OFF THE WIRE
First some Alpha Biker commentary... this article references a previous article posted a few hours before this... the video is in that article... we are not going to repost it a-fuckin'-gain. Now... somebody deserves the "Big Hairy Middle Finger" here... but there are so many potential recipients... and frankly anyone mentioned in this article probably deserves at least two... we are going to just give one BHMF to anyone even remotely associated with this article.
Now on a positve note... check out halfway through the article the reference to "oral relief stations"... now that's poetry right there... we will see if we can have one of our brothers work that into a song.

The Friday report generated a flurry of reaction and counter-reaction from both sides.
The West campaign alleged NBC particpated in a "political hatchet job by the liberal mainstream media."
And the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, on behalf of incumbent Congressman Ron Klein, sought to use the report to tarnish West.
Details below:
From West campaign manager Josh Grodin:
In what can only be described as a political hatchet job by the liberal mainstream media, NBC News - through reporter Lisa Myers - made an outrageous claim that LTC(R) Allen West condones criminal activity. Myers clearly has an agenda to try and stop good people like Allen who oppose the far left policies that are wreaking havoc upon our country.
It should not come as a surprise to the good people of South Florida that incumbent Ron Klein and his cronies in the Democratic Party are playing dirty tricks to destroy the character of a man who served 22 years in the US Army. Just like when they sent LTC(R) West's social security number to tens of thousands of Florida residents, this is another desperate move for a politician who sees his power slipping away.
Let me be perfectly clear, Allen West has absolutely no ties to the outlaw bikers club - an organization with a history of criminal activity, as well as racism against African Americans.
But I want to know - When will Congressman Klein, the Democratic Party and their cheerleaders at NBC & MSNBC start talking about their records? When will they "drain the swamp" of Members with multiple ethics charges? This is supposed to be the People's House. They accuse Allen West of hanging around with criminals, yet Congressman Klein is making the rounds in the District with impeached Federal Judge, Alcee Hastings.
In just over 2 weeks, the voters in Congressional District 22 will have the opportunity to tell these politicians that enough is enough - you will not earn their votes by denigrating American veterans. For the civilized voters in Congressional District 22, November 2nd cannot get here soon enough.
From the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee:
