Lee/Jackson/King Day is without a doubt my favorite holiday. Purely Virginian.

I find it funny, provocative, ironic, inclusive and touching all at the same time.

Sorry, I wasn't clear.

To the WINNING side, the losers never have any heroes.

RE Lee was a traitor to them. They made his home into a cemetery, just to spite him.

In the South, heck, ALL of them are heroes.
