It was because he favored the British over the French as President isn't it?

Though all this dissembling on how the CSA is an enemy opens up the nomination to Grant, Sherman, Sheridan and Thomas.

There is no dissembling here.  People in the Civil War are not under consideration, because both sides were Americans.

Treasonous rebels in armed insurrection against the lawful government and constitution of the Uniteds states do not get to count as foes of america?

If that's the case, then Cromwell is the greatest enemy the English had ever encountered, because he beat their asses.

  I've no idea to be honest.  We've got statues of Gandhi and Nehru too.  And Smuts who wasn't always terribly pro-British.

Cromwell was God's Englishman.  He beat the treasonous rebels against the English constitution.  Prince Rupert wasn't good enough to make the top 5

Gah.

Why not just accept that, for whatever reason, the topic here is the non-Civil War enemies of America? 

That discussion is about as interesting as one on the non-decepticon enemies of Optimus Prime.

Heh, you are one of the all-Civil-War-all-the-time fanbois?

Fuck you mongers, have me siding with Timmay and Viking in a thread.

I dunno, he managed to kill a shitload of Chinamen, something a lot of other better generals never had the opportunity to do.

A better (hell, even competent) general in his place would have killed a fuckton more, and not have had MacArthur's butcher's bill.

Because they know fuck-all about American military history barring the ACW?

Nominate who you think has been the US's greatest opponent who's lead an army in the field against America.

Douglas MacArthur.

Well he crushed the hell out of the Bonus Army.

No, I am one of the "the CSA counts as one of the enemies of the USA"'tards.

Washington led a treasonous army against his King.

Why is Osama a legit pick, but Lee isn't?
