    So few of those soldiers gave a crap about slavery.

    Dying for something you don't give a crap about isn't honorable either.

    He's correct on that. Most people on both sides didn't give a damn about slavery. They were thinking about and fighting over entirely other things. Southerners thought they were fighting the Second American Revolution and Northerners thought they were fighting to hold the Union together, and it remained that way all the way through the war.

    I declare that any thread even tangentially related to the Civil War will inevitably devolve into Muad and a handful of backers against a group of equally vocal people is inevitable.

    I shall call this Muadwin's Law. :cylon:

    Somehow, whenever KIRK tries to insult someone, I always end up feeling like I'm watching the bowling finals at the Special Olympics.

    We may be down 1-0 at Halftime, but I think we'll win it in the second half.

    Well but only because this time the North will join up with the South to take on Washington DC together.

    I doubt that. Red states and blue states are as divided now as they were then. The blues are for Obama. At least he's down to a 41% approval rating.

    He'd better hurry and escalate that war in Libya so his approval ratings will recover. I don't think any president ever has recovered from < 39% without a war.

    yes, it's like a view into the past! A bit of history - so we better delete everything lest it offends anybody. :drama:
