Keith, I saw him last night on The Chris Matthews Show and thought the exact same thing. Number One turned 2 me and she said "how ignorant can he be?" I told her, it's not ignorance, but rather, his unwillingness 2 acknowledge what he knows the Civil War was about. Talking about Virginia did not want 2 fight against their own country men, but some how, they joined the confederacy and found it o.k. 2 fight against the union. go figure.

I turned to my wife and said, "I have dealt with men like him all my life, which is why I no longer waste time dealing with men like him". If they can't get the basic humanity, the basic morality they love to quote from the Bible, of how wrong this is, there's little chance in changing their minds. All one can do in such cases is fight them with power ,and worry about attitude later.
