Yeah I am happy with our Georgia state flag, but not the way it came about with the last demoncrat governor barnes meddling in things, a committee came up with that eyesore flag that came before it, it was a concession to liberals who want their stupid minions to believe that a flag with a 19th century emblem is somehow detrimental to their present day lives...

. . . a committee came up with that eyesore flag . . .

Actually, an Atlanta architect -- who should have known better than to (a) participate; and (b) draw up such a hideous thing -- designed that blue flag with all the junk on it. He's a friend of my parents, so I won't name his name. He's covered in enough shame already, without blazoning his name on FR . . . I hope he regrets getting involved with King Roy -- he should have known that anything Roy touched turns to &^%$%$#$.

I think it's funny as heck that people don't realize that the new GA flag is based on the Confederate First National, which was far more prevalent than the Confederate Battle Flag or Naval Ensign. Of course, the really old GA flag (very similar to the one in use now) was designed by an ex-Confederate Colonel as one in the eye for the Reconstructionists.
