After praising the South Carolina House of Representatives for voting to take down the Confederate flag from the State Capitol, Earnest quickly turned his fire on National Congressional Republicans and their party whip, Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA).
“A sizable number of House Republicans are eager to protect the status of the Confederate flag on National Park service grounds,” he said. “These are the same House Republicans who voted for a party leader who once described himself as ‘David Duke without the baggage,’” he said.
House Speaker Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) pulled the bill after it became a political fight over the Confederate flag.
Referring to Donald Trump, Earnest added that “these are the same congressional Republicans who have declined to criticize the race bating rhetoric of a leading Republican presidential candidate.”
“That’s to say nothing of the Senate Republican who has saluted that candidate,” he added, referring to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).
UPDATE: Boehner spokesman Cory Fritz reacted quickly to the White House attack with the following statement:
“Distorting fact to try and score cheap political points is no way to honor the victims of the horrific crime in Charleston. These childish attacks are completely dishonest, and beneath the dignity of the office of the presidency.”

Someone should tell Joshie boy that he is the White House spokesboy, not the Rat spokesboy.
Really? They speak for me?
Mrs Earnest’s lil boy Josher isnt capable of taking a clue and running with it. It comes too dangerously close to multi tasking. and for one who barely single task that could be deadly.
RUN JOSH RUN!!
Who cares what they think...the idiots!
where is that picture of Obama on the tricycle. The preschooler Earnest is out too trying to say that the republican will not play fair with Obama in the sandbox, so now Obama is threatening o remove the toys again. (The Tehran Iran Deal is not going well and Obama has to have something to claim as a problem in America to distract people from his failed foreign fiasco)!
....Or in full panic mode.
Or maybe both Sen. Cruz and Mr. Trump are both are saying to both Mr. Obama amd Mr. Earnest to simply pick up your toys are GO HOME.
I like this analogy so I’ll continue to use it: conservatives are in a situation akin to a very bad marriage. In this marriage over time the wife has shot the dog, burned dowm the house, sold the children’s kidneys on craigslist, and drained the bank account to buy crack. And now we come home to find her banging the neighbors in the front yard.
This confederate flag silliness is just one more chapter. At what point is the underlying marital relationship questioned?
Oh, how sweet. He caaaaares about us sooooo much.
I wish all white people could go on strike for a month.
Josh Earnest = Obama’s butt boy
Er, uhm - Barry, three words for you ... Senator Robert Byrd.
Now, please do not lecture Republicans on racism ...
Oh, and BTW, you treasonous sodomite communist cocaine-snorting asshole, the ‘Stars & Bars’ is NOT the flag of the Confederate States of America (CSA)! The Stars & Bars is the Confederate BATTLE FLAG OF TENNESSEE. Get a clue, you ignorant faggot-loving weasel.
We’ll get to the flag once we’ve fixed Democratcare and all of the Great Society problems that are still with us. A flag won’t buy you lunch or pay your bills.
We’re busy working on getting America working again, not playing race bait politics.
- If Boehner were a Conservative
That is true. Or they are like Kid Rock “You (meaning Odumbo and Earnest) Can Kiss My Arsche - Arsche is German (Deutsch) for ass!
FU Josh you sodomite pig!
I wish someone would have the gonads to say FU Obama you lying sack of crap. Oh wait joe Barton did that sans the fu and got ostracized for it.
Of course no one asked the pos pr guy what exactly did trump say and how is it incorrect.

I’ve seen large groups with the battle flag waving every day here in east Tennessee.
