GOP Senator Flips Kellyanne Conway Couch Controversy With Dig at Bill Clinton
Washington Free Beacon ^ | March 2, 2017 | Cameron Cawthorne

Posted on 03/02/2017 3:50:08 PM PST by kevcol

Sen. Tim Scott (R., S.C.) flipped the script on Wednesday night when he took the media-induced controversy revolving around White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway kneeling on the Oval Office couch and turned it into a jab at former President Bill Clinton.
.
.
.
"Come on, people. You remember the '90s. That couch has had a whole lot of worse things. Come on now," he said.
Scott's joke was referring to the infamous scandal where Clinton started having an affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky in the Oval Office.
.
.
.
various issues ranging from the Black Congressional Caucus to fake news.

"Greta, now that you're with MSNBC, maybe you can clear something up for me. Every time anyone in the media reports fake news, does Brian Williams get a royalty?" Scott joked.

"Why would I want to join a black group run by a white dude? In the South, we call that a plantation! I’m just saying," Scott said.

That particular couch might be in one of the Clinton homes atm.

That was my first thought when the Kellyanne nonsense started. Dems were perfectly ok with Clinton diddling an intern in the Oval Office, but Kellyanne putting her feet on the sofa is a scandal.

The Democrats should make this their big issue. Trivial.

I want to see if she was even in the official pic of the event. She looked well off to the side to me.

Keep in mind that the Congressional Black Caucus will NOT allow Tim Scott to meet with them. He’s not “black” you see.

Like what he said- but it deflected what was really going on by someone confident enough to think that it was OK for blatant sexist racist bigotry of a kind only seen in sports locker rooms with the “chickie” sports reporters who are NOT there for a story and assumed to be available. That is where the comment from ole “cedric” emotionally originated.

He had better apologize, publicly and loudly and soon. Call him out— twitter is completely on fire about this. People have had enough of this “black power/blm” males with their rapper mentality. This one is yet another criminal from LA 2nd district (and the 9th Ward). Hey cedric— got any “cold cash” in the freezer at home (recall Cong. William Jefferson during Katrina, caught and prosecuted for bribery, now serving 13 years from 2009). It didn’t take long for the LA 2nd Congressional District to dump a remarkable victory of Republican Vietnamese-American Cao, to return to the same old New Orleans rip-off race baiter and grafter, who is apparently a real rape-o type, who feels safe attacking Mr. Trumps campaign manager. This is not sitting well in N.O.
