So:

King said awful supremacist sh!t

Ryan sez he didn't mean it

King sez, no, I DID mean it ...

Ryan, your next denial of reality?

[gratuitous]

1. The ball's in your court, Mr. Speaker

Are you going to confront Rep. King for his racist bile, or will you just let it slide with a nod and a wink? Because King's words become your words if you don't oppose them.

2. Keep defending these assholes Ryan. They aren't defending you.

You were caught on tape and President Bannon is coming after you next.

3. But King "misspoke" only TWICE. On separate days.

[Bettie]

4. By "misspoke" you mean

he spoke the truth of what his party believes and your racism is usually a tiny bit more subtle? (Not much more subtle, mind you, but not quite as 'out there').

5. Translation: King said plainly the things we, the GOP, like to use code words for instead.

6. jppaverage:No he didn't misspeak

king meant every word of what he said. He's a dirty bastard and brings shame to not only Iowa, but the USA as well.

7. And King has been "misspeaking" the same racist shit for 30 years...

or is it 50?

8. no paulie, king spoke his racist mind and then doubled down on it.

9. He only said what the GOP's racist base is thinking!
