Thanks Jaysun.


When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wondered.
Honor the charge they made,
Honor the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred.

It's wonderful that so many of these flags still exist, the condition of many is almost appropriate.

btw, probably only about 1/4 of dixie's hero-martyrs attacked under the easily recognized "starry cross" Confederate Battle Flag.

there was NEVER an official policy of what battle flag that CSA units HAD to carry.

i've seen one AR (CSA) regimental flag that was made from a piece of ladies lingerie. it was PROBABLY made from a white & PINK silk & LACE underskirt from a wedding gown, which was then embroidered & appliqued with "patriotic symbols & sayings"! (units used whatever they HAD or could buy/make/get donated. the vast majority of CS units were too POOR to even buy food & clothing on a routine basis, much less money to buy fancy flags!)

Lib'rals love their "Programs"...Lib'rals love to TAX!!
Lib'rals, we give most our bread to...We won't ever git it back!!

But it's Right who's doin' the Chores!!
BigGuv'ment takes yer money...Leftists Corrupt Yer Souls!!
Lib'rals tax the shirt off yer back...and tell ya "You a selfish louse!!"

Lib'rals, they love JessieJay...Sharpton, they're UncleToms!!
American Left wants everything in the World...They're all TAKE and Never GIVE!!
Medyuh Whore'd...They're ALL Sissies...I can't stand 'em on TeeVee no mo'!!
Sometimes I venture over to CNN fer just a look...but I end up barfin' in the stall!!

White RATS, they're pretty funny...They think that 'Life's Soooo Sad!!'
Black Libs...they just wanna blame the damned Right!!
Self-reliance, they can't Stand!!
Chi-Com Spies are so subtle...They got Slick on his knees!!
