“Except he wasn’t “our” greatest general”
This will be a hard pill for you to swallow, but swallow it you must.
Lee and Lee’s Legacy are American. More American than you and any legacy that you are likely to leave.
Every Confederate soldier is seen in the eyes of American History, and as a matter of law, as American Soldiers.
So if you are putting “our” in quotes, then you are sitting on the outside of America, looking in. You’ve got lots of company, so you won’t be lonely, but you and all your “America deniers” are just wrong.
You are so wrong, you should make reservations at “The Red Hen” to be with your fellow comrades and THEN take a 1/4 mile stroll to Lee’s burial place. Maybe you will learn something. Maybe not.

Yep - he’s as American as Iva D’Aquino, Benedict Arnold, the Rosenbergs, or Jane Fonda. He abrogated the oath he took as a United States Army officer and took up arms against what was once his nation. Traitor - period.
