I visited their website once; I concluded they are kooks. All of which is irrelevant. I have more respect for R. E. Lee et al. than for any of the major political figures of the late 1850s and early 1860s, Mr. Lincoln most certainly included.

To condemn as worthless 'losers' Gen'l Lee et al. because their side lost the war in which they fought sets an interesting and disturbing precedent. I live fairly close to Washington, DC. Please direct me to the Embassy of the Republic of Vietnam. I'd like to visit, pay my respects to the ambassador. I've a little problem, though. My nice ADC map doesn't show it. Perhaps you can help me out, here?

Did President Lincoln deserve to be shot?

'Et al' meaning you support the slave holders vice non-slave holders, I suppose.

You might need a bigger boat.
