Tim Kaine wants to remove ALL Confederate Memorials from ALL federal property. This would mean tearing down monuments and memorials at battle fields such as Gettysburg and Sharpsburg. He says he will join with Sen. Cory Booker, a New Jersey Democrat, to introduce legislation to remove Confederate statutes from the Capitol, including the memorial to Robert E Lee placed by the citizens of Virginia.
Corey Stewart is not going to let that happen. He will fight to protect and preserve ALL of Virginia’s history.
Send Tim Kaine packing in November and save our monuments! Vote Corey Stewart for Senate.
I sure would feel bad if the SOB got hit by a Mack Truck.
ReplyDeleteThat's a painless death, I believe there is a better way, say Death by 1,000 Cuts.....? :)
DeleteDon't forget the brine to pour on those cuts.
DeleteForgot......:)
DeleteNot only brine Bogside, sulfur dioxide too!
ReplyDeleteCongress passed legislation during the reconstruction period that all Confederate veterans we're and are entitled to the same benefits as those afforded to Union veterans.
ReplyDeleteTechnically under this legislation ever Confederate soldier buried in a Federal cemetary would at the very least have to have their marker removed.
If there is anyone that deserves to have "unknown" on their tombstone it's Tim Kaine. And the sooner the better.

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely.

55. ...On they come, with the old swinging route step and swaying battle flags. In the van, the proud Confederate ensign. Before us in proud humiliation stood the embodiment of manhood; men whom neither toils and sufferings, nor the fact of death could bend from their resolve; standing before us now, thin, worn, and famished, but erect, and with eyes looking level into ours, waking memories that bound us together as no other bond; was not such manhood to be welcomed back into a Union so tested and assured? On our part not a sound of trumpet more, nor roll of drum; not a cheer, nor word, nor whisper or vain-glorying, nor motion of man, but an awed stillness rather, and breath-holding, as if it were the passing of the dead!
-Col. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, (Confederate surrender at Appomattox

I believe that was 1958.
