Your lies are easy to expose.

Really? Why don't you expose a couple, or better, post links to where you exposed and refuted them?

I remember the Fort Davis brouhaha -- I didn't post an opinion because I didn't have one, and because you guys know much more about it. But my memory serves up recollections of your insistence that the Texans showed cowardice -- you say stuff like that a lot -- and in short you displayed a great deal of hostile animus toward Texans generally on thin evidence.

No doubt the California columns faced considerable difficulties in operating far from any amenable bases; but you denied the same recognition to the Confederates operating in that theater, and insisted on trying to affix a badge of cowardly dishonor on them.

That's a pretty brash particularism to display in this forum, given the provenience of the couple living in the White House. Perhaps you're willing to give President Bush a pass, in consideration of his Yankee blood and New England education, and of the manorial ways of his family. But Laura Bush is 100% Texas girl, and there isn't an inch of her that is fake about anything. Yet you trash Texans with a ferocity approaching personal fetish.

Now, you can entertain any sort of crotchet you like, capitan, but when by the same token you deny other people the right to hold their own POV and try to belittle and even criminalize it as you and Rant-Boy Espinola habitually do with your rhetoric and his violent imagery of Southerners being killed in battle or dragged off to prison, then it's fair to ask whether you've got anyone's best interests at heart. You and Espinola have posted about enough of that "Reconstruction didn't go far enough/Get a rope" stuff.

Pounding on GOPcapitalist and trying to get him banned -- your and Espinola's garbage about "KIA's" is, like a burlesque danseuse's outfit, both tacky and revealing -- doesn't do anything for your POV or the website. It just exhibits a determination on your part to eliminate unassimilable POV's that can't be reconciled with your agenda of defending from the claims of history the author of the Civil War.

That this is the case can be shown by your lumping us all in together as The Enemy, notwithstanding that I have several important differences of opinion with these Southerners. That all disappears when you and Espinola begin your warmed-over William Lloyd Garrison act and begin trashing the Southern contingent over regional differences which you haven't been cautious enough to refrain from pointing out that you consider grossly revealing of Southern intellectual incapacity and cultural inferiority. You display your arraunt when you do, and you show up yourself more than the people you vilify.
