Pokerface - The houseband of the Second American Revolution

Nice band. But it's the Third American Revolution. We lost the Second One in 1865.

It was Robert E. Lee's fault. When the Army of N. Virginia could have gone into the mountains, converted into a guerrilla army and made the occupation and plunder of the free confederacy a monstrously difficult undertaking requiring decades, he chose to surrender at Appomattox instead. In his mind the "honorable discharge" upon the field of battle was the way the war had to be decided.

I guess it was the fault of the whole military tradition of the times. Neither the Vietnamese nor the Iraqis, on the other hand, are burdened with our martial traditions. They know how to run an insurgency.

I don't agree with your exact analysis because the south had no resources left at that time and what you recommend would've provided such horrible fighting. the people would've supported the geurilla fighters of the south and the northern troops would've taken it out on the people. and the south was defeated militarilly at that time when lee surrendered.

but Lee did make great mistakes at Gettysburgh. that cost them. the south did a fantastic job fighting the war, but the north had more men & resources by far - that is why they won.

Oh, I was being a bit glib. I think it's a damn shame the South lost, but I don't think there was any way the damn thing could have been won. It's taken my 30 years to come to the realization that Lincoln was a tyrant and the Southerners were really freedom fighters in the mold of the First Revolutionary War.

Damn public school mythology.
