Our American institutions have been friendly to her, and at this moment, I esteem it a chief felicity of this country, that it excels in women. -Ralph Waldo Emerson
Cathy over at Innocent Bystanders recently met Allen West and put up a report about her experience. Please go on over and visit. There are pictures.
One thing to know about this lady; she is ON FIRE to save this country from our ruinous path. She is committed, she is passionate, and she is delightful and lovely too. I have personally seen her confront strangers with the Tea Party message. She is direct and firm and persuasively pleasant, never bitter or enraged.
If you look at the ranks of the Tea Party, you will see that it is chock-a-block with ladies in leadership roles. It has often been noted that it takes an awful lot to rile conservatives to massive political action. But a sleeping giant has been awakened. And his wife is PISSED.
