There seems to be a great obsession about the civil war. How bout battle of New Orleans statues or war of 1812 statues? The civil war sits in our souls because southerners are in a unique place, for Americans, of being defeated and losing a war.
But it not only was a war our forefathers lost but they were wrong. Tuff pill to swallow. Other countries don't have statues revereing Generals from lost wars. Memorials for the dead, yes.
