Of course it’s a lie. The Union fought the South because the South went to war against the north.

What I dont get is why ANY self respecting Conservative wishes that DEMOCRATS had won the civil war.

That is some serious cognitive dissonance there

They kicked them out of a fortress on their own territory. While it certainly merited a forceful response, sending a 35,000 man invasion force was not it.

It certainly wasn't worth the loss of life it eventually caused.
