Hello, Nation! I'm Veronica and this is The Elephant in the Room, indubitably the most unsmiling political blog this side of the International Date Line.
In yet another case of liberal tyranny, the liberal media is complaining ceaselessly about Steve Scalise's ascension to House Majority Whip because he gave a speech in front of European-American Unity and Rights Organization (EURO) which was formed by David Duke (who just happens to be a former Ku Klux Klan leader).
It's absolutely ridiculous, folks, that the liberal media is waging this war against free speech! Why shouldn't a state legislator speak to hate group? It's not even like he actually hates anyone; as the GOP has been quick to point out, it's all good because he has a black friend in congress! Rep. Mia Love (R-Utah), the first black Republican woman ever to be elected to congress said "...he has been absolutely wonderful to work with."
Additionally, he said he didn't know EURO's white supremacist platform when he spoke for them. Don't those liberals know? When you speak in front of an organization, you don't know their platform! That's absolutely ridiculous! Public speaking is obviously not something for which you need to know your audience!
Who actually prepares for speeches? It's totally plausible that Scalise really had no idea what EURO stood for. I mean, David Duke said Scalise was "'a fine family man' with whom he often agrees." If a former Ku Klux Klan leader says he's a good guy, he must be! Who judges character by anything apart from statements by former Klan leaders? (I mean, liberals, apparently, but who else? Really?)
This whole thing is ridiculous, folks! Even if Scalise knew what he was doing, why should we expect our legislators to not be racist? Does the liberal media not know, like, the entirety of U.S. history? This country is unflinchingly racist! This isn't surprising in the least!
