Graham said that the "Stainless Banner" Confederate flag that was on display...

The "Stainless Banner" is as black as sin.

"If anyone ever tries to get your battle flag removed, we'll be right behind you."

[I still care]

And this latest in new state flags is already in trouble, because it has the wording "IN GOD WE TRUST."

That led Democrat Representative Thomas Bordeaux to declare: "The Church is the place to advertise God, not the government."


Oh, please do. Please. Go ahead - tell everyone in Bible Belt GA how much you hate the word God in public. And while you are at it, tell them God should be out of the pledge too. Keep at it, after all, the reason the Democrats lost last year is because the country didn't understand what the Demos stood for. Right? RIGHT?

Poor choice of words Walt. Freudian slip, maybe?

If the 'stars and bars' are racist then the 'stars and stripes' are as racist, even more so. NAALCP needs to be out to pasture like a lame race horse. Their actions are undoing all the good the NAACP of days gone by have done. Does anyone respect the NAACP anymore? I don't.

I am a Christian, and a Georgian, and I was shocked by the phrase being put on the flag. Seperation of church and state?
Oh, its ok today, when it says In God We Trust, but what about 10 yrs from now when it says In {insert another diety here} We Trust?

[Grand Old Partisan]

The phrase "In God We Trust" was first placed on U.S. money, in 1864, by the U.S./Union Treasury Secretary, Salmon Chase. What a tizzy the neo-Confederates will have when they learn that the slogan on their new Georgia state flag originated with, not a rebel, but a patriot -- one appointed by Abraham Lincoln.

Ok, so what group is going to grow so fast (and how are they going to do it?) that another deity can be inserted? Furthermore, if said group does gain such prominence and power why would they care about whether or not there is "Seperation of church and state?"

Tell us more about ol' Sal why don't you? Tell us what he became next, if you dare, and the two decisions made at his new job during the second half of the 1860s. Tell us also what Sal was like at the beginning of the war, his advice to the tyrant, and his reason for it.

Please tell us, we're all hear to worship the god of the Republican /Whig /Mercantilist party aren't we? I've almost felt sorry for lincoln in the past, almost. But Salmon P. Chase? Never

Sorry stainless, I see Perdue, while presenting a better flag, still sold out

It seems like that is what politicians do best.

[Grand Old Partisan]

Salmon Chase was one of the founders of the Free Soil Party and then of the Republican Party. A Radical Republican, he did a superb job as Treasury Secretary and probably would have been the 1864 GOP presidential nominee had Lincoln not opted for a second term. He resigned from the Cabinet when he did not get the nomination, and President Lincoln then appointed him Chief Justice, replacing the recently deseaced Democrat Chief Justice, Roger Taney, author of the Dred Scott decision. Chase (formerly Chase Manhattan) Bank is named after him.

The wife thinks Georgia should adopt the checkered flag as the state flag, says it would promote racial harmony (get it?) since it's got the black & the white, and hell everybody likes to drive fast. Also suggests eliminating the speed limits in the state - on the same bill. Fine woman.

[billbears]

Awww, come on!! You're only up to 1864. Tell us about some of the 'important' decisions he made after the tyrant appointed him to SCOTUS

[stand watie]

[Grand Old Partisan]

I can't read your mind. Why don't you tell us what's on your mind? And, what do Chief Justice Chase's decisions have to do with Georgia's new state flag?

[stand watie]

me neither. i USED to be a member, but then they threw out all the REDmen/women & Asians, because we were too conservative & too republican!

NOW they are a handfull of money-hungry racebaiters, PC-idiots, creeps & LIBs, leading the dumbest of the dumb.
