Cole Blasts Protestors Who Waved Confederate Flags

Rep. Tom Cole (R-OK) ripped protesters in Oklahoma who greeted President Obama in Oklahoma City by waving Confederate flags, The Hill reports.

Said Cole: “Their actions were not only disappointing but incredibly disrespectful, insensitive and embarrassing to the entire state. The unacceptable behavior displayed by these individuals certainly does not reflect the values and views of the vast majority of Oklahomans. No president should ever be confronted by such behavior, especially when the purpose of the visit was meant to celebrate and recognize some of our state’s greatest achievements.”
