KY MD DE and MO all had legal widespread slavery during the 4 years of the Civil War. Around 400,000 slaved combined in the 4 states. How could the CW possibly be about slavery then???

The idea that the CW was about slavery is not just wrong, it's absurd. But most americans have been brainwashed into believing it.

Let me add that when the war started, even washington DC practiced legal slavery. Yes - the capital of the North. They did end it midway thru the war.

The Battle Flag of the Confederacy was not "The Confederate Flag". It never flew over a "Slave Ship" as did the US Flag. And it has NEVER stood as a standard of Racism. The assertion that it did, rests entirely in IGNORANCE.

Since 2009 the history of our nation and the traditions, values, and mores of us as a once-united people have suddenly become suspect as if we've been doing everything ass-backwards for the last 239 years.

What has changed? :dunno:

Could it be the semi-Negro on the woodpile?

Nope. It's racist right wingers who just can't accept a black president, and the total loss of integrity by the GOP

It's remarkable that anyone is truly this stupid.

If you're saying my assertion is false, then YOU are the stupid one. Do some research.

Given the OP, of course, it comes as no surprise you truly are this stupid.
 
You can make all the fancy arguments you want for displaying the Confederate flag, and in fact maybe some of that argument is valid,

but unfortunately for you people,

the Confederate flag has been hijacked by the white supremacists and the various other incarnations of race hatred.

It is theirs now, and that is what the public perception will mostly be.

The fact that 4 slave states did not secede because of slavery doesn't change the fact that 11 did.

I agree with you. Many on the Right seem to be lacking the capacity to reason.

Based upon what?

Now as a person who implies themself to be 'reasonable', it falls to you to produce the reason you applied in coming to that conclusion.

And yes... the point of this exercise is to demonstrate that you lack the means to reason, thus the basis for your irrational, would-be conclusion.

We can accept a black president, why, we can even accept one that really IS black, not just a slim margine of black.
That black that will get the acceptance however will have to be one that is a non-socialist POS thats only intent is to destroy the United States. And I suspect that that American Black President that is supported by the right will not be married to a transvestite that thinks that its ok for the average person to live on less that 40k a year while he/she flies around the world on lavish taxpayer funded vacations.
But, you keep thinking what you want. If you and yours ever actually get the U.S to a place that you think is good, You are going to be in a very bad postion when you realize there is nobody left to pay for your lifestyle.

The problem with socialism is that sooner or later you run out of other peoples money
 
Oh, and on a lighter note, how funny is it when one of USMB's premiere racists starts a thread to tell us how not-racist something is?

lol
I'm the anti-racist. YOU are the racist since you support affirmative action, the govt mandated discrimination of white males and the biggest hate crime in america.
