Actually the Suit did criticize it and said something to the effect it shouldn't be shown anywhere. I suppose he wouldn't be welcome at my house as the only flag in front of my house
is the
Stars and Bars. Number two, I won't vote for a candidate if they come out against the flag of
my ancestors (even though the gentleman did not have the Stars and Bars on his wall as Anderson stated). Indifferent is one thing. Negativity to a symbol of which I am proud another. Three, it matters who he supports? There is a deeper underlying meaning to that flag and that is a recognition of the First Republic (although I realize many Republicans don't much care for a nation of separate and sovereign states as evidenced by the socon desire to legislate morality at the national level)
Much of your post I agree. I don't remember any Flag in history raising such a discussion. It is PC run-amok that wants apology for family's that believe in State's Rights. That Flag represents how a campaign of media lies changes history. I have 4 papers of the NY Times circa '62, '63 and the reporting is straight up. The history of our Country is vibrant and controversial. I was flamed tonite for defending the display of the flag.

The guy who asked the question had both the battle flag and the stars and bars on his wall.
I thought Fred's answer was OK, but Mitt's was insulting to anyone with Confederate ancestors.
