[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here’s the question I wish *someone* would ask these southern GOP candidates: “If you were alive during the time of the Civil War, would you have supported the Union or the Confederacy?”

I think it’s a totally fair question (not a “gotcha” by any means) and would tell us a lot about that person.  It would be particularly relevant with Haley, given her experience with the South Carolina state flag.[/quote]

You do know she *removed* the Confederate flag from the SC capitol building - right?   :roll:

And then years later she still thinks it represents heritage and not hate. It’s always been about hate.

“During an interview with talk show host Glenn Beck, Haley described how she reacted after white supremacist Dylann Roof murdered nine people at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church.

"Here is this guy who comes out with this manifesto, holding the Confederate flag," she said, referring to Roof. "And [he] had just hijacked everything that people thought of. We don't have hateful people in South Carolina -- there's always the small minority, that's always going to be there -- but people saw it as service and sacrifice and heritage, but once he did that, there was no way to overcome it."
