Is There A SpeaKKKer in Your Future?

[Correll]

If having roots to the KKK is cause for disqualification to the speakership, no Democrat can ever occupy that post.

You're confused as usual. Steve Scalise is a Republican.

Being that the KKK was created by the Democratic Party, I think YOU'RE the one who is confused.

I'm not confused at all that the Democrats were the bad guy of days past and Republicans are the racist bad guys of days future.

By racist, you of course mean he was in a big complex where at another time in another room a racist group met.

That is proof of racism when the subject is a republican.

If the subject is a democrat, the subject can join a racist group, have close political and social relations with the racist leader for twenty years and not be racist.


Different rules for different people.

Cool.

And robert byrd, the revered democrat Senator was an actual member of the klan…he was a kleagle, a recruiter for the klan……

And every single core group in the democrat party, today, is an openly racist organization…..and the leadership of the party is openly racist….and you don't or refuse to see it…..

 

[Correll]

Liar.

YOu've supported your attack on Scailse by citing David Dukes words as evidence.

Has it occurred to you that David Duke has tremendous motive to lie about this?

That's why Mark Levin and Sean Hannity campaigned for the removal of the entire House leadership team. Right. Nothing was there.

Has it occurred to you that David Duke has tremendous motive to lie about this?

Do you understand what it is?

I understand that the motivation to deflect is out of a pure desire to not be destroyed because someone found out what was going on.

I still don't understand why you trust David Duke. Can you please tell me why you find him so believable?

Have you considered his motivation to lie?

I don't trust David Duke and I don't trust Steve Scalise. I think both of them are wrong for America and only one is in a position of legislative influence and is whispering more power.

You keep showing your trust by building your argument and your opinion upon information provided to you by Duke.

Have you considered Duke motivation to lie?

 

[nuhuh]

So a chance to heal the Speaker of the House position with someone rumored to have roots with the KKK. Good going Republicans dig your hole deeper and keep wondering why people call you the party of racists.

"House staff members, who asked not to be named because they are not authorized to speak publicly, confirmed that Scalise is preparing a run for majority leader. And Jack Pandol, spokesman for Rep. Charles Boustany, R-Lafayette, said his boss met with Scalise and pledged to support his candidacy for majority leader.

That means likely candidates for House speaker are current Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., Rep. Pete Sessions, R-Texas, and Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, who has been leading a coalition of conservative members insisting that Boehner and other GOP leaders take a hard line on defunding Planned Parenthood, even it means a government shutdown.

...snip...

Scalise would likely have solid support for the speaker's post. He has largely rebounded, at least with the GOP membership, from negative news reports in late 2014 following revelations that he had spoken to members of a white supremacist group linked to David Duke in 2002 when he was a state representative. But it's also likely that some colleagues wouldn't want to make him the face of the House GOP leadership given that controversy."

You guys are so silly….your racists are just out in the open and you don't care…….our guys…stumble into some situation and you guys hang them for it….

Bill, the rapist, clinton..his actual political mentor was racist, segregationist, J. William Fulbright….an actual, racist pig….and he was a close personal friend of bill the rapist clinton…and he even gave they guy a Presidential medal of freedom and dedicated a statue to him…..

And your current President….obama…sat in an actual, openly racist church for 20 years…and let the racist pastor, jeremiah wright marry him and his wife and baptize their children….

You guys don't even realize how racist the democrat party actually is…….it is like completely beyond you…….

the last two democrat Presidents were openly racist…...

No one in the Democratic party is trying to keep their head above the fray, they know they have been bad at race relations and continually try to repair problems. The difference is the Republican party has a voting record about race relations they would rather not talk about and deny that they are racist at all. You people must think people are stupid and can't read or see the truth. The Democratic Party has skeletons, no doubt. The Republican Party hasn't even reached the stage where they want to talk about it.

 

[Seawytch]

I predict that regardless of who ends up speaker, it won't improve the approval rating of Congress.

WIth smear campaigns like this one, it certainly won't.

Do you mind if I ask you if you find David Duke to be trustworthy?

 

[CrusaderFrank]

The Bobby Byrd Grand Kleagle Conscious of the Senate Party taking about the KKK just broke every irony meter in the galaxy

Liar. Only someone like you would work based off of rumors instead of facts.

Steve Scalise spoke to civic association meeting, not white nationalist conference, David Duke adviser Kenny Knight says

 

[OKTexas]

Lies upon lies.

Scalise spoke in the same building complex and on the same day, as a white supremacist group met.

Asked about it, years later, he honestly stated that he could not remember if he had spoken to them unscheduled and unaware that they were a white supremacist group.

Yep. I wouldn't have remembered it either if I had any ambition at all and I sure wouldn't have David Dukes out there saying he was my BFF (oops how did that happen)?

So, you consider David Duke a reliable source?

Steve Scalise considers him a reliable friend.

Liar.

YOu've supported your attack on Scailse by citing David Dukes words as evidence.

Has it occurred to you that David Duke has tremendous motive to lie about this?

They have been campaigning for the same reason I have. Republicans were put into office on a promise to STOP your dear leaders agenda. They have stated their position, dug their fighting positions and did nothing but shit in them. They cave a the least opposition, giving a million excuses why the won't do as promised. I've told my congressman that I will actively campaign against him, even though I generally like him, because he keeps voting for lame leadership, making him part of the problem. I've will call his office today, and reinforce my position.

If he is actually running for the House Speaker position you can rest assured that any question about his past will be answered before he is elected.

 

[g5000]

Scalise described himself as "David Duke without the baggage".

Until then, stop posting unsubstantiated claims about the man. Typical liberal, always leaping to conclusions...

Because you suggest it? Oh hell no. This is a political hot potato and it is going nowhere but to the headlines of tomorrow.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Yeah, that's just it. You're not a psychic, the crystal ball shoved up your backside is busted.

Thirteen years have gone by, and nobody has been able to confirm that he spoke at that EURO rally.

Because you suggest it? Oh hell no.

I don't care what you do. You are no different from the trolls on this board, inciting controversy based on rumors and speculation. So far in your thread you have not been able to prove Scalise did what "rumors" claim he did.

Because in your case, the controversy doesn't exist. You're the one who's manufacturing it. I destroyed your little meme with one link. Time to concede.

Robert Byrd passed on years ago. He was in the senate.and he was a Democrat.

So he obviously isn't going to be speaker of the house.

No one in the Democratic party is trying to keep their head above the fray, they know they have been bad at race relations and continually try to repair problems.

by voting record you mean ending slavery and voting for every single civil rights legislation ?

[Correll]

I just want to take a moment to point out that this is what the Left is reduced to in their attempts to maintain the Myth that the GOP is the party of Racism.

Dredging up a possible rumor, supported by none other than David Duke, from 12 years ago, where a man MIGHT have possibly unknowingly spoken to some racists.

Really guys?

If you have to work this hard to find "evidence" of racism, it is time to reconsider your assumptions.
