More quotes by Allen West
The republic I fell in love with, the republic I risked my life to defend, the values I hold dear, the integrity that we all share - these do not know prejudice and they do not accept partiality.
Allen West
These Planned Parenthood women, the Code Pink women, and all of these women have been neutering American men and bringing us to the point of this incredible weakness...We are not going to have our men become subservient.
Allen West
I will take my hands off Medicare when there is no Medicare, then I will come and see you, sir.
Allen West
We believe in humility and integrity, the spirit of one people, bound together under God. We understand that the Constitution was written to control and regulate the government, not the people.
Allen West
Conservatives understand that the power that binds our republic together is fierce independence held high on the shoulders of compassion.
Allen West
For far too long we've allowed the other side to paint us as racist, as sexist, inhumane war mongers - well, today as a conservative black Republican and former soldier, I'm here to set that record straight.
Allen West
Where is love exchanged? Where is the love felt when a state administrator stuffs a welfare check into an outgoing mail?
Allen West
And always remember, Abraham Lincoln only served one term in Congress, too.

Nowadays, many Americans have forgotten the meaning and traditions of Memorial Day. At cemeteries across the country, the graves of the fallen are sadly ignored, and worse, neglected.
Allen West
We must never forget why we have, and why we need our military. Our armed forces exist solely to ensure our nation is safe, so that each and every one of us can sleep soundly at night, knowing we have 'guardians at the gate.'
Allen West
In the real world, I see conservatives volunteering at adoption agencies, at churches, at bake sales and the local American Legion Post while the only charity a progressive sends is a smug sermon on fair share and what fairness is.
Allen West
This liberal progressive agenda... is the antithesis of who we are as a constitutional republic.
Allen West
I think that Governor Romney needs to talk about the fact that what he tried to do in the state of Massachusetts was him seeing what could be best for his state, but maybe it didn't work out as well.
Allen West
But when I look at the fact that today is 1,000 days that we have not had a budget for the United States of America, you know, the House, one of the things we did, we passed a budget last year. But that is still sitting over there at the Senate. And so we have got to get this country back on track.
Allen West
I do not believe having a baby is punishment.
Allen West
There's nothing on this green earth that a liberal progressive fears more than a black American who wants a better life and a smaller government.
Allen West
I think that if we get back to some basic fundamental principles, we can make sure that we resolve the issues. And I think that that's what the Tea Party was all about. It's getting back to a constitutional conservative government. And that is limited, but it's also effective and efficient. I think that that's what we'll be able to do.
Allen West
When did 'Ask not what your country can do for you' become 'Ask only what your country will give you'?
Allen West
I spent 22 years in the United States military, so I'm a pretty strategic level thinker.
Allen West
The great thing that I appreciate - the fact that my godfather, William 'Sticky' Jackson, was a Tuskegee Airman because my father was first born in Ozark, Alabama. The sacrifices and the commitment of those men made it possible for myself and many others.
