Does another find it interesting that the GOP has more or less shut up on this subject at this point.

Did they learn their lesson?

they Stonewall (oops! Can I even use that expression any more?)

Certainly! If anyone objects mention that you are using it to memorialize the bravery of those who participated in the Stonewall riots in New York! They won't dare criticize that!

PC can be fun.

This isn’t about racism; the Rebel battle flag represent defiance of the Federal Government. This is the concept that needs to be purged from the collective memory. There is no escape from FedGov™. Slavery and racism is just the excuse for deleting this from our history.

“Did they learn their lesson? “

Are you talking about the GOP? Not likely. They are just bidding their time, looking for another opportunity to sell their supporters down the river. Pun intended.

Thanks, I had to get that off my chest.

While I don’t like critiquing ‘my side’ that needed to be said.

This Leftist insanity has got to stop, and we don’t need ‘our side’ helping them out.

One of the few advantages of the GOPe over the Rats is that some of the former understand appeasement never works in foreign policy. Alas none of them understand appeasement works the same way in domestic policy. Even in the allegedly conservative state of SC.

This is so very disappointing to me. Nikki Haley, in my opinion, has been pitbull as a Gov. I have followed her since her first debate running for Gov. The good ‘ol boys in this state (Republicans) went after her with a vengeance because they didn’t like the way she shook the boat as a legislator.

She was a true Conservative and she always made the right decisions. Especially how she went after the union trying to take over our Boeing plant.

Now, she’s just another pandering politician. She’s toast as far as I am concerned.

The jury is still out on how I feel toward Sen. Tim Scott.

Yes, exactly – you only have to look at where the Leftists are heading next, to the US Flag, the Gadsden flag, etc.

They want to purge thoughtcrime (i.e. opposition to them) as quickly as they can.

Exactly. I’m wondering how safe the Minnesota flag is now.

The Minnesota flag is of a white man plowing a field and an Indian on horseback riding westward. I remember in my classes in elementary school being taught (in a positive way) the flag was about the white people settling on the land and forcing the Indians to move out.

Nothing should be conceded that advances the agenda of the vile , destructive Left.

Hope springs eternal, but I doubt it myself.

Hmmm I’m trying to think of what the GOP HAS done for it’s base lately...

Rolling snakes eyes on that one.

I shudder to think about how they my go all ‘Bipartisan’ on guns.....

I agree, this should be an object lesson for the rest of the GOPe....

Whether they learn their lesson and take it to heart is another matter.

I agree with those who say the proper response to all this would have been to tell the questioner to respect the mourning families and come back in a few weeks.

Now Houston ISD wants to rename schools. That means a trip to an August school Board meeting. I am already all over them on the Arabic Immersion Magnet School here that makes two activities 4 August.
