Before you debate you need to get some perspective by reading more on the subject.
"History...Read it." Is not "correct". Only statements of fact can be correct. Since it is not a statement of fact, it is neither wrong nor correct. It was, however, snide. How you choose to conduct yourself is your choice, but it reflects poorly on you.
I couldn't agree with you more. There's a whole lot of revisionism going on on this thread. These people hate success and most hate America. You'll never get them to see beyond their hate filled reading glasses.
