I find it offensive as it's the flag of a country that for its entire existence was an enemy of the United States of America. I find it treasonous, and am perplexed why so many supposed conservatives glorify it.

Few people get as screamed at on these threads as I do for my utter contempt for the Confederacy as an organization.

However, it remains to be said that few people on earth ever fought so nobly and so often well-intentionedly for such a contemptible cause.

A man like Robert E. Lee was a tragic hero in the original sense of Greek tragedy - like Oedipus or Theseus. An individual of incredible character and talent who was undone by a single fatal flaw.

I’ve gotten myself in trouble too. I guess we’re just a couple of no-good Yankees.

You should see some of the posts I've endured in the past.

Or, stick around. I'm sure the perpetually aggrieved will be here shortly to insult us all.
