I just don't buy people like you from the outset. With my almost ten-years of experience with these sites, I am very mistrusting of the motives of some of our posters. Especially, those who post anonymously. I believe you are an opinionated, self-righteous, bore and it pains me to have to moderate a site with people of your sort. Unfortunately, you are not alone on this message board. Believe me, I never have wanted to provide this message board, but I've had to because people tend to misuse our other sites to promote their personal views and belief, so I offer this site provide a "pressure relief" for the other sites.
I find your participation here especially interesting, since when you and Alan inappropriately posted opinion-based messages on the Georgia site, you immediately recoiled at the suggest you might come here to discuss your views, because this site was simply a site "... argue with politcally charged zealots on news and views about modern politics thinly disguised as "Civil War" discussion." So far, the politcally charged zealot discussing modern politics is YOU. That's is why I referred to you as a hypocrite and mistrusted your motives in posting on this site.
Of course, then again, maybe I all wrong about you. If so, please accept my sincerest and heart-felt apology.
