Who the h*** cares what the NAACP wants?? It's time regular Americans stopped pandering to these hateful people.

In a thread about rewriting history, you cite rewritten lyrics of "Dixie." What you cite may have been sung during the war, but those aren't the words the author of the song wrote. Indeed, they are very far in meaning from the Ohio Yankee Dan Emmett's original sentimental song. They have been rewritten to support the Confederate cause. The implication is that the Confederates weren't opposed to rewriting song lyrics or history when it suited their interests.
