Rebel Yell.

This here's a YouTube video showin' a 1938 reunion of Confederate and Yankee soldiers on the field of Gettysburg:

Now, here's a litte question for Ben DeGrow and the othah no-account neocons (and damn fool libruls) who 'r vexed over All Things Confederate: why do ye suppose these men cud get together in such a spirit of civility, if not chivalry?

I'd like to hear from ye in my commints box, Ben DeGrow.

Why d' ye 'spose U.S. Grant happily tolerated the playin' of "Dixie" at this here event?   Or why do ye 'spose that Grant was so magnanimous at Lee's surrender at Appomattox?  Or why Lee defended Grant when one of his feller professers at Washington College made a deerogtoree comment 'bout Grant?

How unlike the Politically Correct Grant wuz.  And among the ranks of the Politically Correct I include so-called conservatives like you.  *Especially* conservatives like you, since y'all should know better.

'L, anyway, it's said that the Yankees in that YouTube video got chills done they spine when that Reb feller did the Rebel Yell.  Y'all oughter still be gittin' chills.

The Northern conservatives of the 21st century surely ain't like the Northern conservatives of the 19th and early to mid-20th.  More like damn fool libruls, I'd say.
