You worry about me too much.

I'm asking a simple question, Why can't any of you confederate flag defenders condemn the people that did the most damage to the honor of the south, that of course being the Democrats?

Simple logic would say that if you are unwilling to condemn the democrats for what they are clearly guilty of, then you must have a reason that is so airtight it must be shared with anyone that is bothered by your lack of commitment restoring that honor, so why won't you condemn The democrats for dishonoring the south?

Actually, I'd have said instead that Andrew Jackson and his New Democratic Party of the 1828 election might well have been the root cause, or at least the example, for much of the political [if ever-pragmatic!] corruption to follow in the South. But there were certainly equal ills among the anti- monarchical Whigs opposing the man they called King Andrew the First.

Perhaps that's why Jackson's portrait is on the 20-dollar bill, the going price for a bought vote through much of the XIX and XX Century.
