    Sherman made the hard decision, to burn all but 400 of Atlanta's buildings, guaranteeing that Atlanta would not be recaptured and used as a supply hub.
    He got the idea from the Confederate Maj.gen. who torched the boxcars and ammo dump, on his way out of town in retreat.

    Show me a General with the guts to do that now.

    I read a limerick when I was about 9 years old. It said "If I was President of these United States, I'd eat up all the candy and swing on all the gates."

    Dunno who wrote it, too long to remember if it was attributed to anyone, but sounds good to me!

    Or - now that I think about it, maybe it's a little too close to what's actually happening. Yikes!

    Actually if you look at the deaths more yankees were killed than Southerners. The only reason the South lost was because they were an agriculture economy. Old Brett Butler got it correct!

    I don't know about you but???????

    You are a yankee CTB, you fool no one on this forum!

    Yea but you have no idea what the constitution even says. Your idea of treason is based on an extreme far left marxist ideology which is contrary to this country's founding and constitution.

    If anything is treason it is your world view.

    I always find it amazing when people on either side of the political fence throw around the word "treason."

    Stalin, isn't that the hero of the American left who slaughtered from 20-40,000,000 or more people while establishing the Soviet Union, including about 10,000,000 starved in the Ukraine?
