Oh and since you wanted to go there, it is plainly obvious that the Clintons are racists and Nazis since the supported the Confederate flag.





The Arkansas flag that Bill Clinton signed into law...
So...
~It is red white and blue, just like "ole glory", and has white stars, just like "ole glory".
~ The diamond represents Arkansas' status as "the only diamond-bearing state in the Union".
~The number (25) of white stars around the border of the diamond represents Arkansas'
position as the 25th state to join the union
~The blue star above "ARKANSAS" represents the Confederate States of America,
A part of Arkansas's history.
Way to go bill!

So as long as it benefits Democrats, use of the Confederate symbol is A-OK...
Thanks for clearing that up!


Did Bill or Hillary design this pin... did they even sanction it???  Did the Democrat party approve
of this pin???
Or did some minor league baseball team design and distribute a pin in support of their candidate???

Looks like a pretty ordinary political poster of it's time.  
The Pics of Bill and Al are obviously sanctioned by the Dem Party.
The matchbook???
Who knows.

“There should be no confusion in anyone’s mind that as a people we’re
united in our determination to put that part of our history behind us.”


— Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), quoted by the Louisville Courier Journal,
supporting efforts to take down the Confederate battle flag.

For The Board Rand Paul Groupies:

"Take Down South Carolina's 'Symbol Of Human Bondage And Slavery'"
Rand Paul


"I think the flag is inescapably a symbol of human bondage and slavery, and
particularly when people use it obviously for murder and to justify hatred so
vicious that you would kill somebody."  "I think that symbolism needs to end,
and I think South Carolina's doing the right thing."



(But... but... states rights? And Individual freedom?  Oh, wait, Randy is running for Presdient.
Never Mind)

Calm down, comrade Boxy.

I understand it's difficult for you to accept that people like the Clintons are part of the Party of the Klan.

LMAO @ Calm Down!  
So funny to watch the board Righties defend the Rebel Flag with their very lives....
Then watch the Right fold and crumble beneath the justice of taking down that Racist Rag.

Like civil rights, gay marriage, Roe v Wade... the Rabid Right seems to always be on the opposite
side from the American people.

I will agree with you that Southern Democrats, were the party of the KKK.
With one swift stroke of the pen, the Civil Rights Acts of the 60's changed all that.
What used to be Conservative Southern Democrats, in 10 years, became Conservative Southern
Republicans.  The last Dixi-Crat is long gone, replaced by Conservative Republicans.

You would think someone of Hillary's "high" moral character would issue a statement distancing themselves from it...after all, they expect that from GOP candidates.

Just a little overly dramatic, don't you think Boxy?

Yup, the GOP is always on the wrong side...I  guess the result of that is control of both houses of Congress.

HUH! You must have missed Hillary's view on the Confederate flag...
It's the same view she made very clear in 2007, and hasn't changed since:

Quoted Text
2007:  ~Hillary Clinton said she believed the Confederate flag should
be "removed from the Statehouse grounds" in part because "we should have
one flag that we all pay honor to, as I know that most people in South Carolina
do every single day."~
2015:  On Saturday, as the conversation swirled, Brian Fallon, the Clinton campaign's
press secretary, said the former presidential candidate's "position is unchanged from 2007."


Quoted Text
On Saturday, Clinton told an audience in San Francisco that the United States’ struggle with
race is not over, arguing that as “tempting” as it is to isolate the Charleston shooting as a
random event, “America’s long struggle with race is far from finished.”

“I know this is a difficult topic to talk about,” she said. “I know that so many of us hoped by
electing our first black President we had turned the page on this chapter in our history. I
know there are truths we don’t like to say out loud in discussions with our children, but we
have to. That is the only way we can possibly move forward together.”

I'm sure that the button sold well in the Deep south.
Who made them??? The State Dem Party?
The Clinton campaign?
The Republicans?

Anyone can make a campaign button, that says pretty much whatever they want it to:

David Duke
David Duke, a well-known white nationalist pundit, was openly involved in the leadership
of the Ku Klux Klan. He was founder and Grand Wizard of the Knights of the
Ku Klux Klan in the mid-1970s; he re-titled his position as "National Director" and said
that the KKK needed to "get out of the cow pasture and into hotel meeting rooms."

He claims to have left the organization in 1980. He ran for president in the 1988 Democratic
presidential primaries. In 1989 Duke switched political parties from Democrat to Republican.
In 1989, Duke became a member of the Louisiana State Legislature from the 81st district, and
was Republican Party chairman for St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana.
