Against Outside Agitators, For Huckabee!
By As a follow-up to d Farley, I see that a “pro-heritage” group has placed ads in favor of Huckabee and against McCain and Romney. (The former can’t be happy; you flip-flop on the acceptability of the state displaying swastikas Confederate flags to straight-talkingly pander to morons and you can’t get any credit!) In fairness, I think Yglesias is being a little reductive about this unbroken tradition dating all the way back to 1962. Really, the flag is just as much a symbol of lawlessness in defense of apartheid as treason in defense of slavery.
