JoeBob, you've been doing pretty good so far, but I fear you're gonna come tumbling down in flames by telling us
"..and the Jews were responsible, for all of it." 
So, now you resort to character assassination by accusing me of being anti-Semitic?
Of course, during the Civil War a Jew wouldn't have been elected dog catcher in New England while a practicing Jew was secretary of state for the Confederacy. Judah P. Benjamin exiled himself to England after the war where he made a name for himself as one of the better legal minds in the entire country and had a fine career. We've always loved our Jews in the South. The local temple was always a fixture of genteel southern society.
