Today's Fake PC History makes Confederate plates a touchy issue for Perry

But which Flag?

Can't have confederate plates, can't have dead white men, can't have presidents who owned slaves, can't name teams after Indians, can't call Indians Indians...
It's worse than going to Church, school, to see parents and their church friends. The stupid paternalism of politicians and their do-gooder minions should be told where to go!
This fake issue could be reminiscent of the damn fool Confederate Flag issue in South Carolina where the capped toothed phony Sen. Ernest Hollings denounced the Confederate Flag flying on the South Carolina grounds. "Fritz" Hollings and the media both conveniently forgot that the SC Confederate Flag at the Capital started under Holling's approval when that phony was Governor.
Then there was the phony Senator Carol Moseley-Braun, who's fiancé was an outlandishly paid lobbyist for Nigeria, out of no where, had a sudden inspiration to make an issue of Congressional renewal of a federal patent for the insignia of the United Daughters of the Confederacy -- which featured the first national flag of the Confederacy encased in a wreath . Posters and Placards sprang out of no-where protesting the issue... Mirabile visu.
