Allen West, FL tea party fuckwad, loses (again), denies loss

[brinstar]

cliff's notes:

• tea party guy brings congressional douchebaggery to new lows as a freshman GOP rep (he's the guy who says 90% of democrats are communists)
• runs for reelection
• gets beat Nov 6 by a large enough margin so as not to trigger automatic recount
• ballot results get certified
• but he refuses to concede
• instead, throws leftover campaign $ into a lawsuit to force a recount
• recount results show an even bigger margin of loss
• recount results re-certified
• still refuses to admit loss

brings up two points:

1. why does it matter? does the local election commission seriously not have the power to just say "bro you're done, deal w/ it" and must instead wait for him to concede? how is this even still a thing

2. what a bitch lol

LEVIN: You are a national treasure. You are way too important to have something like this to happen and off you go. That can’t happen. So I’m really curious to know. Do you have further public service in mind, potentially?

WEST: The most important thing everyone has to understand is my voice is not going to be lost. We’ve gotten a lot of opportunities, a lot of offers, and we’re going to make sure we continue to have that platform. [...] I’m a warrior and I’m a statesman and I’m a servant of this republic. I’m not going away just because of a congressional race where he seems to have to cheat to beat me.

LEVIN: He sure as hell did. It’s disgusting.

yes, because it is INCONCEIVABLE that people just think you're a douchebag, there HAD to be foul play involved

this is why fuck the tea party and the GOP forever
