He'd have to be a right-winger to deserve that tag.

I see, so it isn't at all about truth, it is just about unfairly tarring your political opponents. It must really suck to go around hating people who don't think exactly like you do. Y'all need to lose the partisanship and learn how to think independently. When you become a non-partisan independent like me you will truly be free. Wake up. Both parties and ideologies are corrupt, they are bought and paid for. Democracy exists to inhibit change.

Dukes of Hazzard wasn't racist, in fact they avoided race issues all together by pretending there are no black folks in Georgia.

I didn't know Dukes of Hazzard came on TV Land, I've always seen it on CMT.

Thank you for increasing the value of my Dukes of Hazzard crap in my parent's attic. My 1st grade Lunch Box seems to be worth $150 now and that doesn't even include the trading cards, stickers, matchbox cars, models, posters and the slot car tracks.

Perhaps we could make liberals happy by turning the General into a Nissan Leaf with a rainbow flag on top and putting Daisy Duke into a pant suit so she doesn't get Objectified.

I'm sure a lot of the minor actors in the series, all old now and using those residual checks to supplement their retirement will be heartened by this. It's not like they really needed that blood pressure medicine anyway.

But now the networks need to go through everything produced more than 10 years ago looking for any other signs of non-PC behavior. I'm surprised TCM is even still allowed to broadcast.

What is all the fuss about concerning this flag?
When did it take on a racist moniker?
I remember my knowledge of the flag was pride in the deep south.
Traveling south from the north, you knew when you were inFDixie.
The confederate flag was everywhere.
It stood for pride, just as the flag of the united states.
How did it turn into a racist thing?
It was fine and dandy for years the flag flew over the state house in Alabama, and I am sure it was with pride.
Now all of a sudden the state tears it down because it is a symbol of racism?
This is just foolishness,
Put the dammed flag back where it was, and show your southern pride as you always have.

Bob.
