Let me ask you a question Walt, go back to the last Presidential election and pretend just for a moment that the U.S. split into two sides because of the Election fiasco. One side is Bush supporters the other side Gore supporters, the next thing you know there's a war. Which side is right, which side is wrong? Which side is Traitor, which side is Patriot? You know what it doesn't even matter because the winner will alway's rewrite history regardless of the facts, that's just the way it is and I just get pissed when P.C. nutcase's continually assault our heritage & history. They're changing history and haven't even fought anyone yet or is that exactly what they're doing now? Assaulting us, fighting us and finally conquering us. I got news for you America is next, Old Glory is the next target and some of ya'll can't even see it happening.

They are blind, that's why.

For any one side to be "right" to disavow the outcome of an election., you'd have to show intolerable abuse of the system.

The problem for the "heritage" defenders is that in 1860, there had been no such abuse. The rebels tried to break up the government -they- had controlled for decades simply because a free election, held in accordance with the rules agreed to by all, had not gone the way they wanted.

You need to think about that, and -then- see if you can consider Lee, Jackson, or -any- of the rebels as heroes. If you do consider the real events in their proper context, you won't call Lee a hero any more.

Walt
