They are both at the http://theobamadiary.com/2013/10/13/a-tweet-or-two-12/
link in the OP. Anyway, these are the clowns we have to deal with in about a year in the midterm elections (or in a month for some of us that have local elections). In addition to the KKK symbolism of waving the Confederate flag in front of a black family's residence, I am incensed with someone waving both the Marine Corps flag (or any armed services flag) with the Confederate flag -- I thought the U.S. armed forces beat the slavers about 150 years ago (for example, Gettysburg was 150 years and 3 months ago). During the war, a total of 148 U.S. marines were killed in action, while 312 more died from other causes.

Hope the below doesn't offend, or maybe I should hope it does offend -- if it galvanizes us to extra efforts to get people to the polls, make sure they can vote and all that.
