CAIR Raises $2,625 From West's "Nuts" Letter

Allen West: "I ain't even in Congress anymore, and y'all still got my name on your lips"

Two weeks ago, Booker Rising mentioned that the Council on American-Islamic Relations was taking Ebay bids for the letter that conservative former Congressman Allen West sent them. Well, the auction is over. From The Miami Herald: "While still in office, controversial U.S. Rep. Allen West, R-Florida, wrote a brief but terse letter on August 4, 2011, to the Council on American-Islamic Relations chapter in South Florida. In the letter, West simply wrote 'NUTS' in responding to a letter from CAIR asking the congressman denounce 'anti-Islamic activists.'"

The article continues about CAIR's activities: "On Tuesday, CAIR officials announced the Ebay auction netted them $2,625. They reported a Stockton, Calif. man had outbid about a dozen other bidders for the West letter penned on congressional stationery. Said CAIR in a statement to media on Tuesday: 'We are taught in Islam to meet a bad deed with a good deed. So we turned Allen West's bad deed into 2,625 good deeds. We thank Allen West for his 'NUTS'! Every penny of these monies will be used to enhance understanding of Islam, encourage dialogue, protect civil liberties, empower American Muslims, and build coalitions that promote justice and mutual understanding.'"
