Hey ask the day nurse to up your dose.
stencil a cbf on the monument. Confederate lives matter.
This is exactly how our current leaders will act when Islam takes over the nation. They will bend over and take it up the rear with a smile.
Given that she’s in her second term and is term-limited.
i say tear her drawers off and run them up the flag pole.
“It is a flag of treason flown by people who killed loyal Americans, who fought to destroy the U.S.;”
You really are not aware that the Confederacy declared itself to be a sovereign nation, and had no intention of invading the Union to “destroy the U.S.?
Lol
OH GOODY!!
That’ll solve... something I guess

this 80’s movie has been forgotten now (i think. i don’t have cable TV. for all i know TBS might play this movie every other weekend), but i always liked this scene especially.
as i understand it, Lindsey Graham is giddy with excitement! :p
Next on the agenda, remove the Confederate Soldiers Monument, the Bill Tillman and Wade Hampton statues, the Confederate Women’s Memorial, and the Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee Highway markers. Then cut down the Robert E. Lee memorial magnolia tree.
Bear in mind that this came to her on a 94-20 vote from the state House. That’s more than an 80% majority. If you’re angry over this, there’s plenty of blame to go around.
Don't be so hard on yourself.
He apparently knows nothing about history, and like the Taliban doesn’t want to. Must be a very sad little person. People who are willing to destroy history are capable of creating a new holocaust.
Lesson learned: when supporting a candidate, we should pay closer attention to their background. Have any recall petitions been started?
Iraq or North Vietnam didn't want to conquer the US, but if American citizens threw in with them, we'd still consider them guilty of treason. Whatever Germany's or Japan's or Russia's ultimate intentions with respect to the US, we would have hanged Americans who worked for them. Aaron Burr didn't want to destroy the US. He just wanted to carve his own country out of US (and possibly Spanish) territory. But still we tried him for treason.
I'm not saying the Confederate case is the same as these other cases. For one thing, the Nazis and Communists were far worse. For another "sedition" is the word that might more accurately be used, rather than "treason." But if treason means making war against the United States, you can't just dismiss or "Lol" away applying the word to the Confederate leadership.
If that was true of the Vietnam War, Jane Fonda would be dead instead of old and enormously wealthy.
You are right. And in South Carolina they were flying the Confederate flag at a Confederate Memorial. It doesn't make sense to fly a federal flag at a Confederate Memorial or at the grave site of a Confederate soldier (unless maybe they served in the United States military before or after the War of Northern Aggression).
Now, on to the Washington Redskins!
Interesting post. Can you point to a Confederate at any level that was charged and convicted of treason - or is this just some promised future event?
