‘Suddenly there is a Confederate flag flying’ in Seattle’s Greenwood area (Norwegian Flag)

People are so ignorant.

I have a pal in the western parts of our liberal state who is very devoted to Confederate stuff. He advises all his members (several different organizations) who want to show Confederate pride to use the Bonnie Blue because people have no clue.

Indeed, no one does.

"Then Robert E Lee lead the Army of the Norweigians"

You mean the Army of North Weginians.

“Don’t forget the Russian neighborhoods.”

The Russian neighborhoods are colluding with the Norwegians, I think. Get Mueller on it.

[the OlLine Rebel]

I prefer that to the yellow Gadsden.

It’s more American-looking with the stripes, and easier to replicate with a stretched-out snake only, not coiled with grass and other details.

The flag of Somalia is identical to the Bonnie Blue Flag! ...the Bonnie Blue Somalia flag. Ha ha !

[WayneS]

I agree. It’s one of my favorites.

I have two flag poles in front of my house. I fly the U.S. flag over the Virginia State flag on one pole, and a Navy Jack over the Culpeper Minutemen flag on the second.

[apocalypto]

Yes, and that show the hatred for the U.S. and its history.

[ebshumidors]

I fly this. It confuses everybody.

[Celtic Conservative]

Hoist the colors, matey!

Arrrgh!

Seriously, though, it may eventually come down to saving our way of life by “going rogue”.

Yeah, it’s a news story every time I see a Confederate battle flag! I’m telling!

Journalists and police should be hanging out at the Wal-Mart constantly!

That’s because that flag WAS the Stars and Bars. So many think that the St. Andrews Cross battle flag of the Army of Northern Virginia (as well as the navy jack) that is so well known was the Stars and Bars.

[captain_dave]

Brilliant! Where’d you find this?

Andrew Zimmern said a chef in Iceland prepares a pretty tasty lutefisk.

After the alkali bath, the fish was left to soak in slowly running water for some number of hours before cooking.

The blue in the Somalia flag is a shade lighter.

[ought-six]

LOL!

[nanetteclaret]

Unless it has the letters T E X A S among the star points - and then it’s the deZavala Flag. :)

[BlueLancer]

I know ... that gives me a chuckle every time I tell somebody that and they just give me a vague smile and nod ...

Regarding the average American's perception of Norway....

[apocalypto]

The author Rebecca Morris is incredibly stupid to get worked up over a flag that to me looks nothing like a Confederate battle flag. Shows how dumb R. Morris is about U.S. history and the world.

Just last month the bomb-squad was called out to Ballard. Somebody had forgotten their Tupperware container of lutefisk after the Saturday night get-together at the Elk’s Lodge.
