Sen. Dodd Calls for the Removal of the Confederate Flag from South Carolina's Statehouse Grounds

Until Senator Graham starts sticking his nose into what's going on in Connecticut I suggest Senator Dodd keep his nose out of what's going on in South Carolina.

[Non-Sequitur]

The Northern Army took anything that wasn't nailed down here (Grant's wife took 20 wagon loads of furniture from this town alone) and burned the rest.

Now couldn't we just have had a nice discussion slamming Dodd for sticking his nose where it don't belong without injecting southron myth into the mix and making into another Southern rebellion thread?

Sorry, I'm still not getting this. You're either a part of the United States or you're not. You can't have it both ways. Why would you want to fly a flag indicating you're not? By your logic, if a state wanted to fly a Muslim flag or a Mexican flag, it would be Ok, because it's "up to the states to decide."

So...if it were up to you they would change the name of the amusement parks to "One Flag Over Georgia" and "One Flag Over Texas" and all the rest?

Looks like we're gonna have to "McCain" Dodd. You up for another round?

[PistolPaknMama]

I thought the Democrats believed in that sep. of church and state?

Because they are flaming hypocrites!

Check out the state flags of Hawaii with the Union Jack, Mississippi with the stars and bars, New Mexico, Alabama with St. Andrew's cross, etc. Most state flags relate to their own unique history and not whether they are part of the US or not. It is all about federalism and the individual states which comprise the Union.

Dodd belongs in a museum also. The Museum of the Damned.

And this is gonna be his major campaign theme? God almighty!!!

The blue Palmetto flag of South Carolina was first adopted in January of 1861, and is therefore the first "Confederate flag". We have a welcoming committee meeting Senator Dodd today. I expect he'll see a lot of Confederate flags. We don't appreciate dam-yankees coming down here, and telling us what to do.

PS.. To be historically correct, Georgia's current flag is the Stars and Bars, and Mississippi's flag contains the Battleflag

...eyp---another reason why southern democrats vote their concience and vote republican.

[LurkedLongEnough]

Thank you for the historical background.

Certainly Sen. Dodd would brush it off as irrelevant to his selfish power grab.

[newnhdad]

Chris Dodd is a joke. All it'll take is one or two of the people he groped to come forward and he'll bow out.
It'll shouldn't get that far, but the Clinton opp-research team probably has them lined up, just in case.

Why do these people with such obvious skeletons think they can become president? There has to be something else behind it.

Thanks. Georgia changed its state flag in 2003. No more Stars and Bars
