[Sherman Logan]

Not exactly.

He resigned his commission rather than wage war against his State and family.

He was then faced with a dilemma of whether to serve his State, which was faced with invasion.

To my mind, Lee’s choice was every bit as honorable as that of George Thomas, who chose to remain loyal to the Union when faced with the identical dilemma. Each was faced with a conflict of loyalties, where “treason” against one or the other of those loyalties could be avoided only by refusing to fight for either side.

It seems likely that some of those faced with such a choice made it for less than fully honorable reasons, but I believe Thomas and Lee acted with complete honor.

He swore an oath as a commissioned officer of the United States Army to defend his country against all enemies foreign and domestic, not just the state of Virgina. He was a traitor and quite frankly I've had more than enough of people venerating this slave owning treasonous son of a b!tch who is directly responsible for the deaths of some 660,000 Americans. He didn't walk on water,he wasn't a saint. He was a minimally competent military strategist who in the end lost a war he and his ilk started. The Civil War ended one hundred and fifty years ago and here's a news flash: The South lost.
