LOL.

That acronym could be a common reaction to Rep. Allen West's comment to the Sun-Sentinel editorial board on Wednesday in response to a question about whether Mitt Romney's a flip-flopper.

"No," West replied. "Look I'm not into name-calling, all that kind of stuff."

Let's play Politifact here for a second and fact-check the claim that West isn't "into name-calling."

• Herman Cain: "Distracter"
  
• Occupy Wall Street: "Gangs"
• Occupy Wall Street: "Sons of anarchy"
  
• Gene Sperling: "Idiot"
• New Times: "Idiot liberals"
• New Times: "Delusional dummies"
• New Times: "A bunch of losers"
• Maxine Waters: "Plantation overseer"
• Obama supporters: "A threat to the gene pool"
• Allen West: "Right-wing extremist"
• Allen West: "Harriet Tubman"
  
• Joe Biden: "Nutty"
• President Obama: "Marxist"
• Debbie Wasserman Schultz: "Most vile, unprofessional, and despicable member of the U.S. House of Representatives"

Yeah, we'd say he's "into name-calling" and "that kind of stuff."

We rate West's claim as being false.
