With an governor who does not know US history and a Senator Graham who is more than mildly delusional, I am getting worried about the people of South Carolina.

The only positive is some of these good southern people will come to realize the GOPE doesn’t care about them. Not to donate to the RNC or help the RNC,etc.

Dittos. I don’t think it can be blamed on the Yankee immigrants.

Wasn’t it the Democrats who put it there? WTF is Haley’s head? Pubbies ALWAYS miss golden opportunities.

So it begins, Revisionist History. Sorry can’t support Haley in anything in the future. Please read your history, may I suggest Henry Steel Commanger’s books on the Civil War.

Political PC BS grandstanders. No politicians stand up and tells the truth anymore. They’re more worried about getting donations than doing the right thing.

Well, it’s good to know all our problems are solved now.

The world is simple when you’re a moron.

Rejecting Lee Bright to keep Lyndsay Graham convinced me that SC isn’t conservative country anymore.

I read a few weeks ago that she spends more time outside of SC than in the state. Primary voters in SC are nearly always wrong.

Well, it was the flag put their by DixieDemocrats. And they really hated the Republicans in their state. So I guess it was right for such people to put their flag up when they regained control of the South after Reconstruction when they made Black Codes the law of the South.

Me too. Up until now the muddle-minded Nikki Haley had no problem with the flag. Now suddenly, she all but accuses the flag of causing the tragic murders. She is repeating what the left is dictating. I believe she has a deep contempt for our history. I find something about her very disturbing, including her gloating about removing the flag. Above all, she is advancing the agenda of the left. Where will it stop?

"First they came for a Confederate battle flag, then . . ."

Nikki Haley should never have been SC governor.

With an governor who does not know US history

What does she not know about U.S. history?

South Carolina made clear in their declaration of succession that they were leaving because the Republicans were hostile to slavery and sought to abolish it.

It seems perverse that people think the GOP should now celebrate the Confederacy. It was not a noble enterprise.

I'd rather celebrate the principles of limited government and individual freedoms with a flag from the American Revolution than the flag of a government created to deny equal rights to a portion of mankind.

With the world falling apart, terrorism, murders, abortion, economy, constitution being trampled on, all our elected officials can do is worry about a flag?? Utterly hopeless.

The flag didn’t go up in 1962 but in the 2000 compromise at it’s last location. It’s removal today proves that giving in to leftists gets you nothing. At least they stopped the flag before it kills again.

BTW, if anyone thinks this will appease the permanently outraged crowd then they’re a moron.
