Lee was one of very few who simply cannot be faulted,
another Washington, but for a failed and flawed cause;
a man deserving of his own holiday as much as ANY other.
The cause was not flawed....the rights and freedom and Constitutional government desired was overridden by a repressive industrial North...and the South was itself enslaved for a hundred years and even in part to this day...
The CAUSE is dimmed by big government ...not failed
THAT is what these people can't see. Well put.
