He is an icon of the South, without the slaves. There is something kinda .... about a kid who’s never played baseball.

That’s fair and square, and if you’d stop all your arguin’ and jawin’ you’d see my side of it.

I keep pitchin’ em and you keep missin’ em.

It is funny that we erected statues of a bunch of treasonous men. .

Have you ever heard the character that Foghorn Leghorn was based on? There was a Senator Claghorn character on the Fred Allen radio show. It was a funny bit but Foghorn was better.

Except his daddy blew all his mother’s money and he got his nose bent out of shape after not getting enough credit for his work at Ticonderoga and Saratoga.

Why a statue at all?

Why not a playground where all the little kiddies can play together innocently...long before they adopt the prejudices of their parents ?

I have two ideas of what we should replace them with.

1. Statues of Grant, Sherman, and other Union generals.

2. Civil rights icons and other people of color who have made significant contributions to our country. This is especially fitting because a lot of these states went up during the 60s.
