Update: Giant Confederate flag on I-75 outside of Tampa [View all]

This used to be the flag greeting people driving down I-75 just outside of Tampa, FL:

Looks like it's been replaced by the more historically accurate Confederate flag:

Wonder if it's any coincidence that this is just in time for the rethug convention taking place in Tampa this summer? Wonder how many repukes will gaze upon this flag with wondrous admiration? Perhaps even a few might pull off the interstate, place their hands over their chests, and do a silent pledge of allegiance?
