All in all, I’m sure Scalise, the RNC, the good folks at Heritage and AEI, all those nice people at White Folks News, and, of course, the folks back home in Loseranna who’re responsible for arranging to send Scalise to Washington District of Mostly Blah Cleaners, General Maintenance Workers, Police and Sanitation “engineers” in the first place, think this roll-out’s going just fine and dandy and all the noisy attention about “white supremacists” and “the KKK” and “David Duke” will inevitably head down to and then simmer for the remainder of the Union’s history at the same temperature as the rest of the House GOP Caucus.

I wonder where the Republicans are who used to criticize racism? Are they disappearing? Are their words simply not being reported? Or maybe decent Republicans are just not good at selling Cialis?

I’m still trying to understand why Donald Trump wasn’t laughed out of the room when he made racism a cornerstone of his campaign for the 2012 election. Everyone knows he’s an idiot. Why did the national press have such a hard time pointing out his idiocy? They simply turned him into the story of the moment. Fox viewers loved it. Everybody else was left scratching their heads.

If the media keeps picking on Scalise, repubs will be turning him into some kind of freakin’ hero. Just wait.

The Iowa Cubs team is owned by Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Michael Gartner. Several members of staff are also recovering journalists :wink: The boss didn’t want to catch the EUROs (inevitably) saying something stupid, else he’d be duty bound to tell it, and the EUROs would have to reply by sending some I-Cubs back to their Maker.

The general manager of the Zephyrs, Dan Rajkowski, told the newspaper that the EURO meeting was just one of several reasons the Iowa team’s accommodations were changed.

Sure the EURO meeting was just one of several reasons, but it was THE BEST ONE.
