It's all about division and power? A divided house will fall and those in power will prevail.

And even today Democrats, Obama, and the Progressive Left are today still dividing Americans, across; Race, Class, Gender, Sexual Behavior, etc., etc., etc. Today's target is whitey, the rich, they accuse others of a war on women

Democrats depend on division, always have and always will...

The Confederate Flag was “adopted” by Southern Democrats, as a sign of rebellion against the broader society.

Cultural racism continued through Jim Crow (Democrats), and opposition to the Civil Rights Movement (Democrats). This history is mostly lost on our youth, because of their indoctrination in the academies, and popular culture.

Seriously?!?

Please, please re-read your comment above. Take a minute or two to think about what you wrote, then read it again.

I'll wait....

Times up...

"I frankly tired of Liberals making everything about race. When this is a clear case of terrorism."


Terrorism to do what? Terrorism targeting whom?

Did you read Dylann Roof's manifesto? Have you listened to a single report regarding his rationale for his actions?


No one, and I mean no is trying to turn a racially motivated act of terrorism into a racially motivated act of terrorism, Dylann Roof did that all by himself!

I am convinced that the dumbing down of most Americans is almost complete when it comes to our history!

The real Stars and Bars:


The flag that the media keeps calling the Stars and Bars is the Confederate Naval Jack.

More history:

The historical reasons for the War of Northern Aggression have more to do with severe tariffs and duties the North placed on Southern goods than with slavery.

The Yankee border states had slaves too.
In fact, the Emancipation Proclamation was just a war ploy on Lincoln’s part, “freeing” only the slaves in the confederacy, and trying to create a fifth column behind enemy lines.

The border state slaves remained enslaved until the end of the war.

Lincoln was quoted as saying he wanted to send all the blacks back to Africa.

For your scrap books:

Pray tell- what is it than?

Furthermore- What does being liberal, conservative, democrat or republican have to do with it? Who's making the political theater here? It's all the right wingers- that's who. Look in the mirror pal. Some black constituents- AMERICANS, really want the CSA battle flag to removed. They lost the war- WHY FLY IT?

Right-wingers seem to be the ones running to cover themselves with the battle flag of the CSA- a symbol of race division and class warfare with a heavy, sugary layer of heritage heaped on top to make it taste better.. How American is that? That's not our nations flag now is it? Seems like some of these right-winger folks are a little over-torqued. Reminds me of the true state socialist propaganda circa 1935-38.
And i don't see how a right-winger flying a CSA flag has any affect on me whatsoever

Default An answer to the "Flag" problem

Why don't we just remove from history, any and all mention of the Civil War ? It would end the controversy of the "Flag", it would remove all references to slavery, inequality, racism, etc. If removing the Confederate flag will accomplish anything, then forgetting about the Civil War would be even greater. It's so simple.
