Dear Thelma;
I would like to thank you for your comment. I now realize that I owe my rights and freedoms to the Confederacy and its Battle Flag. I always thought that these were contained in the US Constitution and its amendments. Obviously I was a victim of Yankee propaganda during my formative years. Once again thanks for setting the record straight.
Sincerely,
Bob C.
P.S. How does one debate an idiot?
After all, many neoconfederates wouldn’t be neoconfederates if they weren’t stupid.
An example of a total disconnect from reality….
I would call it typical. They actually believe this stuff and think the rest of us are crazy. These are the people who fall for a lot of dangerous propaganda and remain angry about it.
LOL!!!

Actually the first part is somewhat right. Southerners have carried the Confederate flag into every conflict from WW1 to Vietnam. One was put up on Shiri Castle during the Okinawan campaign. Plenty of “nose art” in ww2/Korean had painted confederate flags. I don’t know about Desert Storm or the Iraq war, but i suspect there were a few small confederate flags carried by marines or us soldiers here and there.
I don’t think a Confederate flag could have been carried during the American Revolution, the War of 1812, or the Mexican American War. Somewhat right is still wrong.
