It’s Time To Blow Up Mount Rushmore

The violence in Charlottesville has renewed efforts by the Left to tear down all Confederate monuments.

The alt-right rally that took place over the weekend was premised on opposing the removal of a Robert E. Lee statue in the Virginia town. Now, with the notion that these site are magnets for neo-Nazis firmly planted in the minds of leftists, other monuments are being targeted for removal.

Seemingly to preempt any violent demonstrations, Lexington, Kentucky, announced Sunday that it was speeding up its removal of Confederate statues in the city.

On Monday, Durham, North Carolina let random demonstrators take a statue dedicated to boys who died fighting for the South. In a scene reminiscent of the Bolsheviks, a leftist mob pulled down the statue and then proceeded to kick it, spit on it and flip it off.

The article is hyperbole, but the left really -would- blow up Mt. Rushmore if they could.

Native-Americans (the present preferred vernacular) have been wanting to do this for years.

Robert E. Lee is probably one of the greatest military generals in history.  Lee was a top graduate of the United States Military Academy in 1829.He was an great engineer and tactician during the the Mexican-American War.He served honorably in the United States Army for 30 years. He served as Superintendent of the United States Military Academy. When Virginia broke from the Union in 1861, Lee chose to follow his home state, despite his desire for the country to remain intact and an offer of a senior Union command. While the Confederates did suffer severe shortages by mid-war, they never lost a battle because of a lack of guns, ammunition or other supplies. They did lose battles because of a lack of men, and a broken-down railway system made it difficult to move troops and materials to critical points. If England helped the Confederacy, the South would likely would have won the war.Lee and the other generals in the South deserve to have their statues.

At West Point, Lee was greatly influenced by the tactician Jomini. The military thinking of the day was influenced by Napoleon. These lessons learned from the "Great Corsican" were relayed through the writings of Antoine Henri Jomini..At West Point the first book Lee ever checked out was a study of Napoleons campaigns, one which he became very familiar with while at the academy which were based on Jomini. Dennis Mahan based much of his theories on Jomini at West Point.His son would be Alfred Thayer Mahan, the great naval tactician. Dennis Mahan would later commit suicide by jumping off a steamer ship on the Hudson River. He jumped on the paddlewheel end of the ship

No problem, Max.  Nothing makes sense anymore, and we're all in it together.

I hope that disc gets better today.
