If that bothers some of the anti-flaggers, then good. Maybe it will make them think or shame them into action.

I clicked on ALL the names of the people on this thread that voiced an opinion.

Of those who have pride enough in their state to fly the flag of Georgia, the breakdown is as follows:

Those in favor of the current flag:

Little ray
Condiarmy
Republican Red
Sprite518
deaconjim
jakkknife
tatze
lugsoul
Juana la Loca
higgmeister
groanup
amelia
eddie willers
.

Those in favor of the 1956 flag:

politicalmom


That's 13-1 of Georgians (who expressed an opinion) in favor of the new flag.

Now don't you feel just a little bit silly?

Well, FreeRepublic is not exactly a radical forum. It is a forum largely of "mainstream conservatives" and Republicans. I am not surprised by your numbers at all. If they were a little more inclined to fight the powers that be instead of acting like sheep, then they wouldn't be on FreeRepublic now would they. (I consider myself a missionary of real conservatism here. My fellow real conservatives in other venues, chastise me frequently for bothering to waste my time with you guys. I disagree. No one is beyond redemption.)

So you have established that wimpy conservative mainstreamers favor the current flag. That is what I have been saying. That the gumption to fight for the '56 flag despite naysayers like yourself is indicative of more deeply help conservative convictions.

Thanks for making my point.

No, I do not feel silly. I feel sad and more convinced than ever that I have a lot of work to do.

Uh...no.

I never said I was in favor of the 1956 flag.

I am in favor of a VOTE on all choices.

I know of at least three more FReepers that didn't reply to this thread, that feel the same as the other thirteen of us that did reply. I think that even if the flagnuts got the vote that they want, they would lose, and then still whine about it. Just my opinion, I welcome yours.

Make that 2 for the '56 flag.
