Now why would any body think the new flag reminds them of the old Stars and bars? Actually, since most of the people complaining are probably victims of the public education system, they won't know what the Stars and Bars looked like:
Confederate Stars and Bars
The First Official Flag of the Confederacy.
Although less well known than the "Confederate Battle Flags", the Stars and Bars was used as the official flag of the Confederacy from March 1861 to May of 1863.

Like I said earlier this flag is alright, but the Battle Flag is my pick and quite frankly if the people here in Georgia don't like it. Well then they can vote against it or leave, it's really that simple. Thanks Gov. Perdue.

THANK YOU!!!
I thought I was the only person in the world who noticed. Apparently the morons fighting against the Confederate flag know nothing about history.
