I had always thought it was the biggest surrender in American history. After what happened today and the lead up to it, I consider the way we are leaving Afghanistan to have surpassed it.

BTW, it is pretty neat place to visit if you haven’t done it yet.

What the Founding Fathers intended America to be died at Appomattox in April 1865. Today's perversion of a government can be directly traced back to the Union victory and the federal government's centralization of power.

Lincoln should have been hung for causing the Northern aggression on the South.

Appomattox wasn’t the largest surrender of the Civil War. Bennett Place in Durham, NC was.
