"And the very GOP establishment now lining up behind Steve Scalise threw Chris McDaniel under the bus for speaking to a Sons of the Confederate Veterans event."

Scalise will likely be protected because he's a worthless go-along. Hopefully, this news will convince somebody to both challenge him for his Whip position, AND to primary him next year!

Isn’t it ironic, that a white racist, and possibly even a white racist who has forsaken racism, never ever will have forgiveness, but if a POS like Al Sharpton ever forsakes racism, he would be forgiven in one second. Maybe not by many of us, but the Media sure would forgive him.

He had to leave Louisiana because he didn’t like its politicians ?
That’s taking political obsessions too far.
If the bad politicians were making life uncomfortable on some concrete level, such as there was high unemployment and it was hard to find work, or taxes were too high, that’s one thing, but it seems rather fanatical to put such personal weight on politics without such a personal impact.

How do you not know? How do you not investigate?

This was not directly his fault. His staff was incompetent. He 'might' have known, but his staff should have vetted this request. Same with campaign contributions.

“How do you not know? How do you not investigate?”

The same way the Democrats looked the other way while a KKK member (Imperial Wizard), Senator Byrd (a Democrat) controlled the Senate for more than 40 years without a single word from Democrats!

Seriously? You do know the FBI. Covered for Whitey Bulgar, the Attorney General smuggled weapons, blah blah blah and you are suprised Trent Lott courted the white supremacist in his home state?

LOL!
Scalise is one of the (sorta) good guys.

Scalise’s first effort as whip resulted in the blocking of an amnesty bill of Boehner’s.
Boehner then cracked down on him by installing a ‘keeper’ on Scalise’s staff.
Obviously Boehner now wants him removed.

Scalise is in a conservative district and has a conservative voting record.

My guess is the establishment doesn’t want him.

How the hell does somebody show up at a David Duke organized event in 2002 and claim ignorance?

Beats me, Erick, How does someone sit in Jeremiah Wright's church for TWENTY YEARS and claim ignorance?

Of course, the _Resident has been ignorant all his life.

“How Do You Show Up at a David Duke Event and Not Know What It Is? (Steve Scalise)”

The same way you go to Jeremiah Wright’s “church” for years, hearing anti-white and anti-American sermons yet dodn’t seem to hear any of that or realize there is an issue. If that was a non-issue, Erick, then same with Scalise. (Who, if he is kicked out of the Republican “leadership”, should be kicked out for falling in line with Boehner’s shenanigans, not for attendance at a 2002 white group outing.)

How do you go to a Black Supremist church for 12 years, sit in the FRONT PEW, but remain absent for ALL of the times the famously racist Preacher said racist stuff...?

Same for Oprah, I believe.

Or:

Maybe per Al Gore after a lot of iced-tea he visited the commode when they said the bad stuff.?

Sheesh, there are TONS of ways, it occurs to me, now.

I think it would be rather easy to show up at some of these events and not know who all the speakers are. I’ve shown up at plenty to have ten or fifteen people address the crowd. I know only a few names going in.

If he had instead spoken to a meeting of black nationalists, that would have been fine.

Or maybe if he had attended a meeting of socialists who were about to decide that some US Senators needed to be assassinated, that would be a further qualification for office.

How do you sit in a racist church every Sunday for twenty years and meet with the Pasture personally and never hear anything he said?
