Here?s the guy who brought the Confederate flag to the White House yesterday: Michael Ashmore:
Since he links to ?Conservative Preppers? (survivalists) and a group called ?Redneckers,? I?m guessing he probably isn?t a liberal, planted to make conservatives look bad.

Often times, people like to falsely believe that the Confederate flag is somehow not offensive. As Jonathan Capehart of the Washington Post highlighted in his recent piece, it's akin to placing a swastika somewhere.
The Confederate flag symbolizes dehumanization, injustice and pain. It is a stark reminder of an era in our history that was defined by the abhorrent practice of slavery. And it is representative of a mentality that looked upon Blacks as inferiors who needed to remain in the shackles of subservience.

It was Cruz who proposed shutting down the government during the summer as a strategy to defund the ACA. Then in mid September Cruz's plan B proposal was to shutdown the military. This was reported by liberal and conservative media.
Don't kid me that Ted Cruz and his ilk cared about the dead soldiers burying the dead when they didn't give a hoot about the soldiers who are alive and in harms way. And now people try to pretend that Cruz's strategy didn't put us where we are. It is a ruthless insurgent strategy, similar to the Confederacy, designed to divide and conquer by whipping people into an hysterical frenzy.

?Veterans? ? basically Tea Partyers ? led by Palin and Cruz, marched today on the World War II memorial in Washington, DC, stole the National Park Service?s protective barriers, and then threw them at the White House.
This was intended to show their ire over the fact that the World War II memorial, along with every other federal land, site, office and program, was closed once the GOP shut down the federal government in the hopes of extorting the President into defunding health care reform, aka Obamacare, aka the Affordable Care Act.
The Tea Party ?vets,? led by Palin and Cruz, are apparently so outraged at themselves for shutting down the federal government, that they?re now protesting the President.
Point of fact: Neither Palin nor Cruz have actually served in the military, and both support the GOP government shutdown which closed the WWII memorial. But don?t let that get in the way of a good visual.
