Robert E. Lee Day isn't even really recognized in Virginia anymore except by some redneck nutjobs.
Lee is still highly respected as a man in Virginia for his fierce defense of his home state. Obviously, the nature of his state's cause seriously clouds his legacy.

The various truths about the Civil War are cornerstones for understanding the forces we're dealing with today -- but even in the south people have been engineered to think certain ways about the war. It's a shame.
