Gone With The Wind

Listen to the Neo-Confederates at The Corner wail about a supposed tragedy:

HISTORY LOST [Jim Robbins]

Katrina destroyed Confederate President Jefferson Davis' final home Beavoir. It was also the site of the Jefferson Davis Presidential Library. This is a significant loss to history.

Yeah, a real tragedy. Like the destruction of one of Saddam's palaces or Mussolini's summer home.

I'm more saddened by the collapse of an Office Depot than the thrashing of a shrine to the leader of a terrorist nation who was complicit in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans - and even more southerners. Too bad Jeffy Dave wasn't alive when it happened.
