Update to this story.
Via BizPacReview:
U.S. Rep. Allen West accused fellow Congressman Alcee Hastings of “political elitism” over comments Hastings made to an online media site about an alleged Chick-Fil-A incident.
Hastings told the Huffington Post that West had offended the entire Congressional Black Caucus about six months ago, when he brought in chicken and biscuits from Chick-Fil-A when it was his turn to provide lunch at a weekly meeting.
Responding to Hastings comments, West said today he did not recall any controversy over the meal in question, adding that there was nothing left of the food when the meeting was over. He questioned Hastings’ motives, calling it a case of “political elitism.”
