Been awhile since I’ve seen the southhaters.. trying to remember the one that stood out the most up until a couple of years ago. I believe he was zotted, but can’t remember his name :p

Rockingham: "Lee’s generalship is subject to criticism in recent years for the high casualties he repeatedly incurred by going on the tactical offensive against prepared Union lines.
Eventually, the South was bled dry and exhausted."

wardaddy to Rockingham: "Wow

Sorry, wardaddy, but there are no "south haters" here, only you North haters.
Rockingham merely pointed out factually that Lee was too aggressive and so used up his men at a rate faster than the Confederacy could replace.

By the way, you might remember another great Virginia general who fully understood his own limitations and played his cards exactly right all the way to ultimate victory.
What was his name?
Oh, yeh, I remember: George Washington.

He merely pointed out facts and wasn’t ‘South bashing’. Lee may have been brilliant but he did have failings.

Lee won most battles where he occupied the high ground in a defensive position and lost most the battles where he was attacking an entrenched Union force that had the high ground.

And there was a mythology built up around Lee. Many placed the blame for the disastrous defeat at Gettysburg not on Lee, but Longstreet because of it.

Just a suggestion, but you might want to hold your fire and wait for people who make nasty derogatory statements about your heroes.
