Which is why I'm not a confed general fanboi and why I have a bit of grudging respect for men like burnside and hooker who were attempting the much more difficult task, despite having greater resources.

I'm not a confed fanboi for entirely different reasons.  Mostly because what they were doing was wrong.  Similar to why I'm not a Nazi fanboi or Charles Manson fanboi.

You have fanbois of Stonewall, Lee, Forrest and mew the slaveholding kitteh that don't support any of the objectives of the confederacy. Way to miss the point (check out the bolded bit in my quote).

Fuck you, you Nazi confederatard.  There's a reason you'll find rebel flags at neo-Nazi rallys.  And vice-versa.

I see 3rd Reich, Confed Battle Flag and Stars and Stripes in that pic. What does that prove?

One can admire Braxton Bragg's campaigns and the finer points of Dorsey Pender's division command without supporting slavery.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

That the Stars and Stripes is the only legally and morally valid flag in that pic.

No. No you can't.

Let us try again. One can admire Rommel's or Yamamoto's skill as commanders without supporting the holocaust or the east asian co-prosperity sphere.

Nope.  Nein. No-sankyu.

The girl in the foreground might be worth a few "Sieg heils".
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

They seem to be trying to wear those flags.  Maybe they are just really poor and that's the only fabric they could find.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

How dare you insult a Cavalier of the South? Why his big boned progeny will rule the new South from their orbital southern space stations. miu.

I will have more to say when I return from my HOMELESS VISION QUEST TO NOWHERE.

I don't think it's any sort of Nazi symbol.  Looks like a lion or something similar to me.  But I don't care for tats in general.

Anyways, needs implants.
