the STARS & BARS is the NEW flag of GA. it is VERY SIMILAR to the battleflag designed FIRST for GA troops in 1861 by William Porcher Miles. 5 feet away, you cannot tell his flag &n the one designed by the PC-GA legislature apart.
the REAL Georgia FLAG (post 1956) is the Confederate BATTLEFLAG design, which was ALSO designed by William Porcher Miles in 1861 & was carried HONORABLY into battle by GA troops.
of course, the average legislator is TOO IGNORANT of their state's history to know such a TRUTH.

Good Lord. If we can't escape the PC gestapo goon squad on Free Republic, where can we escape it? Surely whoever suggested this change could not be serious, and was just trying to provoke a good argument. If they were serious, then I suggest they try moveon.org. There is a lot of good PC stuff over there, and I'm sure their little PC suggestions will be welcomed. I have no doubt that the good folks at FR will have the courage to stand up to the tyrannical forces of PC. Unlike the scalawag politicians.
Keep the '56 flag.
