Morning Glory Snip & Sam~

We sure can be thankful for the preservation of these historical journals . . . it honors those who fought so hard for what they believed in. Gen. Johnston was a soldier's general.

Morning w_over_w.

"To secede from the Union and set up another government would cause war. If you go to war with the United States, you will never conquer her, as she has the money and the men. If she does not whip you by guns, powder, and steel, she will starve you to death. It will take the flower of the country-the young men."

Sam Houston

Sadly, Houston turned out to be correct.

I hope the PC crowd today never succeeds in destroying the heritage of the South. They'll never realize it is also part of the heritage of the United States
