He called them (snort) racists....
ELM SPRINGS, Tenn. - Apr. 17 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- The Sons of Confederate Veterans, one of the oldest veterans organizations in the United States, have publicly challenged NBC's "Tonight Show" host Jay Leno over comments he recently made on the program.
In his monologue to open the April 10, 2007 'Tonight Show," Leno stated in reference to Don Imus, the talk radio host recently fired because of racist comments made on his program: "They say [Imus] is still working on raising funds for his favorite charity, the sons of the Confederacy (sic)."
"Sadly, this is a predictable statement made by someone who obviously doesn't know better," Sons of Confederate Veteran's Commander in Chief Christopher Sullivan said in reaction to Leno's comment. "Even though he is in front of millions of Americans every night, Jay Leno is a product of the same media system that has systematically attempted to equate the Confederate soldier with racism."
I'm really sorry about that beverage, and your monitor. That keyboard on the other hand was really due for replacement anyway, don'tcha think?
Equating Confederate soldiers with racism. What could Leno have been thinking? Or was it being compared to Imus that they were really upset about?
The SCV can protest that they're back to being a legitimate historic-preservation group when they kick Kirk Lyons mangy white-supremacist ass entirely out of the group and cut all associations with the Aryan Nations-loving slimeball, howzabout that for a deal? Then I can go back to just spewing snark at Jay Leno.

Why don't these "sons of the Confederacy" go and have a talk with their bros in the Klan. I mean, they ARE the one's who took the Confederate Battle flag for their symbol.
