Fricken’ Red Guard is operating in overdrive.
The national insanity continues unabated.
Delaney doesn’t even live in the district he represents. He spent millions, hired college kids to walk the district, and BARELY beat Dan Bongino in a reliably Rat district.
Red Guard is right. I used to wonder what mindset was behind such madness in other countries. Now I see it on display right here—and celebrated in the evening news.
It’s past time.
Lee is a part of the history of the United States. This is nuts.
I think we ought to round up a bunch of these numskulls and tie them up in all the Civil War cemeteries at night and let all them ghosts have their way with them.
Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant owned slaves.
Confederate Gen Robert Lee, did not own slaves.
No more desecration of monuments. The lunatic liberals will destroy at a record pace with momentum behind them.
It’s revisionist history you would expect from totalitarians.
It’s right out of Orwell..
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered.
And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped.
Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right....George Orwell, “1984””
Article says that Mr. Chaney, former owner of the property, had to fight the local Historic District Commission to get permission for the statue.
I hope that spurred him to put a restriction in the deed when he sold the property: Keep the statue in place in perpetuity ... or lose the land.
They think this will get them votes.
The Ctrl-Left disgusts me.
Brig. Gen. George B. Anderson, Brig. Gen. Lawrence O’Brian Branch, and Brig. Gen. William E. Starke (CSA) died in that battle. Maj. Gen. Joseph K. F. Mansfield, Maj. Gen. Israel B. Richardson, and Brig. Gen. Isaac P. Rodman (USA) also died in that battle. Six more generals on each side were wounded in the battle. It was, in my opinion, a great example of Generals McClellan and Robert E. Lee being themselves. It’s a great way to learn our history.
I wish more on the hateful Left would study our (first) Civil War in detail, not just to the level of “slavery was bad” but to the level of “this is the price we all pay when extremists divide the country”. Remove the human interest and history becomes a list of dates to memorize and vacuous cliches that everyone already believes, but divorced from any reason to care.
Yeah, well, I want a million dollars.
The black racists think they have whitey on the run, Obama started all of this.
Oh, they do. Yes, they do.
Straight to the polls.
There are 700 statues in 30 states. If they remove legally or illegally one a day they might be FINISHED by the election 2018.
And I do mean finished.
