There is a long tradition of all Americans honoring both North and South.

I have not seen much honoring of the South among non-Southerners in my lifetime.

I could say the same concerning the North from the Southerners around here.

I believe that the legislation to make Arlington House a national park service monument (Arlington House was Lee’s home) was introduced by a U.S. Rep. from Ohio. In my mind, that is significant and is in the spirit of Lincoln.

Well I’m a northerner and as a teen I enjoyed reading about the fine Virginian, Robert E. Lee. My uncle also from the North in NYC named his son Robert for similar reasons.

And for some odd reason he likes country music too.

We all respect and honor Robert E. Lee as the finest of Americans who felt he was defending Virginia.

That’s because up north here, the kids get lies in school and no one at home knows better.

There are none so blind as those who will not see.
