The Senate majority leader told reporters Tuesday that the memorial belongs in a museum, not the statehouse.
Confederate Lives Matter.
Let’s dig up Robert E. Lee... and deport him.
Not near as fast as politicians adapt their public spaces to political correctness, or whatever Mao called it. I personally don't care what the government does with its own artifacts.
GOP trying to out-left the left now
That time last year. It didn't happen.
They are attacking everything in VA now. They want to use their election fraud attorney general here in VA I take it. Swell people. Hopefully the yun into another stonewall, and lose this time.
Here we go...next? Stone Mountain, Georgia.
Dear Lord, please stop the insanity.
I don't much care one way or another where they put the statue but I care a lot about the elitists deciding every detail about what people are free to do in their own State, County, Town, or even their own Home.
Enough is enough, anyone who doesn't like the statue can stay away from the Capitol or just move out of Kentucky.
What really, really, ticks me off is that a couple of people I talke with locally who claim they're libertarians are on the bandwagon for shedding the Confederate flag in States, not selling items with the Confederate flag on them, and removing statues like this one.
That's as bad as Queen Barry claiming to be Christian.
You could be right. The left has got the bandwagon going and the GOP is its usual cowardly craven self. Obama is delivering the pastor's eulogy on Friday. I can see a huge national wave for national gun restrictions and outright confiscation. Will the GOP stand its ground and stop any anti-Second Amendment legislation or not? I don't want my future to be based on Boehner's and McConnell's courage or collaboration with Obama.
Agreed. This is a lead up to something much bigger. The fact that the Republicans are in on it signals to me that something much bigger than we understand is at play.
Say, Mitch, tell us voters who p a id you and how much to betray us regarding TPA and just about everything else since Republicans took over the Senate.
I guess the next thing they will call for is the end to Civil War reenactments.
What, the politicians want to do it for real again? Idiots.
Just wait til you see what happens to Conservatism once this nightmare train really gets rolling. Holy holy hell. The Dims of course, but the GOPe now sees this as there chance to get rid of us and distance themselves from us.
Here we go in the hand basket.
Have you seen Stone Mountain> The carving on the mountain?
Jeff Davis, Robert Lee and Stonewall Jackson..and when they do the laser light show at night, The play the Elvis rendition of Dixie and the Battle flag is superimposed across the carvings.
We aslo have Kennesaw Mountain.
This $hit won’t fly here.
Yes, and in Kentucky the “Emancipation Proclamation” did not free any slaves. It took the ratification of the 13th Amendment.
Lose the turtle.
How about we just lose Mitch McConnell??
Mitch. Do America a favor and “lose your job”. Or just quit!
