Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith wore Confederate rebel hat in Facebook (trunc)
CNBC ^ | November 20th, 2018 | Dan Mangan

Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith smilingly posed for a photo in 2014 while wearing a Confederate cap and holding a rifle, then put the image on her Facebook page with the words "Mississippi history at its best!"

That image, taken at a Mississippi museum, resurfaced Tuesday as AT&T, Leidos and Walmart joined two other companies, Union Pacific and Boston Scientific, in asking Hyde-Smith, a Republican, to return campaign contributions because of controversy over her recent jest about being willing to attend a public "hanging."

Except I never called CHS that, or anyone else.

I just called her stupid. Big difference.

Yes, you are invested in her.

I suspect you voted for her in the primary.

Yeah, right? It’s like they’re trying to lose. Is this how RINOS are trying to sabotage Trump?

The final nail was the fact that in 1860 the Demons split their party into three factions and ran three candidates allowing Lincoln to win with a plurality of the popular vote.

I don’t know enough about her to call her all those things.

I do know enough about her to know she’s stupid. That’s readily apparent to even the casual observer.

In fact, I doubt even you would contest that assertion.

Not what he said but I find democrats often lie.

And then stealth communists repeat the democrat lie.

Fantasies hit the wall of Lincoln. His platform included not interfering with slavery where it existed but the Fire-Eaters demanded that it be allowed to expand.

Lincoln was a moderate when elected, not at all in accord with the Abolitionists, the fanatics on the North’s side.

For the South the entire war was over slavery and the fear of the Slavers.

Look...you folks in MS better get up & out and support & vote for this woman 100%, come next Tuesday, Election Day. We need that Senate seat. Face the facts, the Democrats are desperate. Desperate people, especially desperate Democrats do both desperate & illegal things to win elections.

You all better wake up.....here’s the real skinny. Obama. Clinton, Biden. Schumer, Winfrey, etc.. did “ZILCH” for any Democrat Senate or Governor candidate. POTUS, Trump delivered fifteen of them. Trump kept Texas, Florida & Georgia..100% RED One governor and two senators for each state. When this fine gal wins her runoff next week, we, the GOP will have fifty-three (53) Senators...we own the Senate, we own the Executive Branch. The house will melt into turmoil as the Democrats turn on themselves.

Also...remember that not one of the supposed “MEGA” Democrat “Glitter Stars” won their races. Gillum, Abrams, O’Rourke, Nelson, McCaskill and many others are flushed down the toilet. period!!!

So... MS voters...all of you...Black, White, Whatever, you gotta do two things...first attend the POTUS, Trump Rallies for Cindy Hyde-Smith, next Monday, (11-26-2018) night in Tupelo & Biloxi, MS and then get your butts out and vote on Tuesday, November 27, 2018 for CINDY HYDE-SMITH...period. Do it, do it, do it!!! It’s super important. You owe that to Ms. Hyde-Smith and to our fantastic POTUS, Trump, who campaigned harder then anyone running for office during this election cycle.

Go, Trump, Go, Hyde-Smith, Go, Trump MEGA/MAGA Rallies, Go, “GOP” GOTV . Elect Cindy Hyde-Smith the full time Senator of MS!!!

Lincoln went to war to preserve the Union and won. The South went to war to preserve an economic system based on the use of slave labor and lost everything.

you are either misinformed or lying. here are his precise words:

Well you know, people always want to try to make that as one of those things, well how do you, how do you slice this particularly tough sort of ethical question. First of all, from what I understand from doctors, that's really rare. If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.

due to my limitless faith in humanity, I choose to believe you're dumb, rather than dishonest.
