E-mail Fallout from Today's LRC Piece

This will be a post that I'm going to have more fun with than I've had in quite a while.  For this will be a catalog of all of the hate mail I receive in regards to this morning's article on LRC.

First up:
WWR,  US Army SF ret. real southerner in Florida:

I thing you are a wimp. Most of her family and husband have had it with her , maybe you and goofy Mike in Tokyo should adopt her. I read Lew's site for the gems in the trash and you are in the trash.

My reply:

WWR,
That's nice.  And, if I may ask, what exactly am I being a wimp about?  If I've got my history correct didn't real southerners fight for self-determination and against occpuation by a foreign power?  If so, then how can you call yourself one when you're supporting a war that's doing exactly that in Iraq?

I think it's kind of funny that a transplanted Yankee like myself has to make such a simple point to a 'real southerner.' 

And, by the way, I think I already have adopted her, or are you illiterate along with being disengenuous.

Check back throughout the day.... the roasting will continue.  Promise.

Update: 9:43am :  WWR has responded again.... this speaks for itself.

You would be better off reading Soldier of Fortune for your information. Oh and just how does - soon to be ex Mrs. Sheehan make a living or eat? welfare, donations, Hanoi Jane ? I have friends in Iraq and others deploying soon, I will also if I can find someway to help. I do not support our stupid policy in Iraq or the world, we should have killed all the men over 12 and impregnated all the females so in one generation Iraq would be fun of malls, sex shops, and fast food places - now that would be a pretty good place to live. I have time to write stupid replies because I am retired and not young and healthy anymore. I have been to 11 dirty, nasty 3rd world countries and they all have bad people in charge. Where have you been, and what have you done? The 7th Calvary, part of the 3rd ID in 2003 Iraq made the longest Calvary charge in history (300miles) now that is something to write about! WWR

So WWR writes again. More drivel. Amazing that he calls himself a real southerner. I have lived here all my life and find that true southerners are men of God and try to emulate Robert E. Lee. Looks like you are more in line with Sherman. Lincoln would be proud. Kill innocent civilians and rape women. You are a filthy human. It wasn't a calvary charge.. it was a cavalry charge. Where has he been and what has he done? Do you measure your deeds by the places you have been? I'd better book a flight now! Southerner.. right. You bring shame to the title.

Palmetto,

First things first,
Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate it.

Second, it is because of the great example set by Lee and his compatriots that I can only refer to myself as being 'in-training.'

I can only hope to one day I'll be able to graduate.

Thanks again and be well.

Ta,
