Thank the Freepers who helped empower this with their demands we elect ‘lesser evil’. Next, Christian crosses will be removed.
I can’t understand why so many are upset in discovering that principle matters and that actions have consequences.

As a lifelong Yankee I don’t really have a dog in this fight. But I do think this is insensitive and disrespectful to the families of Confederate soldiers who may be buried in those cemeteries.

From the Sons of the Union Veterans of the Civil War: Our Position on the Confederate Battle Flag
GENERAL ORDER NO.26
SERIES 2014-2015
SONS OF UNION VETERANS OF THE CIVIL WAR
Display of the Confederate Battle Flag
By the authority vested in me as Commander-in-Chief of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, the National Constitution and Regulations, and National Policies, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1: Recently many individual Brothers, Camps, Departments and the National Organization have been contacted regarding the position of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War (SUVCW) on the display of the Confederate Battle Flag.
Section 2: The SUVCW already has an official position on file regarding this issue, as adopted by the 119th National Encampment. As the National Encampment is the supreme governing body of the SUVCW, and as no subsequent National Encampment has revisited this issue, the SUVCWs official position remains the same. Neither the Commander-in-Chief nor the Council of Administration has the authority to amend the position.
Section 3: For clarity, the official position of the SUVCW regarding the display of t he Confederate Battle Flag is included in this order, as follows:
RESOLUTION OF SUPPORT DISPLAY OF BATTLE FLAGS OF THE CONFEDERACY 119TH NATIONAL ENCAMPMENT OF THE SONS OF UNION VETERANS OF THE CIVIL WAR LANSING, MICHIGAN AUGUST 19, 2000

Why do these nonthinking, LIB asshats feel this is so important? Maybe it has to do with the fact that they are mentally disturbed.

Cowards, bandwagon jumpers and panderers, all of them.
To paraphrase somewhat,
I swear by my life, the one I love, that I will never vote for another incumbent.

Soon they will desecrate graves of our falling ancestral heroes, like this at Fredericksburg.
To: GIdget2004
Having solved all other problems, congress now turns to the vitally important issue of the confederate flag.

We were told in 2014 that we had to help Republicans win both Houses of Congress in order to stop Obama and the Democrats. Since they received control of both Houses of Congress we have seen Republicans either lay down and roll over for or actively assist the Democrats in implementing their agenda. I won't be voting to return Mike Turner in 2016. I will vote for Ted Cruz in 2016.

So don’t put US flags on their graves on US Memorial day.

So why did John Boehner not allow this?
To: GIdget2004

I just heard on WSB radio there will be a vote to rescind this regulation this afternoon 7/9). Apparently many Southern Reps got an earful last night.
The dems were said to be stunned. Heh-heh-heh!!!!
Time to make your voices heard, not just in the South but from anyone believing this flag issue is but another way to control the masses.
