I think we conservatives have better just get used to the idea that America has decided how it wants to govern itself. It no longer is interested in a rule of law, derived from the Constitution and founded by the Declaration of Independence, grounded in individual liberty. We have now embarked on a new course to govern ourselves according to group rights.

Some groups are very much out of favor. Among these are those who commemorate the Confederacy and its cause, Protestant preachers who believe in the sanctity of marriage, and Chrysler bondholders. Groups that are very much in favor include minority groups, unions, homosexuals, and community agitators.

So these permit seekers should not take this personally. The refusal to grant them a permit was not personal, it has nothing to do with them personally, they are just members of the wrong group.

I wonder how long it will take before these idiots discover we actually have Confederate graveyards here? Will they come in and dig the bones up? Let’s see...it’s only been 144 years. When will they get over the fear of the Confederacy?

If a group of fags had asked to march they would have been permitted.

Of the 224 years that slavery was legal in America the Stars and Stripes flew; only four of those years did the Stars and Bars fly

They should have presented themselves as the local chapter of NAMBLA.

More evidence of the Nazification of an entire people, the Southerner and their descendants. Since 1865 the Nation has been trying to heel itself from that terrible war, then some morons throw salt on the would by saying you cant fly that flag or march in our parade, or remind the country in any way that their was a Confederacy.

When I put the US Flag out tomorrow, my Confederate Battle Flag goes up too.

Sometimes we get funny looks for that but don’t bother us none.

Those of us Southerners, by birth, rearing or philosophy, who keep fighting the War for Southern Independence have good reason. Northern Liberals have looked down on the South since Revolutionary days. And the aftermath of the war was the ultimate punishment. And the punishment continues!

“Had I foreseen the results of subjugation, I would have preferred to die at Appomatox with my brave men, my sword in this right hand.” General Robert E. Lee

I remember back in the 60’s when the left passionately argued for the right to desecrate the American flag as Free Speech. Now that they’re in charge, their tolerance has vanished.

Where did this take place?

These smalltown papers so often leave out the town and state where things happened.

As for the letter writer, is he black or just liberal?

This makes perfect sense. Memorial Day was begun as a holiday to remember the brave Union Soldiers who fought for the US against domestic terrorists during the southern revolt. It was never a very big holiday in the south until after WWII.

Confederate veterans can’t march in a parade, but a Kenyan born Democrat named Obama can serve as President?

Why is Obama spending an enormous amount of legal fees in keeping his birth certificate hidden?
