If you take a good look around, the only major news outlet regularly offering its imprimatur to Nazis and Klansmen is the far-left CNN.

As long as liberals are such perfect thermometers of deplorableness, could they tell us how many Muslims are “deplorable”— specifically, what percentage are “sexist” or “homophobic”?

Talk radio host and author of “The Liberty Amendments,” Mark Levin, argued Representative Steve Scalise (R-LA) should resign on Monday. Levin said that while he doesn’t believe Scalise held the views of David Duke, or even knew he was speaking
The honorable resignation is a lost art in American politics. Most politicians are determined to cling to power, regardless of the cost to their reputation, their party’s standing, or their broader ideals.

Now, Scalise is supposed to be a bad guy because he may have come to our meeting he may not have come to our meeting or whatever,” David Duke, the former grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, said on his radio program on Friday. “He certainly did, like most Republicans in my state and elsewhere, and most Democrats in the South and certainly many around the country, he echoed a lot of my ideology and my policies–no question about it,” Duke added.
