If you wave a Confederate flag, doesn't that make you anti-American?

My political instincts tell me that if I told a wingnut the logical inconsistency between Confederate flags and patriotism, I'd be marginalized as a smart ass, and that'd be that. Or they'd say, "Hey, my buddy Jimmy fought in Iraq, and he waves the Confederate Flag. Are you accusing him of being anti-American??"

HOW DO YOU GET THROUGH TO THESE PEOPLE??

The challenge in answering that question is the reason I listen to Michael Savage, Rush Limbaugh, and Sean Hannity.
