Lee was inept. The only reason his reputation as a "great general" survives is that he's part of that "lost cause" propaganda... to paint the South as something noble. Gettysburg, for example, is textbook shitty military foresight, planning, and execution... and totally at odds with what the South needed to do to win its independence.

What is this Cuck's record? Have the boys come marching home victorious from Afghanistan after we crushed the Taliban? I thought not.

At least Lee didn't write self-serving dribble to newspapers to advance his political career.

The invasion of the North was no different than Wallace's invasion of England. If you are going to win a war, you have to bring the war home to the enemy populace.
Sherman knew, this as well
