You do realize that CounterPunch and Huffington Post would say precisely the sames things about Nathan Bedford Forrest and the Confederacy as you do.

Actually, they've moved on.

They would accuse Lincoln and Seward of being "part of the same hypocrisy."

They would probably characterize Forrest as being a victim of his own environment, and an inevitable product of America's capitalist system.

You see, for postmodern leftists - as well as for racial determinists - there are no absolute standards of right and wrong.

Leftists often say "there is no absolute right or wrong" when it comes to matters related to sexual morality. However, these self-styled moral relativists suddenly become moral absolutists when it comes to condemning "racism". As do many watered down Republicans who have adopted their own form of political correctness and try to outdo the Left in accusing their political opponents of "racism."
