"They took it off of the capitol and put it in a memorial - a perfect use."

If that is such a perfect use (and I agree that it is) then pray tell, why has the NAACP changed it position to now demand its removal from the memorial as well? I would venture to say it is because this is not an issue about being offended at all (and even if it were, so what?) It is about being a bully and keeping control over people, both black and white. It is about revising history. It is about making themselves to be somehow something other than what they actually are. And it is undoubtedly about money. I hear that extortion can be quite lucrative.

I don't know why they changed their position. I don't speak for them. I have no problem at all with the flag at a memorial where its obvious purpose is to memorialize the veterans of the CSA.

i was THERE when the negotiator for the naaLcp SIGNED the "permanent compromise" on re-locating the flag to the front of the statehouse.

when the naaLcp (& their LIBERAL/socialist/racebaiting allies in the north) discovered that they had LOST, rather than winning, they DISAVOWED the document they had signed less than 2 weeks before.

funny how it's OK for the liberals/haters/scalawags/naaLcp racebaiters to LIE, WHINE, COMPLAIN & CHEAT isn't it? did you hear anything about their LIES on TV, radio or in the "news"papers????

NO? i thought NOT!
