Exactly the way he did. It was a compromise and legal.

So I wouldn't say that the compromise is an indication of support for the Confederate flag. At best I'm sure he felt there were far more important concerns to deal with.

Nope. most of us support Cruz...

You can’t be 100% Conservative or agree with everything, but Walker, etc, prove that they are more establishment than they let on.

I could care less. In fact, he is from the North like I am so we don’t have the same love for a lost war. Sorry but I think Walker is right on this. How about we put up the American Flag....ever think about that? Or would you rather just put up the Confederate Flag all over America. I hear that people still hold on to confederate money thinking it will be our main currency someday....lol. So silly.

Well see. I think you are wrong. Like 5 percent care about the South flag. It is over. Get over it. Walker is smart enough to know it is a dumb fight. It was over in the 1800’s actually. Walker will be our nominee....I FIRMLY believe that.

Jim, the present location of the flag WAS the compromise. The Left got the flag removed from atop of the Capital dome in 2000.
It’s never enough with Leftists. Don’t ever cave in to these bastards.

The only reason this issue is on the news is to take pot shots at Conservatives. Ignore all statements.

Why not defer that decision to the people of SC?

But he did not vote NO...and he could have, therefore supporting the compromise.

Voting no could have defeated the compromise and left the flag where it was. He no doubt saw it as the lesser of two evils.

“Walker will be our nominee....I FIRMLY believe that.”

If you are right which I seriously doubt then either Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders will be the next President of the United States. Mitt Walker will never win a general election.

As far as the Confederate Flag goes if you are not of Southern heritage we don’t care what you think so STFU which is my advice for Walker. He has peaked. Look for him to die out soon. The sooner the better.

You really are in the tank for Walker, aren’t you Naps?

Have you been to SC? Have you seen ONLY the Confederate flags flying over buildings in the South? Are you that ignorant?

Here is your problem...you decided to stick with a candidate who you think is Conservative. But, the more he talks and the more people he names to his team, the more you realize he is GOP-e.

BTW, look at History and figure out WHY the South loves the flag...both of them.

Of course I have been to South Carolina loads of times and never see the flag waving around. Most don’t have it in their yards or anything. I have friends near Columbia, SC and some on the coast so I have been all through South Carolina. As i stated many times, you are free to support a candidate who can talk all day long but doesn’t accomplish anything, I mean the Democrats did so with Obama and it appears many hear are following the Democrats lead or you can use your brain and support someone who actually gets the job done in a conservative manner who at times doesn’t talk the issues you like.....big deal. I want a guy who leads as a conservative in action, not a guy who talks conservative but doesn’t get a thing done. Your choice of course. But yes how GOP-e of a guy taking away illegals tuition assistance, limits killing babies, getting rid of unions, slashing the state budget. Oh the poor RINO. You crack me up.

What a goon. He hasn’t even announced yet and is at the top of the polls. You are one delusional chick.
