Well, despite all the attempts by race card players, majority of this country is still sane - http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/02/politics/confederate-flag-poll-racism-southern-pride/

Who said the following recently...

"Are all people who display or own a Confederate flag racist? No.
Are there racists who display and own Confederate flags. Yes.
Can it be offensive? Yes.
Does that mean that all Confederate flags are to be banned or wiped out? Well, of course not. This is America…remember?"

Ok...if you want to read all she has to say I will save you the search...I especially liked her pointing out there were NO RIOTS and people of all colors and creeds came together! She also points out where the confederate flag should never be displayed.

It's the morons here who seemed to defend the flag up and down. Politicians are too smart. They know where the public is going on this.

Right...guess Jeb Bush doesn't count...he removed the flag 14 years ago.

Totally. I am from the deep south and think the flag does not belong on any public building. And I can almost immediately write off any chance of intelligent conversation or shared interest with someone who owns one at home/ has it on their vehicle/whatever. I love the south, but I don't understand how a symbol that comes from a time of slavery and brutality against AAs is something has persisted this long in public places.

fine hillary never states take the flag down until recently. you got that. hell maybe she even said its a states right. today her views have changed. a massacre and having empathy for the group it hurt has made her be more vocal and actually say to take it down. republicans on the other hand (some) continue to defend it and double down in some instances on how its fine.

pointing out hillary supporting it, using it, or anything else doesnt "defend" your argument because today she is saying otherwise and saying so emphatically. i understand theres politics involved in this as well. at the same time, what politics are involved on the other side? the need to keep a voting block happy (in this case racists)?

Name the Republicans that are defending and doubling down.

No. Does not fit the narrative.

But your potshot does? LMAO!

Didn't think they would come with any names. Figures.

Hey look at that! I don't see any hemming and hawing in this photo.

Except from the conservatives on DCUM. Or is everyone on board with getting rid of the flag? Even NASCAR is doing a flag swap. You can trade in your stars and bars for a flag that actually honors our country.

Hillary can't control every button made by a supporter.

And there are lots more like it out there - note that they are OVERWHELMINGLY endorsing conservative candidates.

Everyone knows redneck territory and liberals are mutually exclusive.

You forgot this one:

- and there are many other examples from other states; there are even more from Bill's election and re-election campaigns.

It's NOT an officially approved button. Most, if not all, candidates have buttons like that and if one sanctions it...then I will have a problem with them.

Not "officially approved" ??!? What about the votes it helped get for her? Were those "not official votes?"

She certainly did not seem at all opposed to the votes, or the campaign material bearing the confederate flag in 2008.

She travelled to the south three or four weeks ago to campaign; she even faked a southern drawl (an official one I suppose).

BUT SHE DID NOT ADDRESS THE FLAG. Imagine that - the perfect place and opportunity to speak out against the flag, and she failed to do so.

It's obvious she supports the flag when it suits her politically and opposes it whenever she thinks she can gin up a few votes.

Why should we trust her again?

"BUT SHE DID NOT ADDRESS THE FLAG"

WRONG. Apparently yet more shoddy FOX News reporting. Yes, she did address the flag. She said it should not fly, anywhere.

http://nypost.com/2015/06/23/hillary-clinton-confederate-flag-shouldnt-fly-anywhere/

Have you always struggled with basic reading comprehension? She made that statement ONLY AFTER the massacre occurred. Why don't you find a quote from her pre-dating the massacre? -like maybe from one of the many times she campaigned in the south and pandered to them with a fake southern accent which magically disappears when she crosses the Mason-Dixon?

http://www.ijreview.com/2015/05/331226-hillary-clintons-fake-southern-accent-is-baaaaaaack/

Democrats have been silent on the flag up to now because they benefitted from all the votes by old southern democrat voters who love that flag.

Not silent. We pushed to have it removed from state flags two decades ago.

Hillary didn't the memo apparently.
