Former Rep. Allen West’s (R-FL) read on coverage of Donald Sterling is that it acted as a distraction from the real ongoing scandal: Benghazi.
In a blog post, West argued that Sterling’s racist comments and the National Basketball Association’s response by banning him from the league received an an undue amount of coverage compared to other issues, like Benghazi.
Here are the key paragraphs of West’s post:
Or how about the lies and deceit of President Obama on healthcare and of course Benghazi, which we now know a video had nothing to do with.
Has our culture devolved to the point that the private statements of an NBA owner draws more outrage than the lies and deceit of the President of the United States?
Donald Sterling’s behavior is despicable, but so is that of President Barack Hussein Obama — and whose abhorrent behavior has more impact on our country?
The difference is that the media lead us along like sheep to the slaughter, turning us into reactionary, shallow thinking, low information voters along the way. We know more about Sterling than Benghazi — or the IRS scandal.
West’s post on Wednesday came a day after Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said e-mails about the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi were a “smoking gun” which showed that the White House wanted to portray the attack as the result of a protest that didn’t happen.

Well Allen, you know more about the psychotic voices in your own head than you do about reality.
Mr. West, we know more about Benghazi than you want to admit. The problem for you is that you’re so desperate to attack President Obama and blame others for the fact that you were drummed out of the military for breaking the UCMJ that you are willing to lie, deceive and be a general pain rather than deal with reality.
And we all know more a/b everything and anything than you do, Mr. I’m Too Stupid to Get Re-elected.
There is a simple solution, stop all congressional activity and just focus on BENGHAZI!!!, repealing Obamacare, and whatever you slimers think the IRS did wrong, until the Hillary Wave of 2016 sweeps all the anti-American right wing trash out of congress
It’s the only way this pitiful, lying sack of s–t can get attention.
