> one of the greatest patriots this country ever produced
Hmm. A man who fought *against* this country for a cause he knew to be wrong. "Patriot?"
Put a sock in it.
If Stonewall Jackson had lived. You would be taking your hat off to Dixie before football games. God bless Robert E.Lee a great American.
Glad someone said it.
The cause he fought against was the Federal Government having complete control. Anyone who has read even the most biased of classroom history books knows that is why he joined the South. Anyone who still believes the Civil War was about slavery would probably believe every word Dan Rather has to say.
