Hey, Oliver, you treasonous moronic asshole: You're "history" ended at the Appomattox Courthouse on April 9, 1865. Fuck you, and fuck the Confederacy.

Will take the default GOP position here and totally dismiss the issue since it doesn't affect me personally. Oh yeah and "hopes and prayers", I guess.

You can always tell which articles are by Doktor Zoom; they're the ones that give you a smile of recognition when the wit takes you higher.

Lincoln wanted to peacefully reincorporate all of the confederacy back into the USA. Then some confederate asshole murdered him and threw the entire plan into the trash heap of history and put a crazy mother fucker in charge of the government back then. A four year war from 152 years ago that still divides us today?

Humans...you just can't make this shit up.

The war is not over; it's never been over; and Putin and Sessions make me think they're going to win after all. Destroy from within, like a slow-growing parasite, and it'll be Mission Accomplished.
