What a wretch.
His idiotic comments about the shooting are beyond the pale.. But as tho he felt he'd not let enough stupid fall out of his mouth:
He voted against opening debate about whether to remove the flag from the memorial on Tuesday.
"I think the misuse and the miseducation of the flag has pushed it to this point," he said then.
"Why do we let hate groups dictate how we feel and how we live?" he added. "Hate groups are everywhere. They're just mean people. We just found that out in Charleston."
You, sir, are who needs educating. That flag has stood for something since the day it was first carried by the army of northern Virginia 150 years ago. What it stood for then is what it still means to some now, your revisionist southern apologist history notwithstanding. Wondered who the moron was who voted not to debate. Now I know.
