It's a given that Obama wants to tear down all memorials to the Confederacy. What angers me a lot more is how many conservatives are willing to serve as his dupes by repeating the Left's talking points about the Civil War and the Confederacy (which they hide with the fig leaf of "Confederates were Democrats," not recognizing what an anachronism it is to project today's party politics onto the political divides of 150+ years ago).

Conservative Republicans who join the Left's chorus of hate against the Confederacy don't seem to realize that the Confederate flag is just the first an easiest target for these people. Obama and his minions would be just as happy tearing down the American flag as the Confederate Flag, and just as happy tearing down statues of George Washington as they are tearing down statues of Lee or Davis. They just can't - yet.

Excellent point and very true.
