Was Sex Offending Lawmaker’s Party Affiliation Mentioned? Of COURSE, He’s a Republican!

Posted on October 31, 2007

Democrats never get “outed” as Democrats by the MSM if they are accused of crimes and corruption, but if they are Republicans… well, that party affiliation is rarely held back by that same media. Some may have scoffed at this claim that GOPers are always outed while Dems are always shielded, but here is so perfect an example of it that it almost seems that we wrote it ourselves as a Halloween joke. Today we have a case where the party affiliation of a Republican nearly leads the report of a legislator accused of a sex crime. Even more amusingly — or sadly as the case may be — our example here is written by the same AP reporter who failed to report the Democrat label in past stories. Nope, no bias here!

On October 4th, I had a previous piece displaying the “reporting” of one Chet Brokaw, Associated Press Writer, who gave us a little tale about a state Senator from South Dakota who is accused of sexually molesting a legislative Page. One tiny aspect of the facts of that particular story seemed to slip by old Chet Brokaw, Associated Press Writer and that would be that the accused legislator is a Democrat.

So, go ahead… ask. What would old Chet Brokaw, Associated Press Writer, do if he should be assigned a story where the eeeeevil sex offender was a Republican lawmaker? Come on, I know you are dying to ask.

Well, since you asked, here are the first two paragraphs of a recent piece by my man Chet Brokaw, Associated Press Writer:

PIERRE - A former state lawmaker will stand trial starting Tuesday on rape charges based on accusations that he molested two of his foster daughters under the pretense of helping them make thousands of dollars by selling their reproductive eggs.

The charges against former Rep. Ted A. Klaudt, R-Walker, mark the second time in a year that the South Dakota Legislature has been rocked by allegations of improper sexual conduct by a lawmaker. One of Klaudt’s alleged offenses occurred when a foster daughter was a page during a legislative session.

What is that you see there, in the second paragraph 9 words in? Gosh, why it’s a party affiliation. And what is the party again? (he asks expectantly)

“The charges against former Rep. Ted A. Klaudt, R-Walker…”

Could the accused lawmaker be a Republican from Walker, South Dakota? I think so… in fact, I KNOW so because our little pal Chet Brokaw, Associated Press Writer, made darn sure we’d learn that salient fact.

Say, did we ever mention that the Associated Press has a policy that party affiliation is only mentioned when it’s pertinent to a story?

Musta been waaaay pertinent this time but not in the other story, eh? Elsewise our buddy Chet Brokaw, Associated Press Writer, would never have bothered mentioning it this time, but not last time.

Right?

    Remember David Duke? High up KKK member who started the National Association for the Advancement of White People, Republican, elected to the Louisiana State House of Representatives in 1989

    In 1975, Duke sought a seat in the Louisiana Senate as a Democrat. In 1988, he ran in the Democratic Party primary for President of the United States. After a poor showing in the Democratic primaries, he appeared on many state ballots as the nominee of the Populist Party and received 47,047 votes in the 1988 general election.

    “In December 1988, he switched political affiliation from Democratic to Republican.

    Duke is a self-styled “white nationalist”, but his critics commonly refer to him as a white supremacist.

    Duke went on to study at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge and in 1970, he formed a White student group known as the White Youth Alliance, which was affiliated with the National Socialist White People’s Party. That same year, he became well-known for a demonstration in which he wore swastika regalia to protest William Kunstler’s appearance at Tulane University in New Orleans.

    Duke returned to LSU, graduating in 1974. He became famous on campus for wearing a Nazi uniform while picketing and holding parties on the anniversary of the birth of Adolf Hitler.[citation needed] The year of his graduation, he formed the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. He attracted attention for trying to remove the overtly racist terminology of the Klan and turn it into a “white nationalist” political force.[14] A follower of Duke, Thom Robb, changed the title of “Grand Wizard” to “National Director” and replaced the white robes of the Klan with business suits.

    Duke has expressed his support for Ernst Zündel, a prominent Holocaust denier, and has made a number of statements in support of Zündel and his Holocaust denial campaign. Currently, Duke expresses concern for the aging Zündel on his website calling him a “political prisoner” after Zündel was deported from Canada to Germany. Zündel is being held in a German prison on charges of inciting the masses to ethnic hatred.

    In 1995, Don Black and Chloê Hardin, Duke’s ex-wife, began a small bulletin board service or BBS by the name Stormfront. Today, Stormfront has become a premier online forum for neo-nazism, hate speech, racism, and antisemitism. Duke has an account on Stormfront which he uses to post articles from his own website, davidduke.com, as well as polling forum members for opinions and questions, in particular during his internet broadcasts.”

    The facts are; Duke is a racist, anti-semite, bigot, and imbecile of the first order. He is also an opportunist. Switching parties in an attempt to win, not out of any loyalty to a particular party but to his ideology alone.

    He is a RINO.

    Your attempt at portraying him as a “R-KKK”, “Republican” or “Conservative” is as pathetic as the left’s attempt at portraying Fred Phelps of Westboro fame, as a “republican” when the fact is he is a registered Democrat and always has been.

    Truth seems to be adverse to this sad little sites agenda.

    You know what you can do with your version of the truth! The same thing you can do with your version of “Atheism”. The fact is, you are anti-God and anti-Christ. People are not compassionate, vitriolic, mocking and threatened by that which they believe does not exist.
