"I'll tell you what, put your fingers back in your ears, go "la la la la" real loud and it will be just like I did go away from your fantasy world where only you and those who agree with you get to express an idea."

Why don't you get your head out of your behind and spit a couple of times just so you can breath better? Then you can actually read some of my posts without a clouded brain. Like Alan said people have preconceived notions you are one of them.

No one is arguing that by the numbers the South was not at a disadvantage. What the South lacked in men and material they made up for in fighting spirit and in a lot of cases leadership.

The Anaconda plan starved the south of much need food, materials and medicine. History also proves this.
