Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsTFG's ridiculous statement about Robert E. Lee "winning" in Afghanistan begs the question:
His Orangeness had command of the military for four straight years. He boasted of knowing more than the generals, of being "a stable genius."
So how come he didn't win the war himself?
Quick answer: he's an incompetent loser.
We here all know that, but I wish the MSM would hit this point more often.

You know, the racist, neo-confederate, KKK, christo-fascist crowd. Facts dont matter as long as he strokes their egos and stirs up violence.
