House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA) claimed on Tuesday that Republicans “never disrespected” the office of the President when Barack Obama was in charge.
To be clear, Steve, you’re saying that just because Prez. Hatespeech was a private citizen in 2011, his birther defamation doesn’t count against Party-o-Lincoln?
Cuz if that’s your argument, you still have to explain Boehner saying “none of my business” about the GOP birther racists.
Was it not disrespect when Senate GOP refused to give Merrick Garland a hearing? Disrespecting Obama, those who elected him, and an important, longstanding norm in the Senate?
Except for that time the ass screeched “you lie” during a SOTU. And the time McConnell swore on the shells of all his turtle ancestors that he would do nothing but block everything Obama would ever try to do. And there are a few thousand more times. But other than that…
“Barack Obama, he just sits out. He sits back; he criticizes everybody. He’s got his professorial attitude, real condescending, as if he’s got all the answers.”
“Barack Obama destroyed the middle class.”
Steve Scalise also bragged that he is “David Duke without all the baggage.”
