An alternative reality can be a hard thing to sell.

And so it went, for two endless hours in which only Dick Gephardt looked good. He skipped this gong show.

He can't escape that easy. Read on!

GEPHARDT: "The Confederate flag is a hurtful, divisive symbol and in my view, has no place flying anywhere in any state in this country."
(AP, , January 11, 2003)

GEPHARDT: "I want to be crystal clear to the people of South Carolina where I stand on this issue," Gephardt said, "I think South Carolina should remove the Confederate flag from any official display anywhere in the state."
(The Columbia State, 2003)

GEPHARDT: "I understand the strong feelings South Carolinians on both sides of the issue have and acknowledge the sincere efforts leaders of both political parties have made to reach a compromise," Gephardt's statement said. "But, my own personal feeling is that the Confederate flag no longer has a place flying anytime, anywhere in our great nation."
(The Columbia State, 2003)

The governor's plain talk and the reaction of the other gong-show contestants enlivened what was otherwise the dreariest debate so far, conducted before an audience of know-nothing teenagers (some of whom looked to be on the back side of 30) eager to ask what the Wall Street Journal described as "underpants" questions, as in the famous question put to Bill Clinton about whether he wore boxers or briefs.

This is one of the best descriptions of today's Democrat party I've ever seen.

LOL!! great line!

I don't know why people have such a hard time with history. The Confederate flag has historical significance. There's no reason people, or statehouses, shouldn't be allowed to fly them. As a black female, I could care less if people want to fly a Confederate flag or put one in in their pickup trucks.

As usual, liberals point to symbol over substance. What I am concerned about is how I'm treated as a human. You can be a Confederate flag waving biker and treat me with humanity or you can be a latte-drinking liberal who thinks I can't get into college or get a job unless I get bonus points for skin color. Guess which one I'd rather deal with?

Every day, liberals give me more reasons to hate them for the racists that they are.
