Confederate Memorial at Arlington will be removed despite GOP opposition
Though dozens of congressional Republicans protested the move, the Army says it will begin work in coming days

The U.S. Army intends to remove a Confederate memorial from Arlington National Cemetery next week as part of its ongoing work to rid Defense Department property of divisive rebel imagery, defying dozens of congressional Republicans who have vociferously protested the move.





Why would Republicans object to the removal of Confederate monuments if the Confederates were Democrats???

Stupid democrat Taliban. Just can't handle American history.

Next they'll be erecting statues to perverts and deviants.

Watching Republicans get infuriated over the removal of statues of Democrats doesn't stop being amusing.

Just goes to prove the fact that they were the CONSERVATIVES of the time.

Their rhetoric is exactly the same today as it was back then.

If you think tearing down statues is winning, you're one weak mofo

I am used to it, now, but still think it pointless and stupid to be tearing down statues that reflect history somebody doesn't like.

The same reason Germans are the most Anti-Nazi people in Europe.

I don't use the 'C'-word lightly, but historically, it's what communists do.

 

[whitehall]

Once again lefties celebrate erasing history.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

You're the one letting a statue give you the the jeebs. Don't like it don't look at it you ya sissy

I'm not crying about it. I'm used to you assholes supporting it. It's statue... causing you inconsolable grief. Why? Does it butthurt you?

Nah you're just blabbering like a left loon

Just more along the lines of he that controls the present, controls the past and he that controls the past, controls the future, or so they think. But it is really about making sure nobody thinks about it much. Whether it is like communists, it probably is, but I figure this has been done is spates throughout history and in countries long before communism, so the communist thing in this case does not bother me as much as the repeated stupidity.

That's Confederate history you dumb Bingo. Their soldiers killed American soldiers. It's about time we put the Confederacy in its proper place.

kaz is British why the fuck would he know?

Because its part of American history and someone's "art".

Maybe you'd prefer one of druggie Hunter's paintings there?
