Apparently Rep. Allen West can't keep around an intern that's friendly with the gays.
Roll Call is reporting that West's unnamed male intern -- who retweeted a Twitter post from the gay-themed New York band Scissor Sisters that was originally discovered by New Times -- has been canned.
West was reportedly with his staff in Fort Lauderdale while the interns were running the show at his office in Washington, D.C.
Here's the original tweet -- which was quickly deleted from Rep. West's page -- signed by the band's lead singer, "Ana Matronic," making reference to comedian Tracy Morgan's antigay rant during a show in Nashville, Tennessee, a couple of weeks ago:
Happy trails, intern.
