I think we all have seen how the mainstream media treats any discussion on the 'Late Unpleasantness." In the last two years we've seen a lot of the nasty things the media can do. It's not getting better, it's going downhill. I don't care how many years Hale said she's been an expert or what credentials she said she has, the Prof belongs at the nuthouse schools like Berkley, Columbia, Harvard, ----. It is really bad that she's associated with anything in Virginia. I must say I was sort of surprised at that. I gotta say, no, can't say it cause it's not CW related but I was going to say I wonder if she is friends with some in congress who are showing their ignorance on a regular basis? At some point one has to wonder 'how many flaming libs does it take to write a history report?' There's a lot of em and they refuse to even have a civil discussion on anything much less the Civil War. When they won't even look at the Official Record, you know they aren't really wanting to know any facts. They like to stir pots too much.
