Robert E. Lee was not only a great general, but is on the short list for the greatest American who ever lived. (That’s after Nana, The Boss, and my chief of research, natch.) Indeed, many people who have not known the three figures I just listed, have made powerful arguments that Gen. Lee was the greatest American who ever lived.
But Lee was a patriotic Virginian, and as such, made a fateful decision to lead the Army of Northern Virginia, rather than the Army of the Potomac, which he was also offered, in the American Civil War.
As part of the one-sided, genocidal war on whites, which has raged for generations in America, contumely is heaped upon all things Confederate, whom racists seek to eliminate from our history, at the same time that they obsessively vilify them. (How one is to do both things, is never explained.)
The CNN Division of the DPUSA is part of the seditious conspiracy to undo the 2016 election. One of its tactics is to state or suggest that President Trump is a racist. (Also that he is insane, a criminal, etc.)
With that in mind, a few hours ago Manu Raju presented President Trump’s praise of General Lee as obvious proof that Trump is some sort of white supremacist.
The Duranty-Blair Award recognizes those journalists whose work embodies the spirit of Walter Duranty and Jayson Blair, two of the most notorious journalists in the history of the Fourth Estate. It is no accident that both men worked for the New York Times.
Manu Raju joins other CNN Duranty-Blair laureates:
• CNN’s Symone Sanders (2), Don Lemon, and Kate Bolduan (2), in November 2016; and
• CNN Activist Jim Sciutto, in May 2017.
Here are Trump’s comments tonight calling the leader of the Confederate army a “great general” multiple times https://t.co/jCtEdR1NFg

Co-accepting the award with Raju will be Jeff Zucker(it starts at the top).The ceremony will take place on October 31st.Snickers bars will be served for dinner with M&Ms for dessert.
Hosting the event will be Ben Stein(if able to get his ample frame out of a chair.Ben has enjoyed the good life to an extreme,it appears).
The frenzy is building in advance of the midterm elections.The usual pro-Dem networks are ramping the hysteria,you almost expect a riot to break out somewhere,(they tried in Portland).
Still time.

Eisenhower also thought Lee as a GREAT MAN. Lincoln too did have a lot of respect for Lee and admired the noble bearing and comportment of Lee.
Lee was a great general. I have always wonder why Lee did not execute the maneuver that was plainly his responsibility and would have in all probability won the Confederates the battle at Gettysburg. Others have wondered the same.
