Isn't if funny how anecdotal information is ONLY believable if it supports the liberal cause?

Case in point: the “evidence” of blacks fighting for the Confederacy is exactly the same as the evidence of blacks fighting on the American side in the American revolution. Yet the part about the American Revolution is taught as “truth” while the part about the Confederacy is derided.

My opinion is that they are probably both true in essence, the numbers in each case exaggerated depending on your point of view.

....blacks fighting on the American side in the American revolution.

Wasn't that an episode of Daniel Boone.
