"And every time I see complete, utter nonsense about the legality of secession or the racism of Abraham Lincoln
and the rest of the long list of crap spouted on FR by neo-confederate crazies, I will refute them with the historical record."

The rewriting of history to bolster the PC position is not crap.
And I have seen plenty of "historical record" that backs up both positions on this subject.
Rooting out the truth is a significant part of what FR is all about.

BTW, I happen to be born a Yankee. The same with most of my family.
I also had relatives on both sides of the conflict.
I find this an interesting and relevent subject, but I'm hardly a "neo-confederate crazie"
-in spite of the fact that I question the "official" version. (And I've seen plenty of reason to do just that.)

Good grief.

Well, I am not going to go into a long disertation with you over that on this thread. It will all pop up again on the next "CSA pure as the driven snow" thread.
