Does he have the authority to do this????
I think he has to leave them where they lay. They’re just not going to give their lives any CREDIT, anymore.
I hope the University of Alabama hears about this. In fact - I’m going to let them know about it right now!
ROLL TIDE!
(Beau has Alabama ties. I’m sure he and other Alum would like to know about this!)
What you don’t get is that it doesn’t matter. This is about power and control using the rules below.
They don’t care about Confederates, it is just a way to move the country to war and ruin. If it wasn’t this it would be something else.
Somebody for God’s sake show Trump the Rules so he can fight back effectively.
Saul Alinsky’s Rules from Rules for Radicals
Saul Alinsky describes 24 rules in Rules for Radicals. Of those 24 rules, 13 are rules of “power tactics”:
1. “Power is not only what you have but what the enemy
thinks you have.”
2. “Never go outside the experience of your people.”
3. “Wherever possible go outside of the experience of the
enemy.”
4. “Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.”
5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”
6. “A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.”
7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.”
8. “Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and
actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose.”
9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing
itself.”
10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of
operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.”
11. “If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will
break through into its counterside.”
12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive
alternative.”
13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”
The remaining 11 rules Alinsky describes are concerned with “the ethics of means and ends”:
1. “One’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s personal interest in the issue … Accompanying this rule is the parallel one that one’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s distance from the scene of conflict.”
2. “The judgment of the ethics of means is dependent upon the political position of those sitting in judgment.”
3. “In war the end justifies almost any means.”
4. “Judgment must be made in the context of the times in which the action occurred and not from any other chronological vantage point.”
5. “Concern with ethics increases with the number of means available and vice versa.”
6. “The less important the end to be desired, the more one can afford to engage in ethical evaluations of means.”
7. “Generally success or failure is a mighty determinant of ethics.”
8. “The morality of a means depends upon whether the means is being employed at a time of imminent defeat or imminent victory.”
9. “Any effective means is automatically judged by the opposition as being unethical.”
10. “You do what you can with what you have and clothe it with moral garments.”
11. “Goals must be phrased in general terms like ‘Liberty, Equality, Fraternity,’ ‘Of the Common Welfare,’ ‘Pursuit of Happiness,’ or ‘Bread and Peace.’”
I smell an internationally famous, Soros-funded community organizer/agitator.
Dead American POWs.
That’s a good question.
Maybe the mayor should be removed by a special vote?
Well, you’re probably right. It is my, ‘David’ against their, ‘Goliath.’
But, I did e-mail University of Alabama to let them know that Madison, WI - HOME TO THE UW BADGER FOOTBALL TEAM - is disrespecting their Civil War compatriots! :)
This Yankee thanks you!
The Civil War is something that scared us, but something that ALSO brought the country back together again.
Thank You, Abraham Lincoln!
Soglin is a dangerous POS.
As a Demonicrat, Madison Mayor Paul Soglin has supported murder-by-abortion. Mayor Soglin and other Demonicrats should be arrested, tried, convicted, and sentenced to be publicly hanged for giving aid and comfort to the enemy, and crimes against humanity.
All statues, streets, parks, buildings, and other areas named after any post-1973 Demonicrats should be removed or the names changed.
The Demonicrat Party should be outlawed as a domestic terrorist organization. Grade school students should be taught about the evils of Demonicrats and school field trips should be provided to locations where the Demonicrat carcasses are left to rot off the noose.
Nathan Bedford Forrest founded the KKK. Forrest Hill Cemetery MUST be renamed!
And their sacrifice is any less than anyone else that fought for God & Country in the Civil War.
I HOPE I’m just misunderstanding you.
But, I guess some would see them as traitors to begin with.
Some reason we can’t just slaughter 140 Modern-Day Socialists and call it even? ;)
I am quite sure until a few days ago 99% of the residents in Madison did not know about the marker!
They were, in fact, American POWs.
Due all the respect and honor due to any other American POW.
Madison Mayor Paul Soglin made the list of idiots long ago.
He is a hard core communist.
I wonder who owns the property may not even be city owned.
He most likely is way over stepping his authority.
Gov. Walker needs to stop this.
In Madison they can put up statutes to their heros - Mao, Stalin, and Che.
The name Wisconsin is a Native American word. It is blatantly racist for the white man to use it for his selfish purposes. Please change the name of your state immediately you offensive racist white invaders!
“In 1975, Soglin became the first U.S. mayor and only the fourth politician from the United States to meet Fidel Castro.”

Well, now. How about that. Whatta guy.
