I can understand Haley and the two SC Senators call for the removal, given the emotions involved in their state. But what really sealed the deal was that turd Reinse Priebus, Romney, and other national Republicans jumping in.
All they had to say was that the Governor of SC was handling the issue. And noted that the state Senator who was going to introduce a bill to remove the flag was going to do so in December, after everything had died down.
Nope, once the RNC jumped in, that opened the floodgates.
Freaking RINO Yankees.
