Don't kid yourself, we've got Americans today as great as these two men. It's just a lot harder to hear about them. Thanks to the lamestream media!!!!

Amen brother! The days of Americans being born with "the bark on" are long past. I truly pity the kids of tomorrow.

Though I disagree with the southern cause, I hold Lee in very high esteem. He was a rare and wonderful man. I'm so pleased I have a son who shares his birthdate today!
