Liberals have been itching to refight the Civil War for ages now. It’s amazing to me as someone who came of age at a time when we believed in forgiving each other and moving on into the present that it should come to this. There were thousands of decent soldiers both in the south and the north and as much as I like Grant, he was called a butcher - and by his own side on many occasions. Get over it, libs!

Grant was a butcher, his casualties at Spotsylvania & the Wilderness (not to mention the totally unnecessary affair at Cold Harbor) were atrocious.

Don’t even bother discussing history with libs—they will always add or take away from what really happened. Once a liar, always a liar.
