    Governor McDonnell: wrong AND right on Confederate History Month

    By omekongo  |  Posted April 8, 2010  |  Wilmington, Ohio
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     omekongo often voices his honest opinion on the day's political issues.
    - hhanks, CNN iReport producer

    While I disagree with Gov. McDonnell even creating Confederate History Month (should be "Civil War History Month"), his late decision to acknowledge the importance of slavery during the war period was a step in the right direction. If we are ever going to change this intense, hate-filled political climate that we are in, we need to take politicians at face value when they recogninze a wrong that doesn't involve breaking the law or violating their oath they took.
