Probably a mole used the Confederate flag to make marchers look bad.

The Confederate flag raising yesterday may be the final straw for a lot of people. [View all]
I know a few staunch GOPers who said they were just sickened by what they saw and heard yesterday at the WH. One has even said she will no longer vote for any Republican, anywhere, at any time. She say the GOP House leaders give Christianity a bad name and that they violate everything she was taught and believes about Christianity and the teachings of Jesus Christ. Two other friends one male and one female said they just hate Cruz more than they dislike the President. The last two watched the President speak for the last two times he has given pressers and interviews. They were impressed. I guess they never watched him before?

2. yea that flag was a really stupid move on their part to allow it
Only a Nazi flag would have been worse. It really turns off we non-racists.
Scratch a leftist, find a Fascist.

7. Nazi flag would not have been worse
(except to those WWII vets who fought against the Germans). They could partially explain away a Nazi flag as saying that, "Obama is a Nazi" for not negotiating with Congress, or some such bullcrap.
But there's no way to explain away the Confederate Flag. There is no way to associate the Confederate Flag with Obama in any way whatsoever. That Confederate Flag forces them to own that flag and its meaning, which -- in the light of the shutdown -- is just that we have a black man in the white house.

Apparently the RW blogs are now screaming that Democrats have started "fund-raising" off the above photo (from the Washington Post today - Jonathan Capehart I believe). Goldie Taylor went ballistic on Martin's show because the guy is also waving the Marine flag (and she is a retired Marine).
But for the GOP/teabagger nation, this guy is their hero.

32. I'm sorry, but I still believe that about 90% of Republicans are racists because too many of them
remain silent and/or continue to support a party that remain silent while their leaders spout racist rhetoric or push racist public policies.
Republicans = Racist. Uh, you got many racists too and many are hard core racists.

For the record, THE Confederate Flag is not in any of the photos above.

Yep.
That's the Confederate BATTLE flag.
But only a racist Rethuglican would know that. :wink:

Longish hair, beard and TEE-shirt that says "special"......screams liberal DUmmie to me.

Kind of my take.
There were several cases of that happening at various rallies.
I suspect the idiot was escorted away right after the news got their money shot.

What a bunch of horseshit.

Thousands of men and women were there and the only thing the buffoons at the DUmp can focus on is the one jackass with the "Kick Me" sign.

And not a moment before.

The Mexican flags I saw at the immigration rally on the National mall last week offend me more than the confederate flag ever has.

It was probably a liberal plant. I've seen them do this before.

How about Obama's new avatar for Twitter? This is actually a photoshopped one, but the left half of the pic is the real avatar.

But it's just a flag, ya know, a piece of cloth.

That's my guess. Until proven wrong, I'm not buying that he was a Marine, either.

He's either an Occupier or an Alex Jones devotee.
Same thing.

So one guy with a flag is a "flag raising"? Like they run it up the pole over the Capitol Building or something.
What a bunch of hysterical idiots. This isn't even on anyone's radar outside Moonbatsylvania.

If you're going to shit on something in public, at least have pride in your work and hit your target.

Sorry, but that is a democRAT organization.

You know how to tell the queers at a democrat KuKluxKlan rally....they're the ones in the pastel colored sheets.

I read some of that yesterday. Some idiot said "This is waaaaay worse than flying a Nazi flag!" Then posted a TL/DR blah blah blah.
As for the "last straw" thing, I don't hear anybody talking about this in real life. You DUmbasses sit in your asylum screaming at each other, but it doesn't translate well outside.

Goldie Taylor went ballistic on Martin's show because the guy is also waving the Marine flag (and she is a retired Marine).
Taylor was born in University City, Missouri, but raised in East St. Louis, Illinois. Her father was murdered on November 5, 1973 when she was 5, leaving her mother Mary to raise her and her siblings alone. She attended public schools in the metro St. Louis area before moving to Atlanta and graduating from Cross Keys High School in 1986. Taylor was an active duty US Marine trained in Public Affairs Broadcasting at Fort Benjamin Harrison, Indiana. She received an honorable discharge on medical grounds. Taylor then gained admission to Emory University in Atlanta where she studied Political Science and International Affairs.
I'm not normally one to question service members, but having seen what we call "shammers" many, many f'n times, I find this highly suspect. There are people that game the system all the damn time and, from my experience, it's normally the same type of usual suspects.

I don't know about now but pregnancy would have been enough to get her discharged 50 years ago.

I see a mexican kid (I think) in that pic to the right of the flag. :lmao:

She was born in '68. She volunteered for her first political campaign in '93. She was 25. Then she went on to do all this shit:
Volunteering for her first political campaign in 1993, Taylor worked as an unpaid deputy press secretary for Michael Lomax’s Atlanta mayoral campaign. In the time since, she has worked as a communications director, field organizer and media consultant for various political candidates at the local, state and federal level. She retired as a consultant in 2009 after serving as Director of Communications for then state senator M. Kasim Reed. Reed was sworn in as Mayor of Atlanta in January 2010. Prior to retiring from politics, Taylor considered running for public office twice, qualifying for 4th District Congress in Georgia in 1996.

It's expressly prohibited to engage in such activities while on active duty. So again I ask, how the hell did this bitch retire from the USMC?

Med board? She is a DUmmy, so I could see here hopping the disability gravy train.
As for the DUmmy who thinks some random guy holding a CBF is going to cause a mass exodus from the right, all I have to ask is where would those people go? To the side that waves Soviet flags and wears Che shirts? Umm... no.

Not just on MSNBC. That's what was broadcast over all the other MSM channels. Part of their agenda to destroy conservatives.

I doubt the person is a Marine. Probably a fake.

Oh, yeah. Must have been an agent provocateur.
There were bigger nuts in the crowd than that guy.

The lefties have a habit of planting fakes just for a photo op.

I must admit, that's a might fine idea. :whistling:

So how do you go about finding someone you only have a picture of? Look at the way he's holding the flag, the expression on his face? He's just standing there, he's not part of the crowd. Seriously, if he is legitimately there, then fine but if not he should be exposed.
