Pre-Inauguration Stuff

Non-Sequitur:


On another note, the rural white folk in the Old South are not happy about the fact that Obama won.

Point 1, which applies to 4/12/1865 as well as 11/4/2008: We won. You lost. Get over it.

Point 2: George Bush never governed as anything other than the president of those who voted for him. He had no interest in doing anything that did not, first and foremost, benefit his base. You have no right to complain.

Point 3:
In an Administration that is headed by an African-American, tacking up a Confederate battle flag to your garage is going to be viewed as being as offensive as it would if the new President was Jewish and you had a Nazi flag displayed. The Confederate flag is associated with the cause of slavery, whether you like it or not. The Confederate flag was embraced in the 1950s and 1960s by the segregationist racists, which is when the confederate flag was added to a number of Southern state flags.

Spare me the rationalizations why that is not so, for they are all bullshit. Grow up and take the fucking flags down.

    These fuckups are never going to grow up. They are petulant children living in a hallucinatory world of fantasy. Their hateful minds are irredeemably poisoned by racism, misogyny, and theocracy. The only thing we can hope for is that they never ever ever gain access to political power ever again.
