An excellent graphic by state of the ESPN Poll of the CBF on the S.C. Capitol Grounds. Why am I not surprised by the reults?

Ping!

I like how the “eeeeeeeeeeeeeevil” states are shown as red and the “good” states are shown as blue. Wouldn’t blue and gray be a better choice of colors for such a poll?

I am surprised about the level of support in the north. The vote up there is not the inverse of, say, Mississippi as I would have expected. Not a scientific poll though.

[BnBlFlag]

Yes!

Dear Rest of the Country - especially those of whom are offended,

This is a SC issue. We’re ok - not entirely happy, mind you - with what we have now. Kindly butt out. Thanks.

Love,

SC

It’s sad to see Utah jumping on the liberal “historical cleansing” bandwagon, but the State has seen a mighty influx of Calif liberal scum. It seems like every liberal and queer in the intermountain west has decided to settle in Salt Lake City around the UofU. That’s why the SLC mayor is a filthy fascist ACLU lawyer.

Time for a purge.

Looks like CA, OR, and MA have the highest percentage of objectors (63%).

History is evil! Kill History!!

The 1860s are over.

Hanging onto the long dead past is destroying the Republican Party.

No real surprises there - Calfornia, Oregon and Maine tied for most liberal.

Hasn't anyone at ESPN ever read a history book? There's a reason why we have the Congress set up the way we do. Why our nation is called "the United States of America." It's because we have a federal system of government.

Each state is free, within its own power and jurisdiction, to organize itself as it chooses. It is impossible to imagine a matter that is more clearly submitted to the legislature of each state than the official state flag. And anyone who understands those basic points about American government, would also recognize that it's NONE OF ANY OTHER STATE'S BUSINESS what flag South Carolina chooses to have.

Sometimes matters of government are also matters of common sense. This ain't rocket science, folks. Still, the MSM continues to fumble the ball at almost every opportunity.

Given that the left didn't honor the deal, SC should put the flag back on top of the Capitol.

Kansas, Missouri, and Virginia were at 49-51 percent. Really close. I tell you again this shows how split our country is on everything. I think this 2008 election is going to be another squeeker. It is amazing how split we are as a nation.

how can anyone hate this!

[Proud2BeRight]

And why would a “sports network” do this kind of poll?

—as somewhat of an aside to this, after doing a tour of Civil War battlefields four years ago and listening to the politically corrected stuff put forth by some of the guides, I suspect that after a Hillary administration, history will be corrected to reveal that the war was won by the slaves, wielding their hammers and sickles-—
