We need more men like him than ever today.

Good men who advocated for the value of public service, dedication to their neighbors and fellow people and their states being strong over a centralized federal gov't.

God bless General Robert E. Lee. Too many people don't understand that before the Civil War, each individual state was perceived as its own sovereign, self-determining territory in an alliance with the other states of the Union similar to the EU in Europe. The safety of his native Virginia was threatened when autocrats in the North desired to reduce the power of the individual states into subservient vassels dependent on a behemothic Federal Government, and he took up arms to defend his countrymen from unjust Northern aggression, but alas we continue to experience the consequences of his failure now that the Federal Government has grown into a monster that actively works to undermine the privacy and civil liberties of the American people.

Robert E. Lee defended the true ideals of our Founding Fathers; they never would have supported the authoritarian hegemony that traitor Abraham Lincoln sacrificed hundreds of thousands of American lives to create.

I hope General Lee never stops protecting New Orleans from the Northern invasion. They desperately need him in that lawless city.

You could almost argue that this country was forever ruined when the South lost the war.

If nato or the UN insists that we stop third trimester abortion the USA would respect the Union, right?

Our president is a Muslim.

The way Lincoln shite all over the constitution was one of the most depressing things about that war. It really set a precedent for future american presidents to follow. He acted and governed like a tyrant.

We're not a super power.

That's all I'm saying. We're a bunch of bleeding vaginas bleeding all over everything and everyone.
