Well, historically speaking, that's true.

I had not realized until recently the confederate flag at the S.C. Capitol was not a Civil War legacy but was put there in 1962 by Democrat segregationists. Pretty clear what their meaning was.

The real truth is forgotten, even by Rush, and that is the meaning behind the battle flag. And South Carolina was first in push back of Federal overreach into states rights. That overreach is happening again. It isn’t about racism or blacks vs whites, although many without the background of scholarly history lessons soon forget.

If they taught history honestly in our schools today these same people would be demanding the Democrap party be abolished. That Donkey symbol has been around since 1837, through slavery, through the Democraps fight to keep slavery legal, through their rejection of Civil rights and now their current socialist Holocaust against the black community which has killed more blacks than slavery ever did. I believe the estimate is half a million blacks killed by slavery. Well the Democrap engineered socialist holocaust reached that number in only 35 years and that’s not even counting the millions of black babies murdered, and all so rich white liberals can get elected.

I love this man .
H.K. Edgerton used to be the head of the NAACP in Asheville N.C. , until he saw the light .
Now he refers to the NAACP as “ the Klan with a tan” ...

God bless this good man

Grand Kleagle Robert Byrd was adoringly referred to as the "conscience of the Senate" by his democRAT colleagues.

What I see in the last hour is a cave in by Republican leaders to the emotions generated by the mass murder last week as if the Confederate flag were somehow responsible.

Reminds me of the emotional cave ins on Religious Freedom in March of this year by Republicans in Arkansas and Indiana.

Very convenient for Rush Limbaugh’s discussion to focus on Democrat connections to segregation and the flag.

Not all South Carolina segregationists remained Democrats, Strom Thurmond switched to the Republicans in 1964 and was welcomed by the likes of RIchard NixOn, whom Thurmond supported for President in 1968.

What will the next emotional wave Republicans cave into be about, gun ownership???????

Rush needs to have a talk with Walter E. Williams who has a Confederate flag on his desk and happens to be African American.

This is so stupid.

The Democrats TODAY are the antiwhite party. What Democrats long dead did once is irrelevant.

Perhaps, but it is part of the history of America. Leave it alone.

To those on the Left trying to make something of the Flag I Say this:

lets deal with the Individual who had Evil in his Heart and Stop Blaming inanimate Things! They have no Soul and they Make no Decisions of Good or Evil, But the Murder did make those Decisions!

Dems get 95% of AA vote, so flag hasn’t hurt them at all.

I hope pandering Haley get a backlash for pandering and gets her 1% extra AA vote but loses 30% of her GOP vote.

Turned out to be a Panda Rino
