People like Allen West
who juggle
the two taxing
and multifaceted responsibilities
of hosting a Fox News show
and representing the Tea Party
can always be counted on
to bolster progressives' determination
to do right by our nation's
Thai-American immigrant female Iraq veterans
who lost both legs in combat
and won a Purple Heart
for their brave service
such as Tammy Duckworth
who like other Democrats
was thought to have diminished
the significance of Benghazi
by serving
on a special committee
to further investigate Benghazi
that consists only
of members of her party
(so unlike the GOP
they must have
an ulterior motive).
Why else would he say
"I just don’t know
where her loyalties lie"?
