“”Deo vindiced in 1865 at Appomattox.”

To your point of view, maybe.

I prefer to look at it as time out.

The spirit is admirable, but I really believe it turned out best for everybody, the South most of all. When a regime lasts only four years it's easy to romanticize and overlook faults, but I don't think long term rule by that Confederate gang upon the necks of southerners would have worn well for very long.
