Hi Don,
I do agree with the above dictionary definition. I didn't mean to make people mad I though my answer was accurate. I won't use the term insurgent since it causes offense. Maybe we can meet on the pre mentioned forum where I can learn what a "modified govt" is. The CW was first and formost a political war has you know and also more Americans sided with the Union then the CSA including maybe 20% or so of Southern men both Black and White who enlisted in the Union Army. Therefore I am not alone in my opinions but I want to get the CSA side of the political struggle a struggle that still continues albit not quite the way it did back in the day. So if we can engage on the forum that Mr. Martin mentioned in a respectfull way I would appreciate it.

Respectfully Yours,
Leonard
