KILMEADE KONDENSED 10/1/14
HOUR 1
The Wall Street Journal’s Bret Stephens opened the show discussing the Secret Service congressional hearings over their failures protecting the president. Stephens feels that the top 50 people in the secret service should have resigned and the New York City police department should take over protecting president Obama until they can revamp the secret service.
Turning to ISIS, Stephens said it is better to use a limited effective force to deal with ISIS than waiting too long and be forced to use a greater ground force.
Stephens discussed his latest article, “Obama Needs to Call Bush.” Stephens wrote that “having a long conversation with Mr. Bush is what Mr. Obama needs to do if he means to start salvaging his failing presidency” Stephens believes President Obama would find that President Bush is a genuine person who could help him revive his presidency the way President Bush did late in his second term. Stephens added that is shows a lack of class when President Obama constantly puts down former President George W. Bush.

Col. Allen West and Brian spoke about the Oklahoma beheading that took place last week and radical Islam in America. On protecting Americans from radical Islam, Col. West said we have a cancer in America which puts American citizens in increased jeopardy. West believes there is an overriding desire in America to be politically correct instead of putting the security of America and American citizens first.
On ISIS, Col. West told Brian if Baghdad falls, President Obama will blame President Bush and will not take any responsibility for the chaos in the Middle East. West told Brian that this is what happens when you get an incompetent community organizer as president.
Brian asked Col. West if he would consider heading the Secret Service if he was offered the position. West responded by saying “I will always serve my country and I can think of no greater honor than to lead a great organization of men and women like the Secret Service…and have the ultimate mission of protecting the president of the United States of America…”
