the new beginning of U.S. history. Destroy all that came before.

Exactly. That is what communists do. Destroy then rebuild from the ashes. It's all part of his "Fundamental Transformation of America".

What about changing the name of Washington and Lee? Think that would cause a stir. And how about digging up all the graves in Arlington......Lee’s home until confiscated.

It's time to eliminate Confederate soldiers in Civil War reenactments. We need to just put Meade's men against Hooker's etc. for all the battles. Sherman can fight against Thomas. Just fill in the blanks.

It's way past time to airbrush the Confederacy from our history. There never was a Confederacy. There. Fixed.

OK, here's another idea. The Americas had no indigenous people here when Columbus discovered the New World. There were no Indian Wars.

There. That's fixed. Isn't American history so much more pleasant when we just do away with all that strife?

Basta! Enough! The South should just secede from the Union.

No sense doing this piecemeal.

Bull, we keep the USA and force the blue states out.

That’s the problem I have with some of the attitude around here trying to rekindle the north vs south thing....when it’s liberal vs conservative thing.

The North Virginia Battle flag is just a soft target to tie around the necks of all conservatives.

And somehow becuase I wish to support the right to fly that flag I somehow have to endorse the right of the south to secede at the same time......sorry I’m not going to refight the civil war....

This is why the squishy moderates are caving in to the liberals on the display of the NV battle flag.

This is devide and conquer 101 and many from the south and north are falling for it.

As if we really have a dog in a 150 year old fight.

You want me to fully support your right to fly the flag....no problem....I think the desecration of graves and monuments is a hienous act of treason over a well settled matter they we as modern Americans cannot change or modify and have no business trying to undo.

Amends were made and new bonds as a larger nation formed.

But when you ask me to endorse an alternative outcome to the civil war I’m gonna say no bueno...

MLK also borrowed sections of his ‘I Have A Dream’ speech from one given at the 1952 Republican convention by Archibald Carey.

When will they demand the Richard C. Byrd U.S. courthouse in WV be renamed?

Not permanent bonds, as it turns out.

Kind of meaningless when most of the attacks on the south are coming from the south.

Since the anger and hurt feelings over *anything* Confederate were non-existent before Dylann Roof served up a handy excuse, it's quite clear that these attacks are not truly "local".

That’s not happening. Not unless the NAACP really wants CWII to kick off. LOL!
