“We’ve become an embarrassing disgrace to all our forefathers who fought and built up this nation to the greatness it once attained, but now so willingly tosses away.”

That’s about as hard-hitting as anything I’ve read to describe where we’re at today. And accurate.

This is just not the end of the world.

You could have said that about every single day of the fall of the Roman Empire.

Frog, water, pot, boil.

Gutless wonders.

I wonder if Nikki understands that taking the flag down is not much removed from removing 2nd Amendment rights ....

Ironic that I'm listening to "Dixie" by Black Oak Arkansas as I read/type this.

[browniexyz]

We have statues of Confederate generals and people are calling for their removal....

[Andy'smom]

LOL! How did they respond?

[GailA]

No back bone, will be a 1 termer.

Now where does the darling of the conservatives Cruz stand is the big question? Since he’s not being the strong conservative and is voting for this horrendous pro trade bill, we need to keep track of what he says and does.

I’ve not made up my mind, nor will commit money to another RINO.

Farewell America!

The media is making this about a flag, instead of the real problems; mental health and the environment that produced the murderer.

The reason the Democrats want to squelch, hide, and delete the Confederate memories from America, is because the slavery part is EVIL DEMOCRAT HISTORY!

Thus, they want to destroy it, delete it, hide it, change it, ignore it, and BLAME REPUBLICANS for THEIR history!

That is the ONLY reason for Democrats wanting to get rid of Confederate history. Once it is written off to a museum, and lost memories, then they can REALLY skew the history and blame Republicans!

It will prove good for Haley only if she nails that flag with its Demorat history.

[CodeToad]

“The Confederacy ceased existence 150 years ago, but some people just can’t seem to want to let it go.

Yes, and people in “their own state” are now calling for the flag to be removed. So why is it any of your business?”

Seems you talk out of both sides of your mouth.

That's been precisely the point I've been trying to get across in my several posts in this thread. Conservatives ought to be unyielding and relentless in their educational crusade to cloak the DemonRAT party in the Confederate battle flag. In actuality, that flag is far more suited to 'RAT cesspools such as San Francisco, Detroit, Boston, Camden and other such places. As the photos in my previous posts clearly show, the Confederate battle flag was deployed over the years by an endless parade of 'RAT politicians. And here's another to add to that sordid collection.

Yet again, two 'RATs (Fritz Hollings and John F. Kennedy) proudly posing with the flag emblematic of their party.

In my rather earnest search efforts, I have yet to find an actual photo (not a liberal Photoshop hatchet job) of a true Conservative deploying that flag in the manner of 'RATs. Reagan? NEVER! Coolidge? NO! Palin? OF COURSE NOT! Jim Robinson? HERE'S THE FLAG HE EMBRACES AND DEFENDS!
