When did I say that? We have an election coming up in 15 months and the more divisive, idiotic, stupid, jejune, juvenile, crazy, insane, unraveled, unpatriotic, un-American, and just plain mean the other side looks, only helps center-left candidates. Which is why I want you guys to keep waving your stars and bars. It basically puts a big ol' spotlight on the roaches.Liberals are worried about a 150 year old battle flag flying above a piece of concrete and don't seem to give a flying shit about Muslims shooting unarmed marines at a recruiting station.
You people really make me sick.
Who the fuck initiated the thread? It wasn't a liberal. Geaux4it is the OP. You calling her a liberal?
If you don't care, then why are your here?
Cons worry about how you libs are so hateful and divisive as to slander a whole sub culture of the US.
I wave the American Flag. I'm an American.
You wave the Confederate Flag. What are you?
I'll wait for an answer.
1. Yep. Hence the usefulness of manufactured fake outrage. By creating a massive hysteria over the simply flying of a regional flag, and constantly slandering the citizens of that subculture you divide Americans and marginalize a group that is a problem for your ideological agenda.
Nikki Haley was the first to say they should take down the flag. Scott Walker said he supported it. So did Lindsay Graham. So did BHO. Gee, who out of those 4 are you charging with being divisive? Just the black guy. I'm shocked
Racists waving the confederate flag at black guy
Guess that proves it is not a racist symbol
Germany doesn't have the 1st Amendment like we do.1. That's ridiculous.
2. YOu don't get jail time for having a swastika on your coffee cup. Ever hear of the First Amendment?
3. Thanks for the preview of where the left wants take this country.
1. I think a black person would rightfully find a Confederate Flag as offensive as a Jewish person would find a Swastika.
2> Germany bans the Swastika, and they are just fine. We need to, too.
3. You mean we want to put you racists and haters in your place? Works for me.
No, if someone goes to war over slavery instead of picking their own cotton, gets rolled up in 3 short years (I recalled hearing that something like 1/3 of the Union Army never saw battle), has their lands administered for something like 15 years afterword, tried to say it was about anything other than preservation of slavery (make me laugh), then pretends that it's about "heritage, not hate"...they deserve to be called what you just did...intellectually and morally deficient. The CSA added nothing to the world. They had plans to expand to the South and export their tiered striated culture to indigenous persons through the Caribbean.obama and you libs have been insulting them a lot over the past few months. why should they not let him know they are there and not appreciating the slander?
They should do whatever their little hearts and smaller brains tell them to do. It's a free country.
As one of grade school instructors told me (I'm sure she got it from somewhere else), "Better to have the world think you're an idiot than to show up on a workday, wave the flag of an easily defeated opponent in the victors' face and remove all doubt."
By all means, I wish all of you guys would wave that flag constantly.
"little hearts and small brains"?
Standard lib thought. If someone disagrees with you, it can only be because they are intellectual and/or morally deficient.
It was a worthless, fruitless, costly venture that divided the nation. But somehow, you guys keep insisting it was an honorable effort.
Amazing how loyal you guys became after getting your ass handed to you.The South has been a loyal part of the this country for over 150 years. Attacking them like this serves no purpose other than to divide US.
And claiming the South was easily defeated just shows how completely ignorant you are of history.
Yeah, sure. Whatever you little heart and mind says.
American Civil War - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
"The American Civil War was one of the earliest true industrial wars. Railroads, the telegraph, steamships, and mass-produced weapons were employed extensively. The mobilization of civilian factories, mines, shipyards, banks, transportation and food supplies all foreshadowed the impact of industrialization in World War I. It remains the deadliest war in American history, resulting in the deaths of an estimated 750,000 soldiers and an undetermined number of civilian casualties.[N 2] One estimate of the death toll is that ten percent of all Northern males 20–45 years old, and 30 percent of all Southern white males aged 18–40 died.[7]"
3 short years?
And you have the nerve to call other "intellectually deficient"?
How incredibly wrong, how utterly ridiculous your claim was, does undermine the rest of your post.
You are being blinded by your regional bigotry and hate.
The most respected voice on the Civil War was (southerner) Shelby Foote. You would do well to familiarize yourself with the works of Mr. Foote.
Specifically:
Mr. Foote, like many who take a romanticized view of the gallant Confederates fighting hopelessly against long odds, cast the Confederate bid for independence as doomed from the start. “I think that the North fought that war with one hand behind its back,” said Foote. If the Confederacy ever had come close to winning on the battlefield, “the North simply would have brought that other arm out from behind its back. I don’t think the South ever had a chance to win that war.”
You can read more here:
Shelby Foote and the North s Other Arm Keith Harris History
The author of the website actually (and foolishly) agrees with you so feel free to bring that up. Misery loves company after all.
Anyway,
Much like today, most Southerners were poor both in terms of monetary means and education. The wealthy plantation owners were all too happy to conscript them into service and send them into the meat grinder to ensure their cheap labor supply.
What makes you say that it's a socialist flag?BTW, it is perfectly legal to fly a Nazi flag here in the land of the free.wow. just wow.
what should the punishment be for having a coffee cup with a confederate flag on it? 6 months in prison?
Works for me. The Confederate Flag should be treated like a Swastika flag.
BTW, it is perfectly legal to fly a Nazi flag here in the land of the free.
well what would you expect
that flag is a socialist flag after all
--LOL
I love how the dividers try to blame their divisive behavior on the President.Welcome to America

A few protesters waving large Confederate battle flags greeted President Obama as he arrived at his hotel in Oklahoma City on Wednesday.
Local media reported that Confederate flag supporters also staged an event at an earlier Obama stop in Durant, Okla.
Obama has criticized the flag as a symbol of hate and applauded South Carolina's decision to remove it from the State House grounds after nine African Americans were killed at a church in Charleston.

there is not a area left that the prezbo

False on both counts.Liberals are worried about a 150 year old battle flag flying above a piece of concrete and don't seem to give a flying shit about Muslims shooting unarmed marines at a recruiting station.

You want to discuss how Joe wants to lock up his fellow Americans for the simple fact of being different than him?
What is your guess about the percentage who are using it with ill intent?
Less than one percent.
Interesting. Have you ever met anyone in that one percent?
ONce. Working at a medical facility in the rural south a family had a very old male member who insisted on wearing a confederate flag hat, and we were warned by his family to not discuss it with him.
Oddly he also insisted on daily trips to the bar in order to agree to go for treatment.
The doctor stated that this would lead to horrible side effects.
But it did not.
The doctor had no explanation for this medical oddity.
Odds are that guy is dead by now.
Despite being in the South, he was considered a loon by his family and the local members of the facility.
You've only met one person in your life who flies that flag or wears it somehow as a sign that he or she is not interested in equality with black people?
That's awesome.
He was considered a loon by his family and the locals working at the medical facility.
This undermines your bigoted view of the South as a horribly racist place.
It is awesome.
America is an awesome place. It is to bad you libs are so determined to ruin it.
Yep....and it's great that they have a flag to wave so we can see them coming.Welfare conservatives in the middle of the day decide to show up and prove they are as ignorant as we assumed they were. Then it gets applauded here.
Is this news to anyone?

With the confederate flag, it is all about symbolism isn't it?Racists waving the confederate flag at black guy
Guess that proves it is not a racist symbol
How do you know they are racist?
4 years of destruction and treason is a "region"?[
NOpe. The confederate battle flag has been a harmless symbol of regional pride for quite a long period of history.
I could be a real asshole here and post a picture of a "harmless" lynching of a black person, but I'm sure that would break some forum rules.
Here's why this is such a fun issue. The people who really run the GOP would love to get rid of the Confederate Flag. Just like they want the gay marriage and abortion discussions to go away.
But their bubba-redneck supporters want it.
NOpe. I recognize you guys that have been attacking Southerns as the haters.
As you personally have constantly shown with your admitted hatred and bigotry and now with wanting to imprison people for no reason other than being from a different culture than you.
Let me ask you something.
Are any of the people who fly the confederate flag doing so as a means of being divisive or expressing their bigotry?
Out of the millions who do? There are certainly some who are.
The vast, overwhelming majority? no. Harmless regional pride.
Less than one percent.
Interesting. Have you ever met anyone in that one percent?
