The Nazis based their defeated dictatorship on race too.

I might be wrong, but ain't our current War on Terror race based, also?

BTW, I've been away for a few days; rallies to attend, sheets to wash and iron, things to burn, lynchings to assist in and the subsequent shallow graves to dig.......it's been really hectic but things are almost back to normal.

I've always maintained that considering his contribution in hastening the end to the war of Northern Aggression, Gen. W.T.Sherman should be on on the $50 bill.

Yep...however, I can lead you to some people who still carry the stories of their ancestors having to leach salt out of
burned down/pilfered smokehouses to survive.  They would put a bullet between your running lights for your "lauding" Sherman's "contribution" before they'd curse a black neighbor.

concur; memories of war certainly alters perceptions of history.
Thanks for the antidote.

Sherman was simply taking a more practical, accelerated approach to the Anaconda Plan instead of the slow bleed that was killing more civilians.

Sorta makes you wonder how many Alabama girls are named Zelda these days.

Bet not many, for which no doubt the Alabama girls are thankful.

Sniff. Up North, our tea is so bitter...

'Course, lemme put it like this: I'd rather watch the women on CMT than VH1 any day...

My friend just returned from a cruise of the Greek Islands. I have never heard her say one word denouncing people from the northeast and she certainly is not still fighting the Civil War. She are her family are originally mid westerners. She announced yesterday, in no uncertain terms, that Yankees are the rudest people on earth and she detests them. The cruise ship was full of them and they made a very bad impression on her. Face it, as a group, you folks are just rude.
