What a great day for America that will be.

Hillary Badass Clinton.

Someone our brave men and women in uniform can really look up to as their Commander in Chief.
Right, Putin's witless shill playing his doormat to the Oval Office as Commander in Chief.
Can a Russian become Secretary of Defense?

I still see support for the display of the Confederate battleflag as I travel the region here. I don't know if this equates to Trump supporters, but it does equate to a certain lack of empathy and historical awareness. Some see these folks as symbolic of Trump's "deplorable" sector of support, due to display at some Trump rallies and David Duke's endorsement.

And the Republicans keep trying to slip an amendment into the Zika funding bill that would allow the Confederate battle flag to be flown at veterans' cemeteries.

And defunding Planned Parenthood, of course.

The Stars and Bars might be appropriate if Johnny Reb's bones lie below.

Furthermore, the Republicans are already developing strategy to target vulnerable senators (red states) in the 2018 election. Even talking about a super majority in the senate.

We do have a Confederate cemetery section nearby, Lt Col John Pelham is interred there.

I wonder how many Johnny Rebs, a.k.a. traitors, are buried in veterans' cemeteries. And it's not called the Stars and Bars, it's called the Confederate Navy Jack.
