A Civil War Lieutenant struggles to inspire his men to fight for the South. To commemorate the one year anniversary of the "history making" short that started it all, we've uploaded a high quality version featuring previously unseen extended segments. Santry Rush's performance of "I Wish I Were In Dixie" (deemed "TOO good" and "not janky enough" for the original) is also featured.

Oct 31, 2008 - GREAT Video Guys. The ignorant people that wrote those stupid comments obviously didn't get the point of the video. They need to study up on their comedy and come back and watch it again. Good Job Keep It Up

Nov 3, 2008 - we removed ourselves from the union and the North Invaded us not about slavery more about taxation brainwashed they teach the same garbage and lies in our schools as in northern schools to find the true reason you have to go into more history and the flag standing for injustice? the flag stood for freedom and the right for men to throw off a government they viewed as unfair the colonies seceeded from Great Britan so why didnt the south have the right to seceed from the union

Nov 3, 2008 - youre damn right!

Luminahawke Says:

Nov 3, 2008 - Wasn't because things would be unfair. Southern leaders believed the Northern idealism would soon be the majority. For generations the Southern States held policial power most of the history of the United States. The main issue was not taxation, it was slavery, it was the biggest issue between the two parts of the country, the threat of a law being passed banning slavery would of badly crippled some aspects of the Southern Economy. Thats really the only reason for succession.

jtrain997 Says:

Nov 3, 2008 - Not true the north owned slaves far into the war Lincoln didnt even change his opinion on slavery until much later into his presidency the south was supplying much of the funding for the north due to cotton taxes true loss of slavery would and did cripple the south but it wasnt the major cause

Nov 4, 2008 - ***** and favorited. You guys are brilliant!

Luminahawke Says:

Nov 4, 2008 - Hense why I said, feared slavery may be outlawed in General. There was a growing resentment towards slavery. Wasn't a fact it would be removed. You care not really to read what I type if you didn't catch that word "feared" didn't mean it would happen, though it was likely perhaps sometime in the future. I stated the main reason was the lose of political power they feared, Election of Lincoln was proof because he wasn't the person the souther states wanted to be president.

jtrain997 Says:

Nov 4, 2008 - yes I understood that but it wasnt about slavery the major concern against slavery didnt really take affect until Lincoln issued the emancipation proclimation yes the south was concerned obviously it was there economical backbone but the south argued to peacibley give up slavery long before secession if the north would help the textile industry develop in southen states giving the south something other than slave labor the request was ignored however giving another reason for secesion

Luminahawke Says:

Nov 10, 2008 - Not exactly true, the South was getting a mass migration of Irish who willingly fought for the South when the war broke out because of the fear freed slaves would compete with their already under paid jobs. South was pretty wealthy, planations lived on even after the war was over, but with paid workers of course under paid workers, but the Irish really never flocked after the war because it was too under paid even worse than what they were being paid. Can't say they didn't have workers.

Nov 10, 2008 - it's brilliant! so funny! and the song at the end is really nice! i want to hear more! great video :D

smoky90210 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - I find it sad that we are still fighting about this war in which we were not even alive to witness,to take part,to take offense,or even have a true say in the matter. This video was great.

krystalframe Says:

Nov 24, 2008 - Yeah, as a reenactor I have to say that that is what we say to each other when the General isn't around.

thealphagoat Says:

Nov 24, 2008 - awesome....make more

hardmod777 Says:

Nov 24, 2008 - I wish this vile union would let us go...You hate us but you need us and you know it...

PapaAnon Says:

Nov 29, 2008 - wait what are u saying?

purzheen Says:

Nov 30, 2008 - Yeah, the South was hypocritical (not!). Ever read the Gettysburg Address? It's the one where Lincoln said something about a government for the people, by the people, etc. I always wondered why folks don't catch the blatant hypocrisy in that worthless document. The Confederacy was elected by the same kind of electorate that chose Lincoln: White men. Lincoln destroyed a democracy to save it? (And found a great excuse in slavery).Of course Ol' Abe never let truth get in the way of his politics.
