“No thanks. I choose to be a patriot like Reagan, NOT a traitor like Lee.”

You choose to speak ill of one of the greatest of Americans for your own reasons, not to be like Reagan.

Have you ever been to Gettysburg? Have you been to any Civil War battlefield? You really should make the effort to recalibrate your attitude.

The Civil War was fought by Americans - on both sides. To learn about Lee - like soldiers from around the world do to this day - is to learn about the greatness of America and her greatest citizens.

You just do not understand the Civil War or Lee - and hence you can’t understand America. Hardly Reaganesque.

Fine, you can hate Lee if you wish, but it’s not something that you should be unashamed of and so willing to broadcast to the world.

I know about the Civil War and what role the traitor Robert E.Lee played in it. This is all about exposing revisionists like you and holding accountable the actions of one of the the most infamous figures in American history. There is nothing great about Lee. He trampled on the Constitution and his behavior was a disgrace to the USA. A shameful and despicable individual. The fact his family home was turned into America's national memorial cemetery, says it all and punctuates his treason for all to see.
