GOP Rebukes David Duke, But Not His Voters (LAUGH ALERT)
Chicago Tribune ^ | Jan 4, 2015 | Clarence the Crosseyed Page cpage@tribune.com

Just when I thought David Duke had gone the way of the Betamax, buggy whips and record stores, the former Ku Klux Klan leader, Republican politician and jailbird has re-emerged to haunt the new Republican-controlled Congress.

The new House Republican whip Steve Scalise of Louisiana apologized this past week for an honest "error in judgment" that led him to speak in 2002 to the European-American Unity and Rights Organization, a white nationalist group founded by Duke.

Somehow, Clarence would be much more convincing if he were at least a little concerned with our so-called president 0bama frolicking around with well-known racists like Rev Wright, Al Sharpton, Oprah, et al. as well.

Duke was a Democrat longer than he was a Republican. Strange how Pagey missed that little fact.

Scalise has a long record of blasting Duke without condemning all of Dukes' views.

So if a person holds ANY unacceptable opinions we must condemn ALL his views?

So so those who disapprove of Hitler's approach to demographic policy must also denounce anti-smoking, vegetarianism and humane treatment of animals?

Clarence Page is another intellectually dishonest liberal who ignores the rampant anti-Semitism sentiments of many Black leaders and runs to town whenever any White political or business leader is accused of being racist towards Blacks.

Actually Ole Clarence would be more convincing if he was right even just once in a while about anything. He is a half witted liberal affirmative action clown.

I’m guessing Clarence Page supported the Million Man March back in the 90’s which was led by Louis Farrakhan but I didn’t hear Page or any other Black media person repudiate Calypso Louie’s vile anti-Semitism.

Democrats rebuke William Ayers; but not his voters.
Democrats rebuke Al Sharpton . . .
Democrats rebuke Greenpeace . . .
Democrats rebuke William Byrd . . .

Oops. None of that happened at all.

1989: Successful run in special election for Louisiana House seat

In December 1988, Duke changed his political affiliation from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party.[3]

[Article] So far the party has found it easier to rebuke Duke than to risk losing his voters

So, um, what's the answer, Clarence? Take all those Louisiana ofays out and shoot them? That one was tried in 1861, it didn't quite work.

Glad to see you have identified The Problem, and it's all white. Now for a Final Solution. Got one yet?

Duke may have run for Senate and Governor as a Republican, but that doesn’t make him a Republican any more than Jim Jeffords was one.

Clarence is a dumba$$ donkey. Record stores have been on the rebound for 10 years now.

CDs are in decline.

And nobody nationally heard of David Duke when he was a Democrat candidate in Louisiana politics.

When David Duke was cheering Code Pink in their opposition "Bush's" Iraq War, I didn't hear Democrats, Communists, Pinkos, or Progressive denouncing him, his support, or his supporters.

Enough of the BULLSTALIN.

Meanwhile Clarence, what do you make of Baraq Hussien Ubama's 20 year history of associating with Jeremiah Wright as his personal mentor?

Small cars were also one of Hitler's views. People's Wagons.

The MMM rally (not much different than a KKK rally) was celebrated by the MSM in the 1990s. Movies, tv-specials, all sorts of mythmaking.

I heard Louis’ speech on the radio. Those Joooz.

The media selectively reports and selectively expresses outrage.
