Confederate losers: We want statues of our history
...
Not like this
The only Confederate general that deserves a statue is me.
And Here's Why
From Wikipedia:Jubilation T. Cornpone: Dogpatch's founder and most famous resident, memorialized by a town statue. He was a Confederate known for "Cornpone's Retreat", "Cornpone's Disaster", "Cornpone's Stupidity", "Cornpone's Misjudgment", "Cornpone's Hoomiliation", and "Cornpone's Final Mistake". Cornpone was such an incompetent military leader that he came to be considered an important asset of the opposing side.
You're welcome.
now hold on cornpone is delicious. which came first him or the food
I'm going to assume Cornpone (which is basically fried cornbread pancakes) came first and that's where Al Capp borrowed the name from.
