Just as he did in his defining moment in Iraq, Allen West tried to strong-arm the law in this election and break it to his will. But the law bounced back and bit him in the ass. The disgraced former military officer and confessed, unrepentant torturer will soon -- after much cynical, hyper-legalistic...
