" Tear Down This WALL "

BAD NEWS !! (for floggers)

The Name Shall Continue !

CONTINUOUS is the key word !

I gotta admit I was worried.

The family tree shakes out this way !

All my cousins with the Tatum Name are girls.

My son was the last one with the Tatum name.

He told me a while back he could not father children.

Yep, I thought the family name would end.

(at least JC Tatum's Branch)

Well God has blessed me with wonderful news, Twin Boys !

THANK YOU GOD !!

Same Old Same Old ?

 Professors Call For Ban of US Flag on College Campuses

Hmmm...banning a flag because someone claims it's "racist" and because it might "offend" somebody... sounds vaguely familiar... WHERE have we heard that before...?!?!?!

For all those who sit quietly by while they continue to attack, remove, and censor Confederate flags, on the SAME FALSE PRETENSES... the chickens have come home to roost...

http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2015/03/11/professors-us-flag-symbolizes-racism-should-not-be-displayed-on-campus/#

"A group of university professors has signed a letter showing their solidarity with students who tried to ban the American flag at the University of California, Irvine – because they said Old Glory contributes to racism."

Are YOU mad enough yet?

RETURN the flags!

RESTORE the honor!

Yep it's more of the same old same old, Left wing Ya-Hoo's
trying to homogenize the Planet.
I'm offended by this !
 Just because I'm a decedent of a Confederate Soldier
doesn't mean I'm not an
American.

I love the American Flag, I also love the CBF.

I guess it's like I said many times before--

"Take any flag you want, put it any place you want, and somebody is gonna have a problem with it!"

UPDATE !!!

One of the local Sheriffs has had ENOUGH !

Atta Boy Sheriff ! 

WITH MALICE TOWARD NONE ?

"Largest mass hanging in United States history"

38 Santee "Sioux" Indian men

Mankato, Minnesota, Dec. 16, 1862
( Hung for hunting off the reservation ?)

SAINT PAUL, December 27, 1862. The PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES:

 I have the honor to inform you that the thirty-eight Indians and half-breeds ordered by you for execution were hung yesterday at Mankato at 10 a.m. Everything went off quietly and the other prisoners are well secured. 

Respectfully, H. H. SIBLEY, Brigadier-General.

 "With malice toward none, with charity for all," (?)

During the Lincoln-Douglas debates in 1858 Lincoln said:

I have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and black races. There is a physical difference between the two, which, in my judgment, will probably forever forbid their living together upon the footing of perfect equality; and inasmuch as it becomes a necessity that there must be a difference, I, as well as Judge Douglas, am in favor of the race to which I belong having the superior position. I have never said anything to the contrary.

Lincoln in his speech to Charleston, Illinois, 1858

"I am not now, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social or political equality of the white and black races. I am not now nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor of intermarriages with white people. There is a physical difference between the white and the black races which will forever forbid the two races living together on social or political equality. There must be a position of superior and inferior, and I am in favor of assigning the superior position to the white man."

(June 26, 1857)

 "Let us be brought to believe it is morally right, and, at the same time, favorable to, or, at least, not against, our interest, to transfer the African to his native clime, and we shall find a way to do it, however great the task may be. The children of Israel, to such numbers as to include four hundred thousand fighting men, went out of Egyptian bondage in a body."

"Oh Abe we hardly knew ya "

Well at the least, we were not given the whole truth.

NO THANKS, I GOT A BOOK !

One of my recent posts had gotten me a lot of comments.
It was this one
The Charlottesville Sweep

95 % of them just got rejected.
Name calling, and Comments by "Shadow People" just went "POOF"

I was given a lot of advice on books to read, and places to go to do proper research
on Lee / Jackson Day.

Well I got a book, thank you !
Written by my Great Grandfather.
J C Tatum, who was a member of the First Company Richmond Howitzers.

It's a family Journal

This book traces my family history 

 parts of it as far back as 1029 AD

It's a treasure.

On one of the pages J.C. makes a comment --

The page reads --

" After an interval of over thirty years of time my memory takes me back to my wartime days
(1861 1865) it seems strange about my experience as a Confederate soldier , yet it is true.
And that I am proud today as a prince of that experience.
. I rejoice with exceeding great joy to know that I and my brother William were soldiers in the Army of Northern Virginia and that I lived in the same days and generation and breathed the same liberty loving atmosphere as Generals Lee and Jackson and that incomparable host of patriots whose valor and heroic achievements for our cause has challenged the admiration of the civilized world .
My brother and I did our duty to the last, we had guns and used them in many hard fought battles to our satisfaction, without either being taken prisoner or receiving only slight wounds once in a while"
John C Tatum

Now then as far as I'm concerned that's all the reason necessary to celebrate Lee Jackson Day.

I'd like to thank everyone who offered reading / research suggestions.

But to all who offered suggestions--

No Thanks, I Got A Book

.UPDATE !!!

In an attempt to cut down on Shadow People comments
I've made a change to the comment policy !

THE SHADOW PEOPLE !

One of the things I really enjoy is rejecting comments made by " Shadow People"

The ones who hide behind fake names, and use other people's profiles.
To post snarky, hate filled comments.
Typical, Flogger / Yankee stuff.

They ain't got enough courage to use their own names.

So a quick scan tells me whats up, I ain't gotta read em.

Some of them obviously took a while to create,

 and I delete them in a few seconds without reading them.

So all you "Shadow People" please continue posting your well thought out,  

lengthy comments.

Because when I reject them, you--

 " Make My Day"
