I’m sorry, and I’m not trying to be a smart ass, but I don’t understand why you post the Civil War stuff every day on free republic a breaking news blog site and only one or two people at most respond.

Isn’t there a Civil War blog, website, forum that you can better engage with other like-minded Civil War buffs?

This is the platform I use for the original posts. I link from here to Civil War discussion groups on Twitter and Facebook.

FR is not just a breaking news site. I post on the General/Chat forum using the History topic. There are a whole bunch of topics to choose from there, from agriculture to poetry.

I know I don’t get a lot of replies but this is not twitter or facebook where you have to respond to everything you read with a like or a reply. There are quite a few readers on my ping list, which goes back to when I was posting about WWII.

Additionally, the internet is forever (providing I keep paying photobucket) and I am building a source that will be available for history buffs for years to come. Not to mention getting clicks for FR.

I appreciate these posts because it reminds all of us the danger of an aggressive, corrupt, out-of-touch, power hungry federal government.

And why we need to stand up for the original U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights, and the Declaration of Independence.

The blue state culture is bad now and has been since long before 1860.

I like his posts. It is kind of interesting that the New York Times were also liars in 1862 as well. They never really report the Union Army mishaps in 1862, and they had many.
