I am liking this guy more and more. Sounding a lot like someone I voted for in 1980.

"But take heart, America. Jack Black, Morgan Freeman, Farshad Farahat, Valerie Plame, and the others will be kept free by the exertions of true Americans, lions. The incessant noise of the sheep will be drowned out by the powerful roar. America as a nation will, as it states in Isaiah 40:31, “mount up upon wings like Eagles.” We will not grow faint or weary. Our strength shall be renewed. I know the Ayatollahs are viewing this video and believing they’ve achieved victory. They’ve only won a battle, but the victory shall indeed be ours. We’ll herd the sheep into a pen with lots of grass, and then the fighters will arise and provide them with the safety they’re incapable of providing.

It was Plato who said, “only the dead have seen the end of war.” I’m not about dying, but rather living — and living to the fullest in the greatest nation the world’s ever known. Let’s all remember when the Lions of Lacedaemon, the Spartans, stood before the invading Persians at Thermopylae 480 BC. When King Leonidas was told by Xerxes’ army to lay down his arms, his reply was not, “OK, we were just kidding and don’t really want to fight, because surrender and appeasement is a better course of action to war.”

Nope, he replied with two simple words, Molon Labe."
But Leonidas was betrayed by another Greek. Hopefully that will not be our fate, but we preach peace over and over and don't stop to think that while we want peace, sometimes we have to fight.

The more I see from Lt. Col. Allen West the more I believe he could be this generation's George Washington.
