C-Span Civil War Series

A very impressive panel,I used to like Brooks Simpson until he went crazy ranting about the Virginia Flaggers.the rest of the panel is first rate but I am a fan of Scot Hartwig.

You are confusing two different panels, regarding content. The Meade Panel stuck very close to it intended subject: Meade. The last panel of the Conference was open topic, thus, there were many subjects discussed. The Flaggers may have come up in the context of symbols -- flags -- and their perceived meanings then/now. It was all in context with the discussion -- no ranting, particularly.

Saw you asking your question. You need to wear a Virginia Tech shirt.

Thanks for the explanation. I found the original comment puzzling. So what?

Actually, Professor Simpson has been quite a bit ahead of the curve on his discussions regarding "heritage" groups. A lot of what came up in that last panel has come to pass in current events. I don't suppose that many people will be chiding him anymore regarding discussing "more important" topics. It is thee topic.

I always am cautious about ascribing various conditions to people with whom I disagree, lest it reveal that I'm the one with the problem. Nor does this information seem relevant to the panel in question. But I tend to stay away from the obsessive behavior of claiming others display obsessive behavior.

My bad for making conversation on this; it detracts from the purpose of the thread: the videos.

@JerseyBart I am okay with it if you want to clean up the thread and get rid of some of my chat.
