Harriet Tubman must be rolling in her grave with embarrassment and shame that this cretin would say he is like her.

What a slap in the face to the legacy of Harriet Tubman from a man who is funded by today’s modern plantation owners. He dares to call himself a leader of his race when he presides in a party that has purposely stroked racial fears in the hearts of ignorant white folk ever since Pres. Obama decided to run for president. His media, FOX News and right wing radio, on a daily basis, has subtly (and at times not no subtly) made racial slurs towards the Pres. while the rest of corporate media stands on the sideline letting this injustice go on often being a part of this messaging. The rise of racist white hate groups are at an all time high since the civil rights movement of the 60′s.

Allan West is just another deceitful, self-serving, psychologically damaged asshat that resides in that ignorant, batshit crazy place that makes up today’s Republican/Tea Party. But the fact that he is a black man that resides in a party that is getting crazier everyday does in no way make him a modern day Harriet Tubman. What it does make him is a modern day “Uncle _ _ _ ” (you fill in the blank).
