Damnit! I'm going to have to go the DMV now.

Next year marks the 200th birthday of Confederate General Robert E. Lee, and you can now use your car to celebrate the occasion. A commemorative Lee license plate was unveiled today.
The plate shows a picture of the general on the left. The bottom says, "200 Years The Virginia Gentleman." Appomattox Senator Frank Ruff sponsored the license plate bill. He says it's another way for Virginia to reinvest in its history.
In order for the license plate to become a reality, the group needs 350 people to sign up for it by July 31st. Applicants can download an application, then send it along with payment to:
Robert E. Lee License Plate Initiative
P.O. Box 3732
Glen Allen, VA 23058-3732

I can't believe it; Virginia does something besides trashing a Confederate hero. I believe it is only because the 400th anniversary of Jamestown is coming up next year that talk of Virginia's past is being spoken of without derision by those in Richmond. Now if we could only get the state legislatures to embody some of the principles that drove men like Lee, Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Henry. I'm not holding my breath on that one.
