"As long as we're on the subject of history, how about an expose of the old canard that Confederate soldiers were brave?"

Have at it. I, too, would be interested to see just how an underfed, ill-equipped army of cowards staved off Lincoln's invading juggernaut for four years. I would also be interested to know how the war would have turned out if the armies of the South stopped being cowards and took their vengeance out on the civilian population like Sherman did in his march to the sea. Yeah, they don't make brave soldiers like that anymore.

I am not one to disparage the bravery and skill of the armies of the South but they only kept the Slaveocracy in power for three years not four. Its military leaders were brilliant (some of the most brilliant in history) there political leadership were almost universally idiots.

Home field advantage.

Should we be nice to the Taliban too?
