Glenn Beck’s ‘dream’ presidential ticket: Allen West-Michele Bachmann

[RamboLiberal]

Glenn Beck says his presidential “dream team” would feature rookie U.S. Rep. Allen West, R-Plantation, for president and U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., as his running mate.

“I want to start a Draft Allen West movement,” Beck said on his radio show today.

West has a strong national following, but has rejected presidential speculation and criticized “leadership by cult of personality.” Bachmann is exploring a White House run.

Beck praised West for the 2003 incident in Iraq in which West fired a gun near the head of an Iraqi detainee to get him to divulge details of a suspected ambush. West, who was initially charged with assault, ended up being relieved of his command, paying a $5,000 fine and retiring as a lieutenant colonel with a full pension.

4. In an earlier decade, he would have done so from a padded cell....

..while Nurse Ratched was injecting him with strong anti-psychotics.

[Liberal Veteran]

2. More like: "I had a really fucked up dream last night!"

Can he be voted off the island?

3. He is trying to substitute Obama & Hillary w/ a looney GOP black & looney GOP woman

It didn't work when McCain put up Palin to replace Hillary, and it won't work now.

If you look at the political field they are both perfect for beck and his ilk.

Why did you put race and gender in there?

9. I had that dream too. Didn't know whether to laugh, cry, scream or off myself....
