Dick Cheney was to attend the funeral of late SC Congressman Floyd Spence; however, Spence wished for his coffin to be draped with a Confederate flag and that Dixie be sung at the rites. The ritual was also televised in South Carolina, by local networks. These conditions were too much for our VP and he declined to attend unless the symbol and song be expunged from the ceremony. The family disgraced themselves by capitulating to this demand. Cheney, himself, showed a consummate lack of class by his actions and should have been told by the family to stay in DC or wherever he hides out these days. Gail Jarvis put this up on the Rockwell report of 6/23/03, "Cultural Cleansing of Southernners."

A very sad but true statement, Faust.

*I sang Dixie as he died The people just walked on by, as I cried The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride So I sang Dixie as he died
He said way down yonder in the land of cotton Old times there aint near as rotten as they are On this damned old L.A. street Then he drew a dying breath And laid his head against my chest Please Lord take his soul back home to Dixie
He said listen to me son while you still can Run back home to that Southern land Don't you see what life here has done to me? Then he closed those old blue eyes And fell limp against my side No more pain, now he's safe back home in Dixie
I sang Dixie as he died The people just walked on by as I cried The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride So I sang Dixie as he died I sang Dixie as he died*
