Actually
Jan 2, 2015 11:50PM PST

The head of the EAUnity and Rights Organization has publicly come out and said Scalise never spoke at their 'meeting'....he actually spoke at another group's get together two hours before the EAURO met. Since it was so long ago, Scalise knew it was at that same location and was confused over which group he spoke to when he 'apologized' for speaking at the EAURO.

The head of the EAUnity and Rights Organization has publicly come out and said Scalise never spoke at their 'meeting'.

He/She did?

IF you're referring to David Duke, all he said was

Back Steve Scalise, or I'll name names That's not saying he never spoke...it's saying stop talking about it or he'll name other Republicans that attended meetings.

For some reason I can't find the name of the "head of the EAUnity and Rights Organization" Could you provide a link showing who this person is and where they make the statement you claim?

All I can find is

In 2006 the group's ex-leader in Idaho Stan Hess.... He served as president of the organization's California chapter prior to moving to North Idaho in 2003.".[5]

EX-LEADER? Who is the head/leader?

David Duke? Is he the leader?

This David Duke?

I see Kenny got the "Toni H promotion"
Jan 3, 2015 11:33PM PST

He's an 'advisor", NOT "The head of the EAUnity and Rights Organization has publicly come out and said Scalise never spoke at their 'meeting'.

AND I read that story before...I said to myself...Surely she doesn't consider an "advisor" to be "the head of an organization" does she?

It appears she does.

Nitpick but not deny he said it?

Most of BO's 'advisors' are considered to be 'heads' of SOMETHING, JP....do you deny THEIR credibility as well? If not, then why have advisors of ANY kind?

I knew I would get the response from you I got......because it's typical of you to find something to nitpick at. Scabs must be your pasttime..........

Still haven't denied the advisor's statement though
Jan 4, 2015 2:58AM PST

Even though, like other liberals, you attempted to keep the Scalise accusation going....even AFTER you admit you saw the same article absolving him as I found. Liberals don't know how to REtract.......they only DIStract with 'nitpicking'.

EOD

Said the person that would NOT REtract her statement that it wasn't "the leader" but an "adviser" that made the statement.

Does that mean you're a Liberal now?

You have NO comment that Duke threatened to name names linking BOTH parties to having meetings with him?

Do you think one of those just might have been Scalise?

You just take as gospel what advisers say and not what leaders say?

You keep pickin', I'll keep grinnin'
