A full-fledged cultural cleansing of the Southern states is underway as lawmakers debate whether to remove Confederate flags and rename schools and parks named after Confederate war heroes.
There are also discussions in Washington, D.C. about removing Confederate-related statues from the U.S. Capitol including a statue of Jefferson Davis, the former president of the Confederacy.
Its something to think about, Sen. Harry Reid told reporters.
Republicans, meanwhile, are leading the charge in South Carolina and Mississippi to remove the Confederate flag called a symbol of hate and racism.
Wal-Mart jumped on the band wagon, too announcing they will remove all Confederate merchandise from its stores. EBay announced they will no longer sell Confederate flags or any other memorabilia.
Has the Department of Homeland Security classified the Sons and Daughters of the Confederacy as right-wing hate groups, yet?
Meanwhile, there are dozens of reports from around the southeast of lawmakers hoping to rename parks and schools and streets that were originally named in honor of Confederates.
*Tennessee lawmakers are demanding that a bust of Nathan Bedford Forrest be removed from the statehouse;
*Baltimore lawmakers want to rename Robert E. Lee Park;
*Dallas lawmakers are considering demands to rename Stonewall Jackson Elementary School;
*St. Louis lawmakers are debating over the future of a confederate statue in a city park;
*Commissioners in Hillsborough, North Carolina are debating whether to remove the words Confederate Memorial from a Confederate memorial.
It wont be too long before they start renaming cities and towns and counties named after Confederates. And I reckon its only a matter of time before they bulldoze the Confederate grave yards and war memorials too.
Maybe we can just pretend the Civil War never happened.

This is not about parties
The GOP are feckless
Obama doesn’t have to do anything
Lincoln was magnanimous to my defeated ancestry
The radical Republicans were damn sure not
Compare both parties from 1861 on and except for Reagan they both are turdwash
Their mascots could govern better
It’s not
Who’s awake
Jim Webb
Jeff sessions
Miss lt governor
Michael berry
To a degree Mark levin...rush even O’Reilly
It’s a short list
My heritage
Southern since Jamestown and Christian
Is simply the lowest hanging fruit
You are correct
Larry Klayman was right today describing this as an Alinsky red diaper baby purge to eventually destroy all of traditional American history as we know it
And our leaders are collaborating with our foes
They are feckless Kapos
wish the sentiments were my own - I read them on twitter
The purge is being cheered on and maybe even led by ‘Big Tent’ Republicans, the sort who like to make common cause with their friends on the Left but who can always find a problem with people to their right. Give a listen to Hugh Hewitt or Michael Medved and you’ll get the idea. They may be in for a surprise come election time when the targets of their purge leave the tent entirely.
tell me how doing away with southern heritage will solve anything?
It doesn’t
It’s a way for progressives to exert power over social conservatisms most resolute and perhaps strongest electorate
And initiates collaboration from white guilt GOPe
And its lowest hanging least defended fruit in the minority grievance battle to destroy our complete history which they see as white privilege racism
I would give my left nut for an honest appraisal of all race stuff
Like why some succeed more than others
Not meaning to bicker but why ask me
I though I was considered our worst south offender since Stand left
I guess I was only looking on the surface...thanks
