the consulate who were rescued. We have not heard

94
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 2: from them. So there's a lot to get to the

95
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 2: bottom of.

96
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 3: Colonel Allen West John Bayner, the House majority of the

97
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 3: House Speaker has well more than two hundred and eighteen

98
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 3: members of his party in the House. It strikes me

99
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 3: that if he wanted to get to the bottom of Benghazi,

100
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 3: they could call a committee, give him subpoena powers, and

101
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 3: we could find out what happened. You've served in the House,

102
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 3: you know that sometimes things are not as they appeared.

103
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 3: Do you think John Baynor wants to get to the

104
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 3: bottom of this.

105
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 2: I will tell you this. The actions will speak clearly.

106
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 2: And the fact that we have not gotten to that

107
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 2: select committee, the fact that you have a really good,

108
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 2: clear majority of your majority one hundred and sixty one

109
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 2: signatures on that resolution to have a select committee, the

110
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: fact that you have you know, a member of your

111
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 2: conference represented Stockland bringing forth a discharge petition. Something should

112
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 2: be giving. And you know, if the Speaker has heard

113
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 2: the word of his conference, which is the majority, in

114
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 2: the House. This should not be something hard to do.

115
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 2: So I think that there are questions that the Speaker

116
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 2: has to answer as to why he is not supported

117
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 2: having this select committee and saying that we're going to

118
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 2: let things work out and that we have a strategy.

119
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 2: It's not working because with these five different committees, there

120
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,280
Speaker 2: is no unity of command, there's no unity of effort,

121
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 2: and we're not getting anywhere with this, and the American

122
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 2: people are tires of stonewalling.

123
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 3: I agree, Lieutenant Colonel Allen west Our esteem Senator Ted

124
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 3: Kruz is leading a charge to defund Obama Caro along

125
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 3: with Mike Lee and Marco Rubio and some others. Do

126
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 3: you believe that there is the muscle and the will

127
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 3: in the House to do that.

128
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,799
Speaker 2: I think that you have some that will be willing

129
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 2: to do that. But if you go back and remember

130
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 2: when Senator Richard Burr from North Carolina went to the

131
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 2: Senate floor and said this was the dumbest idea he

132
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 2: had ever heard. Well, if you have some of the

133
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 2: you know, the older Pacaderms within the Republican Party and

134
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: the leadership that are not going to support this, then

135
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 2: you have this this division and you have this separation.

136
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 2: You know, this is not about shutting down the government,

137
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 2: which is what everyone wants to try to make it

138
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 2: out to be. This is about saying that here we

139
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 2: have a law that even the President of the United States,

140
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 2: the executive branch by constitution who's supposed to execute laws,

141
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 2: are cherry picking the things that they want to participate

142
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: in or what they want to delay. You have union

143
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 2: groups that are saying that this is not, you know,

144
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 2: going to hurt their forty hour work week. You have

145
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 2: members of Congress that have an exemption for it as

146
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 2: well as their staff member. You see what is happening

147
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 2: with our small businesses and our economy and the fact

148
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,600
Speaker 2: that's going to add another trillion dollars to our deficit

149
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 2: over the next ten years. What I say is that

150
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 2: let's keep the government operating, but let's set this thing

151
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 2: to the side, and let's do the hard analysis and

152
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 2: assessment to say, let's make sure that we get this

153
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 2: right for implementation, because right now it's not ready for

154
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 2: prime time.

155
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 3: Lieutenant Colonel Allan West, former Congressman, and I know what's

156
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 3: on your mind, folks. You want to know what's next, because,

157
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: like me, you would like to see him re enter

158
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 3: elected office. I think he is very effective given the

159
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 3: stage he has created for himself as a.

160
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: Public policy advocate.

161
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 3: But I think all of us would like to see

162
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 3: him return to public life as an elected official, and

163
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 3: we'll ask him when.

164
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 4: We do that.

165
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: Coming up next now Michael Berry's show.

166
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 2: Everyone has a right to own a home? How does

167
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 2: that end up? Everyone has a right to healthcare?

168
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: How does that end up?

169
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 2: Greetings everyone, This is Representative Allen West, and you're listening

170
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 2: to a true American patriot, Michael Berry.

171
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 3: Lieutenant colonel and former congressman. American patriot. I dare say

172
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 3: American hero Alan West is our guest. I think he

173
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 3: has inspired a new generation of younger, more libertarian leaning

174
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 3: some folks who were disenfranchised after there, who were disgruntled

175
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 3: and disillusioned with this country, after their service to this country,

176
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:36,599
Speaker 3: with the way the government treated them. I think a

177
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,079
Speaker 3: lot of people have come back into the fold and said,

178
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 3: you know what, Yeah, we can fix this country.

179
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: We can.

180
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 3: And you know, I took it as a badge of

181
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 3: honor that the guy who ran against you got more

182
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 3: votes in a congressional district into which you were sort

183
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 3: of Jerry Manderd In my opinion, the Republican Party let

184
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 3: you down. I took it as a badge of honor

185
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 3: that you were defeated, because I said, you know, this

186
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 3: is going to be a great opportunity for him to

187
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 3: be freed of the shackles of traditional political office and

188
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 3: go do what he really wants to do and come

189
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 3: back on his terms.

190
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 2: Well, you know, you're absolutely right. And one of the

191
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 2: things that my faith teaches you is that you know,

192
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 2: when God closes the door, he opens up a far

193
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 2: better one. And if I could just go back to

194
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 2: one thing, you know, you hear a lot of people

195
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 2: say that the GOP does not offer any you know,

196
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 2: solutions for health care, and I would challenge people to

197
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 2: listen to Represented Tom Price down out of Georgia, who

198
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 2: is an orthopedic surgeon.

199
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 4: He has great solutions for what we can do to

200
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 4: lower the cost of health care in this country, which

201
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,839
Speaker 4: is really what the American people are looking forward to.

202
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,199
Speaker 4: Not this Onner's piece of legislation. There's nothing more than

203
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 4: a tax law. I mean, there's twenty to twenty one

204
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 4: new taxes in it, and we know that people aren't

205
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 4: very confident in this implementation so there are solutions that

206
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 4: are out there.

207
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 3: I need to keep you to one minute on this

208
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 3: so I can get to what I want to ask

209
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 3: at the end the fort Hood case. You've served in

210
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 3: the military, you served in Congress. Why is it taking

211
00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 3: so long?

212
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 4: It was my last duty station there in Texas, and

213
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 4: I will tell you that this is horrific that it

214
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 4: took four years. And this is part of political correctness

215
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 4: in our military.

216
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 2: The deceit.

217
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 4: Then the fact that you have Nadal Hassan, because I'm

218
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 4: not going to call him major. He's renounced as American citizenship,

219
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 4: he's renounced his oath as a as an army officer.

220
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 4: This is not workplace violence.

221
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 2: He says.

222
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 4: He's a soldier of Allah and he's aligned with the Taliban.

223
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 4: This is an act of terrorism. It should be treated

224
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 4: as such.

225
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: Is it I don't know the military code? I know

226
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 1: you do.

227
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 3: Is it typical that a case would have taken this long?

228
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 3: Or is this a political issue and not a shortcoming

229
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 3: of the military justice system.

230
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,679
Speaker 4: No, this is this is definitely a political issue. There

231
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 4: was no reason why this has taken almost four years

232
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 4: to come to court. The original judge who had demanded

233
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 4: that Nadal Hassanche. This beer was taken off the case,

234
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 4: which again is an indicator of the political correctness that

235
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 4: is there. So you know, this is becoming just a farce.

236
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,199
Speaker 4: And if this gentleman wants to have the death penalty,

237
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 4: let's give him a death kevity. And when he has done,

238
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 4: let's take his body somewhere out and burn it and

239
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 4: take the assage and spreend it, you know, all over

240
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 4: the Atlantic Ocean, and let's send a message to the

241
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 4: Jihadis that we are not playing games with you and

242
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 4: what you did this was a heinous crime and we

243
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 4: have to destroy this political correctness.

244
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,839
Speaker 3: I agree, Lieutenant Colonel Allen West. What's the next office

245
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,079
Speaker 3: you will run for? Because most of us want to

246
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,959
Speaker 3: see you on the ballot and in office.

247
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 4: Well you know that, you know that's up to whatever

248
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 4: path the Lord leaves me to be on. But you know,

249
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 4: we'll get back into the political scene in twenty sixteen.

250
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 4: Right now, there are a lot of things I can

251
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 4: do to help our cause, help our movement, be a

252
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:47,839
Speaker 4: strong voice and advocate for constitutional conservative principles, get out

253
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 4: there and help many of my former colleagues and candidates

254
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 4: in the twenty fourteen cycle to make sure that we

255
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 4: can maintain the House and maybe win the Senate. And

256
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 4: we cannot allow the last two years to be similar

257
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 4: to the first two years of the Aboument administration. The

258
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 4: culture of corruption and intimidation and the onerous, intrusive big

259
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,199
Speaker 4: government era has to end.

260
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 3: Will you, Lieutenant Colonel alland West, be weighing in on

261
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,719
Speaker 3: some of the races like Lindsey Graham in South Carolina

262
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,959
Speaker 3: where Robiness is challenging the incumbent. In Louisiana where there

263
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 3: will be internal Republican fights and there's a Tea Party candidate,

264
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 3: do you expect to get involved in those?

265
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 4: Well, I will do so judiciously. One of the things

266
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 4: is that I, you know, I'm not privy to one

267
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 4: to go stick my nose into other states or other

268
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 4: folks business. I think that if the people of that

269
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 4: state were to ask me to get involved in, I would.

270
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 4: But I'm not looking to try to make myself some

271
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 4: type of king maker or anything of that nature, or

272
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 4: to skew the internal politics of you know, any respective state.

273
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 4: But I am here as a resource to help out

274
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 4: that the people of a certain state would like for

275
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 4: me to do.

276
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 3: So, I dare say Lieutenant Colonel alland West. You have

277
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 3: been an inspiration to many in this country and I

278
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 3: hope you will continue to fight the good fight because

279
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 3: you have a lot of us out there that will

280
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 3: support you in any way you need it.

281
