He fought modern, total war. The South was poorly prepared to fight, but long on bombast.

Oh, and just so you know — My ancestor fought in the 1st Ssouth Carolina Inf and the 25th South Carolina Inf. Captured at the Battle of Weldon Railroad (Petersburg) and spent the remainder of the war as a guest at Point Lookout.

I can not believe that educated Americans can and will hold a grudge for somewthing that happened 150 or so years ago.

When are you going to let go? Just curious.

Who the hell is carrying a grudge? You are the one that’s running your credits. Personally, I don’t give a shit if you fought the war yourself. I was just correcting the error of history and the glorification of murderers. I wouldn’t let anyone talk about Hitler being a real good guy who was just trying to rebuild Germany without speaking up, either. History has a way of getting twisted. Sherman was a psychotic mass murderering, sick SOB.

You don’t want to start questioning someone’s education based on this, really, do you?
