Allen West: Eric Holder is More Dangerous to America than Al-Qaida Leader

Former Congressman Allen West is turning up the rhetoric as he continues to remain in the spotlight despite his loss to Democrat Patrick Murphy in November.

West took to Facebook on Wednesday and hinted that Attorney General Eric Holder, who is drawing fire for his role in targeting members of the press for investigation, is more dangerous than the leader of al-Qaida.

Which of these men scares you the most Ayman al-Zawahiri, leader of al-Qaida, or Eric Holder, U.S. attorney general? West posted. Click like and share if you are more terrified of your own government.

West has been raising his profile in recent days with talk of a political comeback in 2016 and a new Fox News gig. This type of rhetoric will probably help West remain in the limelight but it also underscores his penchant for gaffes (like saying a fifth of Congress were communists) and why the Republican establishment hopes he remains on the political sidelines.
