“So, basically you are saying. Some people think Lee was an honorable gentlemen, some think he was a traitor, so basically it’s just an opinion.”

Both of those are your opinions! You do know you have advocated both positions don't you? These two opinions are in conflict; they are not compatible. That is why I'm pointing these things out to you.

I'm starting to think there may be a problem here that I'm ill-equipped to address.

You are definitely right, you cannot be both an honorable gentleman and a traitor. I have to agree with you.

Since Lee definitely met the test for being a traitor as outlined in Article III, Section 3 of the US Constitution (levying war against the United States), I am force to conclude that he was not an honorable gentleman.

Does that clear up my position?
