White House chief of staff, Kelly Has Some Revisionist Civil War History

Goes on fox news and changes History .. Lies


"lack of an ability to compromise led to the civil war," not slavery??

I will tell you that Robert E. Lee was an honorable man. He was a man that gave up his country to fight for his state, which, 150 years ago, was more important than country. (sprinkle in states rights )

And you guys are upset over a private church removing Jim Crow era plaque to Robert e lee and re locating it .. saying its removing History

But the POTUS Chief of Staff spewing debunked version of the civil war is ok?

Does this concern anyone ?

no not up set more embarrassed .. and just pointing it out or Information as you put it


you were so passionate about history you wrote " It may be that you're naïve to the subtle ways that history can be erased. Interpreting the narrative in ways that denigrate it or makes it out to be a lie destroys it's validity."

And as expected you have issues the with removal of Statues and plaques but no issues with revisionist view of that same history . why is that?
