Exactly.
And confederate soldiers are even classified as U.S. Veterans under the law.
Bravo. :clap:

I'll bet on the group that has trillions of bullets over the group that can't decide which bathroom to use any day of the week.
It really doesn't take me 50 hours to sniff out bullshit and propaganda.Have you listened to Limbaugh for more than 50 hours in the past 10 years?
I'm sure.Rush does not form my opinions.
'K. Let me know when this has to do with your alternate reality.To late to edit but speaking of alternate realties,
Yeah, I dig a Mad Max-like future too.I'll bet on the group that has trillions of bullets over the group that can't decide which bathroom to use any day of the week.
Traitors? What delusional history books are you reading?
President Lincoln wanted Robert E. Lee to be his commander of the Union Army of the Potomac. And he would have stayed. It's just that Virginia seceded from the Union. After the war ended, President Lincoln and later President Johnson and the Congress did not call the Confederate leaders, generals, and soldiers traitors or war criminals. Instead, Presidents Lincoln, Johnson and Grant took the "high road" and brought the defeated Southern States back into the Union no questions asked. ... " Because a house divided cannot stand" to quote Abraham Lincoln.
traitor
n.
One who betrays one's country, a cause, or a trust, especially one who commits treason.
Former presidents didn't use this term because they were smart politicians and as you yourself say, they took the high road. That doesn't mean the Confederates don't fit the definition.treason
n.
Violation of allegiance toward one's country or sovereign, especially the betrayal of one's country by waging war against it or by consciously and purposely acting to aid its enemies.

I'm digging this strawman you set up. You know what it has and hasn't listened to, you know how it feels about terms like 'alt-Left' and 'snowflake'. You even...You've never listened to him :1orglaugh
...ascribe it its own affiliations and delusions. No doubt your fantasy is populated by many such strawmen.One thing is for certain, I was told by people that live in your alternate universe that my health premiums and deductibles would be lowered.
Do you disagree with the definitions presented? Please be specific.Hey fellas, we actually have someone who can actually read the dictionary? For about 154 years after the Civil War, no scholar or historian has ever called Confederates traitors. We're so honored to have Rattrap here to be the first; to tell us the truth. :thumbsup: No. Just go back to the rock from whence you crawled out of.

Rush does not form my opinions.
He often echoes my opinions and observations which is always a blast. As is the case for this thread.
Too bad Rush can't post here.
I can only imagine the forces here lobbying to have him banned.
Don't have trillions but I posess thousands.I'll bet on the group that has trillions of bullets over the group that can't decide which bathroom to use any day of the week.
