That would be like saying Pearl Harbor is a done deal so get over it. You shouldn't read so much into what I was saying. It was an analogy that used historical facts. I did not say my opinion on the war. It's not like I referred to it as "The War of Northern Agression."
How could I get over something that I wasn't even fixated on emotionally in the first place? To top it off my family didn't even come over till after the civil war and when they did they came through Ellis Island. Pretty sure that I am "over" it.
Side note, I was often confused as to why so many people had negative thoughts regarding your reading comprehension and ability to form cognizant sentences. And I'll end this post the way it began, another quote, but this time from Mark Twain: "It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt."
