I'm not the biggest fan of FOX New "Democrat' and Hannity's pal, Bob Beckel, but I give him points for this:
----
Yesterday, things got pretty fiery on The Five thanks to the comments Rep. Allen West made this weekend saying that President Obama and other leaders of the Democratic Party should get the hell out of the United States of America. Bob Beckel went off on the comments, saying hed never heard anything more disgraceful in my life. This morning, West demanded an apology but, on todays Five, Beckel made it clear that one wont be forthcoming.
West made the demand today on Fox & Friends. He carefully explained that he totally didnt say that Obama should get the hell out, merely that his message should. Obviously, this is entirely different because, presumably, the President can send his message over the mail and never have to physically leave the country himself. See? Beckel totally overreacted.
Anyway, the thing that apparently really annoyed West was that Beckel refused to call him by his title when Eric Bolling told him to. For this, he said he would await Beckels apology. However, it doesnt seem like itll be here any time soon.
Mr. West, Beckel said. Let me just tell you, if youve got enough time you can wait, but I am not going to apologize to you.

(61,608 posts)There's nothing wrong with saying that something is disgraceful. Republicans are all about freedom of speech until somebody says something to one of them.
