“Jesus dined with tax collectors and sinners. It’s not the healthy who need a doctor, it’s the sick. Given that piece of Scripture, and understanding that Scalise probably wasn’t staffed thoroughly, I could understand how something like this happened. But I know his heart, I’ve painted houses with him post-Katrina, and I know he is a good man.”

Ummm, OK. So, because Scalise helped another racist paint houses for some photo-ops after a hurricane, he’s a good man beyond reproach and should be compared to Jesus? Sounds ’bout right.

Meanwhile, even though Scalise is doing his best to show he has no relationship with Duke, the ex-KKK Grand Dragon spoke out late Monday night stating he has met with Scalise several times. Ironically, Duke also used Christ-like imagery when speaking about Scalise to Fusion, saying Republicans better be careful about vilifying him due to his association with Duke.

“If Scalise is going to be crucified — if Republicans want to throw Steve Scalise to the woods, then a lot of them better be looking over their shoulders.”

According to Duke, politicians from all across the spectrum need to be careful about trying to make political hay over Scalise’s association with him as he’s willing to release the names of others he’s met with. In terms of threats, this one wasn’t even veiled.

Would Jesus Christ have voted against MLK Day - TWICE?

Steve Scalise Voted Against Martin Luther King Holiday Twice
 
It doesn't matter that he apologized and expressed regret. He won't be forgiven and embraced by the left, the way Robert Byrd (KKK) was. Right, chief?

Well, I certainly would never have voted for him.....but not being from WV, I never had the opportunity to reject him.

I can forgive Byrd for his past but I wouldn't embrace him. Same with Scalise. You, however, will try to brand Scalise while defending Byrd.

What Scalise did was an accident. He spoke to a group with a questionable agenda without realizing what that agenda was, according to him. However, it will damage him and the Republican Party will most likely keep him at arms length because of it.

Byrd, on the other hand, was a high ranking member of the KKK and spent his life espousing hatred for an entire race of people in addition to using his position in government to keep them from having basic civil rights. But the Democratic Party, instead of keeping him at arms length, embraced him, made him their party leader, and helped him get elected to the Senate 9 times.

West Virginians loved Byrd - because he brought home lots of bacon for the state. They also loved his music.

When did I ever defend Byrd for supporting segregation, asshole?

So, do you condemn the Democratic Party for supporting his 9 terms in the Senate and making him their leader?

And the Democaratic Party, who gave us the KKK, also loved his racism.
