Thursday Short Cuts

Upright: “[The Confederate] flag represents what the Left believes is the last remaining Republican electoral stronghold in terms of presidential politics and that would be the South. … [I]t’s not going to stop with the Confederate flag because it’s not about the Confederate flag. It is about destroying the South as a political force. … I’ll make another prediction to you: The next flag that will come under assault — and it will not be long — is the American flag.” —Rush Limbaugh

Non Compos Mentis: “We need to put the American flag down. Because we’ve caught as much hell under that as the Confederate flag.” —Nation of Islam leader and race-baiter Louis Farrakhan

Village Idiots: “If the Confederate flag is finally going to be consigned to museums as an ugly symbol of racism, what about the beloved film offering the most iconic glimpse of that flag in American culture? I’m talking, of course, about ‘Gone with the Wind’… [W]hat does it say about us as a nation if we continue to embrace a movie that, in the final analysis, stands for many of the same things as the Confederate flag that flutters so dramatically over the dead and wounded soldiers at the Atlanta train station just before the ‘GWTW’ intermission?” —New York Post film critic Lou Lumenick

Good question: “Where you been, Hillary? It’s been 10 months, girl!” —Robert Nettles, a longtime friend of Michael Brown, when Hillary Clinton finally showed up in Ferguson this week

The BIG Lie: “You’re in my house.” —Barack Obama to a heckler (No, Obama’s in our house.)

Sums up the Obama administration: “I don’t believe anyone is personally responsible.” —OPM Director Katherine Archuleta on the Chinese hack of federal data

And last… “A new report shows that 35% of Hillary Clinton’s Twitter followers are fake. Yet, most of them are registered to vote for her in Chicago.” —Fred Thompson
