There's video of the Confederate flag waving Lee Zeldin - Paladino people

Hey, remember those Tea Party idiots supporting Lee Zeldin and Carl Paladino that were waving confederate flags and acting like goons outside that Brian Foley Rally on Saturday? Well, there's video of that now.

Hearing those words with the video of these people blatantly trying to intimidate folks at the "Women for Foley" rally really hits home on what I wrote about yesterday. These people are not exactly hiding what they want and what they are all about. It's up to us to stand up to these bullies and to stand for what we believe in.

Patchoguer at the Zeldin Retort puts it this way:

I don't know about you but I don't want to raise my children in South Carolina. I don't want my kids surrounded by folks who glorify Confederate traitors. That's not who we are here in Long Island. Those people do not represent what makes this place such a great place to raise a family.

Cuomo is exactly right about this. It's time to stand up to these people.

I think it's also worth noting that it's plainly obvious that the Lee Zeldin campaign bus is right there with these people, front and center. That kinda makes Lee Zeldin's half hearted "condemnation" of the Hulk Hogan impersonating crotch grabber confederate flag waver ring a bit hollow.

These people aren't lying when they tell us exactly what they want to do and what they want to do doesn't represent the vast majority of people in SD-3, or in New York across the country. These people are extremists. They are fringe.

But they could win if we don't stand up to them.

I don't know about you, but that's exactly what I plan to do. How about you?

I grew up on Strong Island (0.00 / 0)
I grew up in Central Brookhaven in the late 1970s and I remember a lot of Confederate flags on the backends of Caminos and Mustangs in the parking lot of the Smith Haven Mall.

I haven't been back that way since my folks moved out ten years ago, but I can't imagine it's changed all that much.
