"The War of Northern Agression" And why, might I inquire, would that be so "stupid" to many of us who have VERY deep southern roots? I find a certain arrogance in your attitude that suggests to me you believe yourself, and the "north" in general, superior to we Southerners. Glad we Southerners could provide you with a you laugh.

I call it the Civil War, but have heard any variety of names, including the stupidest: The War of Northern Agression. A sister moved to Texas a few years ago, and we had a good laugh over the way southerners try to make it sound like they were not at fault for that bloody conflict.
