Yesterday, Newsbusters<\/a> posted an article about the recent scandal involving House majority whip<\/a> Steve Scalise<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Drat! Foiled again!<\/strong><\/p>\n

That is going to be the feeling of much of the mainstream media which has been incessantly pushing the narrative about House majority whip Steve Scalise supposedly speaking at a David Duke<\/a> sponsored white supremacist event in 2002. It turns out that it never happened. Instead he spoke at a local neighborhood association<\/a>. And who discovered this vital information? A very unexpected source, the liberal Slate<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The mix-up had something to do with Representative Scalise speaking at a different event in a small conference room in the same hotel as the event in question was held.<\/p>\n

Kenny Knight, a longtime associate of David Duke, the former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan<\/a> explains the confusion:<\/p>\n

\u00a0Knight invited then\u2013state Rep. Scalise as well as a representative from the Jefferson Parish Sheriff\u2019s Office and a person from the American Red Cross<\/a> to speak to the civic association at the hotel. Knight said he thinks the Red Cross<\/a> speaker was from a local chapter but didn\u2019t remember specifically. He also said he didn\u2019t remember the names of either of the other speakers. The representative from the sheriff\u2019s department spoke to attendees about a neighborhood watch program, and the person from the Red Cross discussed CPR<\/a> techniques. Scalise also spoke.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0Whoops!<\/p>\n
