I AM AN OUTSIDER. I don't have a horse in this race. I am an AMERICAN so I do have a horse pulling the wagon.
I am angry, worse, I am furious, that this particular issue EXISTS. It is not worth a war, I don't want to argue the rights and wrongs of it, I have an opinion, based on what I consider common decency that says YOU DON'T FLY THE REBEL FLAG AND CALL YOURSELF AN AMERICAN PATRIOT. PERIOD. PATRIOTS DO NOT CELEBRATE THE THE LOST REBELLION.
This editorial is a quiet, reasoned argument saying the same thing, and it comes out of South Carolina.
