This whole post is stated perfectly.
Thank you!
Our Country has suffered from not acknowledging his stature. Along with others in our not too distant past.
But up until fairly recently, the country did acknowledge his stature. Then the liberals and professional victims got a hold of things, and now, everything Southern in general (and Confederate in particular) must be torn down and destroyed.
I don't want to go back to 1860. But I will not stand for the slanders that pass for the "history" of the South these days. I'm proud of who I am and where I'm from, and no pointy-headed liberal "intellectual" is going to take that heritage away from me.
