Chiming in on the recent issues ailing Rep. Steve Scalise Tuesday night, columnist Charles Krauthammer lashed out at the media’s “double standard,” saying Scalise’s association to David Duke and President Obama’s history with Rev. Jeremiah Wright “aren’t even comparable.” (RELATED: Steve Scalise Regrets Speech To David Duke Group: ‘It Was A Mistake I Regret’)

Krauthammer told “Special Report” guest host Ed Henry that “Obama became didn’t just wander into Jeremiah Wright’s church one time,” but rather that “he sat in it for 22 years as the man, who is a racist, raved about America and about 9/11 being chickens coming home.”

The conservative commentator added that while it’s “implausible” that Scalise didn’t know who Duke or his group were, there is no “shred of evidence” that anything resembling “racism, hostility, or “ill will” has happened in the 12 intervening years.
