Some of them arrived early and sat in on a speech he was making to a totally different group.
"But he did speak to them."
No, he was actually speaking to a different group. They were just there.
But hey. If you're hell-bent on smearing the guy, you could say something like, "neo-Nazis listened to a speech given by Scalise". Misleading, but factually correct.
Doesn’t fly, offwhite.
The event for Scalise was arranged by Kenny Knight, his friend and neighbor, and also the neo-Nazi organizer for David Duke.
So, Knight has Scalise at the same building, a few doors down, the same day, 2.5 hours apart, some of the Nazis in attendance, and a donation from Knight of a thousand bucks.
So, if communist Bill Ayers arranges for Barack Obama to speak at the Hilton in your town, the Young Communist Brigade is in a different room 2 hours later, but some of the Communists are on hand and attend Obama’s speech, and then he gets an Ayers donation, are you going to tell me that Obama had no idea the communists would be there? Will you tell me this was not planned this way so Obama could deny meeting his communists....that it was all an accident?
