Scalise Story Shifts Again; Kenny Knight Says Scalise Didn't Attend EURO Gathering At All
The trouble with this claim is that Kenny Knight was David Duke's campaign manager, and Steve Scalise's friend; he therefore has reason to distort the truth to Scalise's advantage.
However, his new, more detailed account denies Scalise "attended" or "spoke at" a Duke meeting at all. He seems to have scheduled a Scalise gathering in the same hotel space as a EURO meeting which was due to be held later that day. I don't know. I have to say I don't really care.Comments

All of this is just some attempt by the left to salvage the election AFTER they already lost it.

I wouldn't piss on John Boehner if he were on fire, so watching a Boehner ally and protege get in public relations trouble does not engender deep sympathies either.
On the other hand, it's tiring when black racial radicalism is deemed perfectly okay, and Hispanic racial radicalism is deemed perfectly okay, but white racial radicalism is instantly condemned as OMG UNTHINKABLE.
Either racially radical speech in all forms is part of the continuum of discourse in a rowdy but free society, or else the purges of all of it must begin. This business of actively promoting some forms of racial radicalism while simultaneously hounding other forms of it is incoherent crap.

They were in the same neighborhood ("blocks away" according to Slate), recognized each other inasmuch as Scalise waved at Knight on occasion and Knight did give a contribution of $1000 to Scalise while he was a state rep.
Ordinarily a $1K contribution isn't a big deal, but it is for a state rep. So maybe there's something there, but it seems they were friendly neighbors.
At this point, if the media wants to push the story, they really have to ask the Red Cross and the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's office why they sent reps there.
There were a bunch of conservatives on Twitter trying to use this as an "oust Boehner" battlecry. The fascinating thing is that the Twitter mob force Scalise to address the story right away. He does and the exact same people mock him for apologizing for doing something he apparently didn't do. Schoolyard shit.
I guess Scalise is revealed as kind of a doofus and not savvy enough for leadership, but suppose this kind of Sacco-ing happens to somebody you actually like?
YAIMP (yet another Internet moral panic).

Yeah, this "should have known" BS is getting old as well. Duke ran for governor in 1991. This event was 11 years later. It is now 12 years after that event. That's how much time had passed. People were not running around focused on who exactly was running David Duke's organization 10 years later.
And maybe because Knight doesn't tell anybody? In fact, he was head of this "civic organization". That's probably because he volunteered. If the president of my condo association were a neo-Nazi, I wouldn't know. Even now.

Yeah it's freaking great that we absolutley detest people who ostensibly should be on our side but there it is.
Scalise has already issued an apology for speaking at an event he apparently didn't speak at so that doesn't say much for his intelligence.
So again nobody should shed a tear over this jerkwad other than it sends a bad message that Republicans can be hounded out of office over literally nothing, but we already know this.

What those two have taught me is that you can do all that stuff when the "objective, neutral, nonpartisan" news media are in reality an active auxiliary of your political party.
By the way, anyone else note that one of the earlier questionable rape stories published by _Rolling Stone_ was under the byline of Nina Burleigh?
That's the very same Nina Burleigh who used to be the White House correspondent for _Time_ during the Clinton years.
The same Nina Burleigh who said that not only would she have chosen not to cover the Lewinsky scandal if she had her druthers, but that she would also have been quite happy to personally drop to her knees and give the Big Dog a blowjob herself in exchange for his keeping abortion legal.

it's all about "guilt by association." They want to tar anyone even vaguely on "his side" to be tarred with the racism brush. (And the tar-brush is itself racist!)
They've been playing this game for, what, 40 years?
It's played out. No one gives a shit anymore.
In academia, and now leaking into the mainstream the "guilt by association" has already reached its endpoint:
If you live in America, you are connected to the slave trade, thus you are guilty.
If youre skin is somewhat pallid, you are connected to the slave trade, this you are guilty.
If you self-identify or are identified by others as "white," you have "white privilege" whether you admit it or not, and thus you are guilty.
We're already in the post-guilt-by-association phase.
And guess what? It failed. 90% of whites say "fuck you" to that whole garbage. The other 10% are brainwashed college students with useless degrees.

Either racially radical speech in all forms is part of the continuum of discourse in a rowdy but free society, or else the purges of all of it must begin. This business of actively promoting some forms of racial radicalism while simultaneously hounding other forms of it is incoherent crap.

There's even some larger than country pride allowed -- I could swear I've seen some Slavic Pride type events and groups to celebrate the Slavic people as a whole who are split up among many countries. I could be wrong, though, not a Slav.
And, of course, Spaniards are included in the Hispanic Pride crap for some reason. Weirdly, Portuguese are increasingly included as well. I guess as some broader Latino Pride crap as more Brazilians immigrate to America and get lumped into the hispanic bucket.

Another thing: This circular bullshit that the Left keeps throwing at us is as consistent as "water found on the Moon/Mars" and "Amelia Earhart's plane/remains found" stories that eternally pop up at regular intervals. It's only a matter of days or weeks until the focus will shift to some homosexual grievance and we can all dance to that tune.
At a certain point we all need to realize we're being taken for idiots. We are but an organ-grinder's monkey dancing to whatever song the Left plays.
Well, I hate fucking monkeys and I refuse to be treated as one. So I say Scalise, the Left, David Duke, obama, and the media can take a flying leap! I.Don't.Care.

If you believe his backstory, it really isn't all that surprising. He claimed that as a young rep who was one of the very few opposed to some tax and spending stuff going on in the LA legislature, he was running around and speaking to any group who invited him in hope of building support to defeat the issue. He had one staffer and just went where he/she told him to go.
I would be willing to bet you couldn't find 2 members of Congress who could recall every single speaking engagement they gave 12 years prior. So an "I don't remember speaking to this group, don't even know who they are but now that it has been described to me I find their beliefs abhorrent and I am sorry I ever spoke to them" seems to be pretty standard stuff for any pol.

The story was that he was giving hundreds of these speech about his small gov legislation he was trying to get through. He was moving from one event to the next and most likely doesn't have any idea all the events he went to. So he issued a mea culpa hoping the issue would drop.
It won't because of the MFM kissing Democrat Ass and repeating their talking points. He should know that.

Scalise was well away of who Duke was. Duke was still active in Louisiana politics, including as a potential opponent for Scalise around this time.
That would have been quite a trick given that Duke was being chased by the feds for fraud and living overseas at the time.
Posted by: JackStraw
There was a to-do, after the raid on Duke's offices and during his trail and imprisonment, about his rights to still run for office.
Further, Duke was a local to Scalise's area, which is why Scalise made his later "Duke can't get elected to represent your interests *wink* but I can" speech.

But this story died in the crib. It's an inside-the-beltway story now, which means that it will be obliquely alluded to when Scalise's name comes up. Depending on the allusion, the LIV won't even know what the writer means or they might just assume Scalise is a former klansman.

The "1 in 5" hoax was debunked within 15 minutes of first being released. Every statistic ever published about rape completely debunked it.
There were articles pointing out that the fake stat was produced by the UC Berkeley Gender Studies Department using laughable criteria.
None of that mattered. Biden, Obama and the rest of the left instantly treated it as fact.

Meanwhile every college is complying with Obama's new mandate to lower the burden of proof standard for rape accusations on campus.
Harvard Law just settled yesterday with the Feds on this. New, lower standard goes into effect now. Before it was "preponderance of evidence", now it's just "more likely than not", 50.1% standard.
Left has used Title IX to gut protections for men accused of sexual assault.
They are winning the war, even if we won the UVA rape hoax battle.

i judged Obama and his minions on similar actions.
was that wrong?
is He who we think He is?
certainly His actions led credence to Who He chose to hang out with..
anyway.

Well, I hate fucking monkeys and I refuse to be treated as one. So I say Scalise, the Left, David Duke, obama, and the media can take a flying leap! I.Don't.Care.
Moreover, if one gets in a cage with monkeys who like throwing crap, more than likely you get crap on you. Postmodernism logic isn't logic, it is the fallacies of Aristotelian logic.

nor have a guaranteed record of selling out the venue.

Parents of accused males need to wage unrestricted lawfare against universities on this issue. No out-of-court settlements. Unconditional victory.
The campus "rape" regulations are a modern Intolerable Act, and should be treated just so.

Yup. Because....
-More women are beaten on Super Bowl Sunday than any other day of the year.
-Cuba has a lower infant mortality rate than the US
-1 in 5 children go hungry, but 1 in 3 children are obese
-Women are only paid $.72 on the dollar that men are
And on and on....

Yes. Yes they can.
But it doesn't mean anything until someone from the right jumps in and agrees with them.
Then the person being attacked is toast.
All because some weak republican wants to be liked and admired by the elite press.

Two things will end this whole rape standards on campus thing:
The first will be funny, when homosexuals start accusing each other of rape. You'll see a story or two in which each will credibly accuse the other of rape. Possibly in the same incident.
The second will not be so funny, when the civil rights crowd discovers that there's a racial disparity in accusations.
Do you have to be a rocket surgeon to realize that this policy is going to have a lot of black and Hispanic students tossed out of college based on false accusations by women and prosecuted by unqualified administrators?
Also, I'm told that lawyers are "guardians of our rights" despite all evidence to the contrary. Harvard Law settled? Big surprise. What did our Second Estate get for their settlement?

Colleges have to comply with Obama's diktat about college rape. Because
they are completely beholden to student loan money that was taken over
by the government.

Which speech was this?
Posted by: AmishDude
According to Roll Call, Scalise said he shared many of Duke's "conservative" beliefs, but then argued that the prominent white nationalist was unelectable.
"The novelty of David Duke has worn off," Scalise said. "The voters in this district are smart enough to realize that they need to get behind someone who not only believes in the issues they care about, but also can get elected. Duke has proven that he can't get elected, and that's the first and most important thing."

That's from the Roll Call interview. I believe I 'quested up quotes of him saying the same thing in other public statements around the same time. And should have left off the "later".

yup that has been the case for a while now.
it's just a handout to the low-earnings-potential degrees (i.e. all the ones that end with "Studies"). combine the loan forgiveness program with the income-based repayment program and all a person has to do is work for the government for 10 years after graduation, pay almost nothing on their loans in the meantime, and have the balance "forgiven" (i.e. paid for by taxpayers)
and then others see this and say "hey that's a sweet deal, I'm totally gonna do that too"
