Greatest American General

Sherman was a genius that saved the war for the North.

 

I thought that was U.S. Grant?

 

Grant was the one in charge, but Sherman saved the union.

 

You don't give the credit to Abraham Lincoln, eh?

 

Are you kidding? He just picked the fight.

 

I was going to add a few Patton quotes to support my assertion but after I edited the vulgarity all I had left was three prepositions and an exclamation point!
