How do you explain your shift - the interview with Kelly that you did not hear

[malaise]

Why Kelly our asses were exposed. It was racist terrorism but we took our cue from Rupert Murderer and Fox re teh war on Christians . Sadly our talking point collapsed after those two Twitter sleuths found his website. Then they found out we were taking money from the CCC aka KKK. So you see I Blanche Dubois had to cover my ass and so do all other ReTHUGs so my position changed. Take down that flag - forget what I said two days ago.

1. That about sums it up.

Although, unlike the rest of the ratfugging pack, Lindsey actually seemed sincere, like he really did have a change of heart...and did you see that guy--the former "Southern Avenger" or something--on Chris Hayes? It was unbelievable!

And maybe it is just that: unbelievable. But I had hope for a couple of minutes, so that's something.*

*progress on the flag anyway; anything else? Probably not.

2. Yes I saw him

I watch and listen with interest. Sadly I'm very cynical so I'll continue to watch and listen to see who is sincere in six months

3. I always wonder

Was there some focus group meeting that came up with that talking point? Isn't really remarkable how multiple right-wing sources all start floating the same BS? Or is it some sort of hive-mind thing?

4. Of course there is - they have very clear message discipline and

thus talking points.

What is particularly funny this time is that the son of one of the biggest segregationists, Sen. Paul Thurmond,
exposed even Nikki Haley with his statement on taking down the flag

so I put down my drink and wrote it on a cocktail napkin. And that's why I feel strongly about it today.'
