What I do not understand is why anyone who claims to oppose Marxism, would take a tack denouncing General Lee on the anniversary of his death, when most of us are deeply involved in trying to rescue America from the present descent into Marxist Socialism.
To most of us, an honorable Virginia gentleman, like Robert E. Lee, epitomizes the leadership we so sorely need today. We do not need a revival of the hated rhetoric of Karl Marx's pen pal, Thad Stevens. (See, for example, Civil War, Reconstruction & Creating Hate In America Today.)

I don’t understand it either. But it’s funny that these people use the exact same tactic that libs use when it comes to trying to discuss it with them.
YOU’RE RACIST! In their little minds, the only possible reason to argue that there were legitimate reasons that caused the WBTS that had nothing to do with slavery is racism.
It makes their heads explode when I point out the war could not possibly be about freedom when you consider the truth and the hypocrisy that by denying secession, the Union and Lincoln were denying FREEDOM. The lack of common sense necessary it takes to ignore those facts boggles the mind.
