Where there are posts of darkness crying out for the truth, I'll be there.
Why did the United States go to war against the seceding states of the south?
I am going to go out on a limb and say it was because the South started it by bombarding Sumter. I think I read that somewhere.
Now the question is why did the South secede in the first place? The reason for that is to defend their institution of slavery from what they saw as a threat from the Republican administration. I read that somewhere too.
Grant was a drunk but a wiley one, that is also a factual assertion. You know this, but just had to embellish. Why is that? Emotion again.
Not emotion, curiosity. If Grant was such a slobbering drunk then how did he manage to defeat every general the Confederacy sent against him. How did he manage to capture three whole armies in the field? How did he maneuver his armies in the West in ways that still amaze military historians? What with him being a drunk and all.
Even the “Grant was a drunk” crap is more leftist lost cause drivel.
I’m just observing the truth, Grant was a drunk. Obviously a high-functioning one, but still a drunk. So was Winston Churchill. Does that factual observation send you into a tizzy of defensive rationalization? If not, why not?
