“Anyone calling Robert E. Lee a ‘traitor’ has shit for brains”

Article 3, Section 3 of the constitution makes it very clear. Levying war against the United States is treason.

Lookee here n00b, you can spout off that crap until the cows come home, but the fact is that General Robert E. Lee never was, and is not today, a "traitor", unless you consider the preservation of his home on the Virginia side of the Potomac to be a further act of 'treason', and here is another fun fact for you to chew on while you're rubbing one out tonight as you call the epitome of a Southern gentleman, warrior and scholar a 'traitor':

On April 9, 1865, after learning of Lee's surrender to Union forces at Appomattox, President Lincoln directed the military band that was present at what could have been a crowing over the defeat of the South, to play 'Dixie' to honor the Southern soldiers who had died.

Now why don't you show some class, like Lee and Lincoln did, instead of continuing your South-hating jihad?
