Knowing what we do about history and the tendency for the victors of any war to color history in a slanted way, it is a good point that Krugmans shallow views of Lee and Grant are another instance of a state approved propaganda rag( NYT) trying to put forward some bad history. Remember when the NYT supproted the Bush invansions of Iraq? think that was just another accident.

We are now involved in wars in at least 4 countries(Iraq,Af, Pakistan and Lybia)...the Obama administration has provided left cover for entry into even more wars as the military industrial complex tumor is still rapidly expanding in this country.

Enjoy your feeling of superiority for being a northerner who loves his official state propaganda. You deserve it. I bet some of your best friends are black and you could teach those racist southerners so much. You are awesome and smart.
