Smithsonian Asks Important Questions

Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson

The Smithsonian is finally asking the questions that we've waited way too long to ask concerning the Civil War (what is known in my house as The War Between the States).


Who had the best Civil War facial hair? Hurry over, make your vote. Perhaps not surprisingly, Ambrose Burnsides is running away with it, currently more than doubling up on the runner-up, J.E.B. Stuart, who in my opinion has the obviously superior facial hair. I mean, come on, that moustache!

Sadly, my boy T. J. Jackson wasn't even in the running.
