... Vilification of that battle flag and the Confederacy is part of the cultural revolution in America that flowered half a century ago. Among its goals was the demoralization of the American people by demonizing their past and poisoning their belief in their own history ... And how is the Republican Party standing up to this cultural lynch mob? Retreating and running as fast as possible.

Where would we be without Pat. And it's one of the few times Human Events has come up with something noteworthy since it went full-bore PC.

I guess even a broken clock is right twice a day. I gotta dig up those interviews where pat defends the epa, says we needed it to protect the environment and the other one where he gets all huffy defending the official story of 9/11, insisting that his "good friend" dick cheney would never be involved, essentially threatening to hang up if the host (Dr. Kevin Barrett) didntt move on to more polite topics.

Also be sure to watch his interview with rep larry mcdonald, where pat & some other greasy neocon scoff & belittle larry as he warns of world govt. Its very vile. Larrysgone, soon after that, but patty had a good long "career" peddling books.

If I recall his running mate was a black woman named ezola foster, she used to appear at the same events as barb coe & terry anderson & george putnam at the jeffers estate. Tom jeffers had a fancy spread in la canada, calif & he hosted all sorts of republican events. In '06 I saw him at alex jones 9/ 11 confab in L.A. & I snapped a picture of him there, forever tying every one of those establishment bastards to 9/11 truth. Lol! Remember all that, pr?

Sorry, but when I had my political "awakening" I developed a knack for finding good reasons not to support almost anyone. This was part of teaching folks that their hero g w bush was not a conservative but was in actuality a big govt socialist abortionist warmonger, and on top of that, a satanist terrorist.

This article by pat is spot on. I used to use pat as an example to dumb neocon Catholics that no, not everyone against these undeclared jew wars was a dirty commie hippie lefist.

I have "NEVER" owned a confederate flag in the past but definitely intend to obtain a very large one for my picture window that is about 35 or 40 feet from a State highway.
Maybe Obama will do for confederate flags what he has accomplished for firearms !

If we are to preserve our republic, future generations are going to need what that battle flag truly stands for: pride in our history and defiance in the face of the arrogance of power.

Amen.

I believe he's already done it.

Martin, nobody on the planet passes the Patriot Purity Test. Pat fails in multiple ways but had we elected him illegals and NAFTA wouldn't be a problem.

I do remember Ezola Foster. Tom Jeffers had a very nice home. I had been there several times. Even remember meeting up with LA radio talk show host, George Putnam. God I miss that show especially when caller "Freddy" would call in. Freddy would make my day when he called in to put in his two cents.
