South Carolina Lt. Gov. Glenn McConnell announced today that he won't run for reelection so that he can become president of the College of Charleston. He'd make an awesome college president, since he's an alum of Charleston, and really smart, and very much in touch with Southern Heritage, especially with his warm embrace of the Confederacy and his experience running a store -- "CSA Galleries" -- that sold Confederate flags and other Johnny Reb tchotchkes. As a state senator, he was one of the leading defenders of keeping the Confederate flag flying from the Capitol building, because it's about heritage, not hate. And in the late 1990s, he insisted that giving up symbols of the Old South would be a form of "cultural genocide," one of the shibboleths of the

My coworker (not a southroner and fairly liberal) did the bend-over-backwards bit of &quot;not necessarily&quot; because <i>heritage</i>. I didn&#039;t budge and never do with stars&amp;bars. &quot;I guarentee you that that man is in some way racist&quot; I said of the man behind the wheel. &quot;You want heritage, fly a state flag; fly a college logo; slap a state slogan on that back window; put up a sticker of a great nat. park or beach or geologic feature of your fav southron state. But you choose to fly stars&amp;bars, you are making an overt statement of racism.&quot;
So <i>am</i> I too quick to judge on this issue?
This guy doesn&#039;t get that while he may not be like the other ones, he puts a smiley bland face on the attitude that allows the &quot;other ones&quot; to creep into public service.
I don&#039;t know if that makes sense to anyone.

It was all about the dress uniforms and hoop skirts with 6 petticoats. Never you mind who helped you put then on.
Apparently, he is a successful retailer of traitor paraphernalia.

&quot;Heritage&quot; means &quot;traitors who lost&quot; in southern lingo.
