Nancy Pelosi: Federal Confederate Flag Ban ‘Is About Our Morals’
Breitbart ^ | 10 Jul 2015 | by AWR Hawkins

Posted on 07/11/2015 8:42:32 AM PDT by Cheerio

During a July 9 discussion on a spending bill, Democrat members of the House—led by House Minority Leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)—began pushing a vote to ban all "Confederate symbols from the Capitol." This was a continuation of a push that began Tuesday, wherein Democrats sought to ban Confederate flags from all federal cemeteries.

On Thursday, Pelosi supported such bans as necessary, saying it "is about our morals."

According to Politico, on Tuesday, Democrats not only pushed to ban the flag from federal cemeteries, but also “to stop the U.S. Park Service from doing business with enterprises that sell the flags.” Rep. Jared Huffman (D-CA)said, “This House now has an opportunity to add its voice to end the promotion of the cruel, racist legacy of the Confederacy.”

No Nazi, your participation in the CBF flap is about burying your dirty laundry.

Is there anything the federal government cannot make a law about? So much for limited government.

They’re trying to whitewash their party’s racist legacy. That’s what all this is about. Playing the race card and hustling people of color to vote for them by implying that all the racists reside in the Republican Party. It’s as simple as that.

Maybe the south needs sanctuary cities for the rebel flag.

Shut up Nancy. Your 60s Marxist hippy BS has grown old. People are tired of hearing it.

Morals? Lord have mercy. Anyone who claims your morals say a lot about them.

Kon-sty-two-shun?

We don’t do Kon-sty-two-shun here.
It’s racist, sexist and homophobic.

Now go pay your taxes, your government is broke.

No thanks 9% Nancy - YOU need to take full responsibility for YOUR Democrat party that put that flag on the SC statehouse in ‘62. Once you do that we’ll talk about forgiving you and your racist political party.

Nancy, if you had any morals, you wouldn’t be in the Democrat Party.

I didn’t know pussy Pelosi had morals. There’s an article floating around about the Civil war and the flag we see today, was flown from slave ships, not from the southern states.

I was born in Wisconsin, but have lived in Virginia for almost 40 years. I have never had any inclination to have a confederate flag.
I have ordered three.
One is a battle flag of the Army of Northern Virgina (the one most people know)
One is Bonny Blue
One is the first flag of the Confederacy. (stars and bars)

I will fly them all the same as I fly my Gadsden flag, as a symbol of resistance to tyranny.

The second amendment is there to protect out morals, Nancy.
They really want it now but, let’s wait and see if they steal this next election then it’s Katy, bar the door.
