Cause I would rather fly the Confederate flag and honor Lee than fly the Union flag and honor Lincoln.
As mentioned numerous times already, symbols often transcend their original meaning (fair or not), and I can certainly understand why someone would be opposed to the Confederate flag -- regardless of its original meaning. To many, it has little or nothing to do with honouring Lee. And as such being opposed to the Confederate flag has nothing to do with supporting the Union flag.
