Robert E Lee The Great Emancipator

[L Verge]

While I still have plenty more that I could say to certain contributors to this thread, I am withdrawing with one final thought: What started out as a thoughtful and educational posting on an American leader (and icon to many) turned into yet another repetitive diatribe against slavery and slaveholders by certain contributors. To me, it is another example of why wounds will never heal in our country while such darts continue to be thrown at a 150-year-old bull's-eye instead of working to bring people together to fight today's problems.
