Confederate flags flown aboard the international space station and seemingly signed by a NASA astronaut showed up last week on the online auction site eBay... Read the rest... (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13301674/wid/11915829?GT1=8298)
Even if this is true, blacks can still be proud that they were there first. (http://www.negrospaceprogram.com/)

I'm not sure which part of this story I like better - the Confederate flag, or Leroy Chiao.

Indeed, wait till you see what Air Jordan can do once Moon Ball gets official recognition. Full court monster slam jam.
I think we should ban the American flag and design a new kinder and gentler flag for our country. After all, slavery existed far longer under the American flag than the Confederate flag. When I see the American flag, I think of genocide of American Indians (Jefferson Davis was appaled at how the Indians were treated after one battle) and slavery, not to mention the war crimes of William Tecumseh Sherman.

Come on, folks! Wise up.
I know there really isn't any such thing as the Space Station. Just like the Moon Walk, it's all being filmed on a sound stage in Hollywood.
The Astronauts we've "lost"? They are in the witness protection program, living on a tropical isle, drinking rum punch.

I think we should ban the American flag and design a new kinder and gentler flag for our country.Good idea. Here's are a few ideas.
The first comes to us from an outfit called the Unity Flag Society (http://unityflag.org)

This next wacky design is what happens whe Peter Max grabs a paint brush in the middle of a drug-induced euphoria -

Isn't this sweet? The World Unity Project (http://www.jefferson.k12.ky.us/Schools/High/Waggener/STLP/WUP/Celia.html/) held a contest in Louisville, Kentucky, inviting area children "to design a flag to symbolize unity among all people and countries of the world." The winner flag design is a "beautiful testament to the desire of these students to take an active role in creating a safer, more peaceful world." As this soulful poetic phrase puts it,
Even though tragedies happen, the sun rises and sets every day./
The sun makes no judgments and is there for everyone./
Everyone is equal in the sun's eyes.
If that doesn't make you want to eat paste and vomit crayons, I don't know what's wrong with you.

We were all there (http://www.sikhnet.com/s/911posters/). Of course, the Moslems were on the 95th floor of the World Trade Center buildings in the pilot's cockpit flying into the World Trade Center buildings.

Well, that's the best I can do without photoshop. Of course, the easiest one would be a simple white rectangle, the flag of surrender. That's really what they want, after all. Isn't it?
Well goodness they think the Southern Flag is so.... *GASP*horrible to be flying Anywhere esp up in space.
Hate to tell these perpetually offended twits but the Southern Flag is a symbol of Southern Heritage, NOT of slavery, as what was cited by another poster, the American flag flew over slaves in America far longer than the Southern Flag ever did.
Here's a few I think should fly up at the Space station (if not tacked up there on their walls somewhere):

and:

The Colors of the Confederacy...
and for measure:

And one more to show this is a flag of Southern Heritage no matter what the revisionists wish it to be otherwise...

So to those perpetually offended people, here's my Piece o mind to em.... :finger:
