ORANGEBURG, S.C. — Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that South Carolina should remove the Confederate flag from its Statehouse grounds, in part because the nation should unite under one banner while at war.

When she co-governed Arkansas, what did she do to their Confederate flags?

[madison10]

Hillary should take care of her own problem...the one who can't keep his pants zipped.

[Phlap]

Hey Herevilself. Harry says Iraq "worst mistake". What say you?

[Miss Didi]

You asked for it (thanks to Mia T):

Sick & Tired

[mass55th]

She claims the nation should unite under one banner while at war, but then during war she has stabs the men and women in the back who fight that war.

[mass55th]

"Yeah. That'll help her campaign . . . . . especially in the south!"<

Makes you wonder what she finds wrong with the Confederate flag since she obviously has no problem serving in a Congress she claims is run "like a plantation."

[mass55th]

"When she co-governed Arkansas, what did she do to their Confederate flags?"

Hillary obviously had no problem with the state flag. The Arkansas flag has four stars inside a diamond. The top of the four stars in the center represents that Arkansas was a member of the Confederate States during the Civil War. The other three stars represent Spain, France and the United States, countries that had earlier ruled the land that includes Arkansas. Of course they'd honor France and Spain.

Wow. A democrat speaking out against the confederate flag. WOw. That must have taken real guts. Let's see her go down there and agree with Bill Cosby.

[Nephi]

Hillary's flag is the red one with the big hammer and sickle on it.

People should show up at her events waving those flags in her honor.

[GitmoSailor]

The things people will say just to keep their name in the Headlines.Bill and Hillary will keep this up weekly until the election in Nov 2008.Sick Sick Sick I tell you!!!...

"Many of you are well enough off that ... the tax cuts may have helped you," Sen. Clinton said. "We're saying that for America to get back on track, we're probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good."

The Democrats know what needs to be done. Again, we're working to try to push this agenda forward. The other day the oil companies reported the highest profits in the history of the world. (Laughter.) I want to take those profits and I want to put them into a strategic energy fund that will begin to find alternative smart energy, alternatives and technologies that will begin to actually move us toward the direction of independence! (Cheers, applause.)

South Carolinians should tell Mrs. Clinton they'll remove the flag when she removes the stain from Monicas' dress.

[Dick Vomer]

that's so cool....she'll lose south Carolina now...only 48 more till she joins other famous presidential candidates that got 1 state.

[goodnesswins]

YEP....people will be VERY SICK of HILLARY by 2008

[MissouriConservative]

I'm really never sure why Presidential candidates have to do this same dog and pony show every time an election comes up. South Carolina is not the nation and can do what it damn well pleases. Why on God's green earth do candidates have to travel down to South Carolina every 4 years and proclaim that the flag should come down? Is it required in some sort of federal law?

Any politician, democrat or republican, that has to have a say in this will NOT get my vote at any time. They need to keep their noses out of South Carolina's business....plain and simple.

[Goldie Lurks]

Breaking News:

Of course, Hillary would like to interfere with South Carolina's in state politics.

Hillary's political views lean towards socialism..Socialists do not believe in States Rights.

socialism-noun-any of various social systems based on shared or government ownership and administratrion of the means of production and distribution of goods.

Illustrations: Universal health care and shifting profits from oil companies..only to name a few things Hillary would like to accomplish.

[Rebeleye]

The Confederate flag will be next to the Confederate monument on the SC State House grounds when Clinton is no longer in office or thought about.

I'd like to see what's next on Her list of what She expects from all of us...I suspect what flags we choose to fly is just the least of what She intends to cure us all of....

[P8riot]

I see she's still wearing "ole crusty"
