The roles were reversed in 1861.
The Republicans were Liberals in that time period.
So your point is what?

Defending the U.S. Constitution has always been the core mission of the Republican Party, from 1854 to today, against traitors during the Civil War and during the War on Terror.

Although they had been confined inside Fort Sumter for more than three months, unsupplied and poorly nourished, the men of the Union garrison vigorously defended their post from the Confederate bombardment that began on the morning of April 12, 1861. Several times, red-hod cannonballs had lodged in the fort's wooden barracks and started fires. But each time, the Yankee soldiers, with a little help from an evening rainstorm, had extinguished the flames.

Can you imagine it? All Americans can agree to respect the bravery and courage of U.S. soldiers in the face of this attack.

[TexConfederate1861]

Not so. And I will thank you to keep your ugly comments about my ancestors to yourself. Defending one’s right to property and self-government isn’t treason.

[ontap]

Rather twisted logic, who were the traitors during the Revolutionary war. One mans traitor is another mans hero.

Absolutely. Anderson was a brave son of the South as well.
