This is A-ok with conservatives when they do it to their own president.

What would really enrage them is if Bibi Netanyahu was greeted with a Nazi flag. Because that's how they roll!

Obama was greeted by Confederate flag supporters when he got to Tennessee

Obama loves it. This is the only thing that keeps him in the news now.

What is funny is that President Obama isn't calling for the "takedown" of the Confederate flag. Why are they protesting him? Oh ! He's black!

I think it is fine for people to fly the Confederate flag at their home. I could care less if they want to define themselves as racist.

Who's to say that they're a racists? They may be flying it for other reasons, such as simply Southern pride. It's not unusual to see people flying flags, whether they're for sports teams, states they live in, the country of their heritage, or even what their sexual preference is. Just because it represents racism to you doesn't mean that it means that to them.
Heck, all this dumb flag controversy makes me want to fly one just as an example of anti-PC.
