An Early Riddle

[womzilla]

What do you call someone who betrays his oath to his government, carries out plans to destroy federal property, kills hundreds of thousands of American soldiers, and enslaves Americans to promote his own wealth?



Robert E. Lee.

("Early" for celebration of Abraham Lincoln's birthday. Right on time for Black History Month. Inspired by hearing Hoyt Axton's performance of "I'm a Good Old Rebel" on Pete Fornatale's "Mixed Bag" historyt of the Civil War this evening.)

Late for Lincoln's actual birthday, though.

For some reason, I had it fixed in my head that Lincoln's Birthday was Feb. 16th. Probably this is because Beethoven's birthday is Dec. 16th.
