Uh, About Those Clinton Confederate Flag Campaign Buttons? Two Can Play This Game
Right wing bloggers are having a huge outrage party over the discovery of some old campaign buttons created by supporters of Hillary Clinton that feature a Confederate flag. Breitbart “News” hack Joel Pollak is a good example: HILLARY CLINTON CONFEDERATE FLAG MERCHANDISE SURFACES ON EBAY!
In 2007, Hillary Clinton commented on the Confederate flag in South Carolina, saying that she “personally would like to see it removed from the Statehouse grounds.” She has not been asked about the flag in the present context.
Meanwhile, however, as GOP presidential candidate Rand Paul announces his sudden opinion that the Confederate flag belongs in a museum… has anyone asked Rand about these 2016 campaign buttons for sale by a supporter on Zazzle?
We demand that Rand be asked!
And by the way, has anyone ever asked Rand’s father Ron how he feels about the Confederate flag?
So Rand Paul came out against the Confederate flag. Wonder what his dad thinks about that? http://t.co/rzHG3NQokP pic.twitter.com/t0MkEeJP6B

We also demand that somebody immediately ask John McCain and Sarah Palin about this campaign button!
