And before those of you who try to justify the Democrats by saying that the Republicans have also done evil, let me remind you that The Democrat Slaver Party has historically been the Party of progressivism and the Republicans the Party of (in the modern US definition) Conservatism. Sure, the Republican Party has had is ebbs and flows; but has never held long a position that is so abominable that it should be abandoned. Plus, we have the Tea Party making progress within the Republican Party. On the other hand, the Democrat Party has had many, and held on to many, evil ideals as their foundation. Furthermore; having a right to do evil does not justify an evil as the Democrat Slaver Party has and is still doing.
For these reasons; the Democrat Party should be abandoned and never be defend and/or justified past or present. Why would anyone want to defend the Democrat Slavers of then and now?

Why is he an ‘idiot’?
I don’t have a problem with the Confederate flag anyway. Do the ‘rats have a problem with their hero Robert Byrd, former KKK leader and their designated “conscience of the Senate”?
THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
“...one idiot decided to bring Confederate flag, ...”
It’s also entirely possible - and highly probable - that the so-called “idiot” was a lefty plant, doing what he was told to do, to give the other side their talking point and pictorial/graphic.
Put nothing past them.
Are we sure it wasn’t just someone from Georgia carrying his state flag?
A friend of mine who recently visited Virginia said Confederate flags were trending there!
That flag has never injured or insulted this yankee.
As with Bob Costas, it wasn’t physically painful to say “Redskins” 5 or 10 years ago, why now?
Think I’m going to get me a confederate battle flag and fly it here over the lake with lights so it sticks out at night. It can stand in defiance of the liberal ivory tower of PC.
Looks like a plant. Post the pic around and let’s find the guy a I guarantee he’s a Obama campaign volunteer
no sale. actually, the leaders of the GOPe have lately been making among the most racist comments, i’ve ever heard (Jeb Bush for example), and the very idea of amnesty for votes is completely racist in the extreme.
no revisionist history please. and the GOP itself has been a liberty stealing disaster mitigated by a few good men since Teddy Roosevelt.
They are all orgasmic over the idea of slavery to the state.
Democrats never pass up on opportunity to tell us why slavery by the state is for our own protection and our own safety, because life under the anarchy that conservatives want to impose is just too risky and dangerous. We can't have any of that inhumane"on-your-own economics" that conservatives advocate.
Thereby proving that you no longer have to be black to be an Uncle Tom.
Ditto for their watercarriers in the MSM.
After decades of outrageous lies, deceptions and fearmongering, their views have no legitimacy whatsoever and bear no consideration.
Those who are persuaded by these lies cannot be won over to the conservative point of view until events and personal experience open their eyes.
But admittedly, the Gadsen or Culpepper, 'Don't Tread on Me' might be more appropriate since this does seem to be more of a battle against the 'Royals' and our 'divine right' rulers.
Liberal BS only works on the historically ignorant and simple minded. So why does it work on you?
That man was not an idiot.
For all the hub-bub, the Confederate Flag, was a symbol of secession.
I have no “slaver’s blood” in me, for I am a true half-breed, Mojave and German immigrant stock.
I DO know that a lot of States’ Rights issues are being taken over by a centralized federal government, outside and beyond the scope of the U.S. Constitution. Just as there could have been some of the same issues, and some only valid for that time frame in the 1850’s, the trampling begins again.
I see nothing wrong here but when you have a country full of “REAL history-challenged” people, race pimps (and we all know who I’m talking about) and electorate with an IQ well below room temperature of course the Confederate Flag will be used to cry racism. The dumbing down of America has almost come full circle.
