Speaking of propaganda you changed my words.

Show where I misquoted you, as opposed to lampooning your selfseriousness and high-horse references to slavery (again).

You guys are always harping on slavery and trying to play it as a moral card that indicts everyone who has ever lived in the South. Well, surprise, Sunshine! Because I was born in Indiana ..... and I believed the lies for years, until I was about 20 and the pennies began to drop, that something wasn't quite right in the liberal propaganda Case Against the South.

There's the Whole Truth, then there's the Operative Truth, and then there's All the Truth I Need to Get Your Money. Guess which kind we've been getting in the schoolroom.

You changed the words. End of story.

BTW I too was born in Indiana and I live in Virginia. A number of my ancestors were born and raised in South Carolina just prior to the Revolution. Through the years they were driven out of their home country (as attested by the Treaty of Paris) because they objected to slavery.

They ended up in Indiana ~ refugees from slavers.

I have no doubt they were proud as punch their children and grandchildren were able to return and blow the slavers to kingdom come, burn their houses, torch their fields, free their slaves......

You people who think you have all the answers about "why the war happened" forget that it was different for different people.

You can go fight your war ~ this one is over and the right people lost it fair and square.

You changed my words.

I didn't make the claim that you said I made.
