Lots of forts named after confederate generals. Like Fort Lee, Fort Bragg, Fort Hood, Fort Benning, ....

Personally? Nothing. I just don't think we should name roads after the leaders of U.S. enemies. Do you?

Well, he was more things than just an enemy of the US. He was also a US representative, senator, and US Secretary of War. I would also say that a civil war or uprising is much different than a war with a foreign country. Given your rule of thumb the US shouldn't have anything named after any Indian, any Confederate, any British, any French, any German, any Russian, any Spanish, any Mexican, etc.

Basically nothing named after anyone or any area involved with these US enemies: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_the_United_States

Is that what your saying?

When you become a traitor, it negates all prior service.

Benedict Arnold being exhibit A.

This is fantastic news! I got hives the first time I realized the real name for Route 1 and that I was driving on it! Now let's get rid of that damn "Appomattox" statue in honor of Robert E. Lee in the middle of Washington Street in Old Town.

Not the PP that you are responding to, but having things merely named after notable Germans is very different from having things named after people who specifically waged war against you and who were directly responsible for killing thousands of Americans. I have no problem with naming something in the US after notable Germans like Albert Einstein or JS Bach or Gutenberg, but I would certainly have a huge issue with naming something in the US after Nazis like Hitler or Eichmann or Goehring.

As for what Jefferson Davis did prior to the Civil War, all that became deeply tarnished when he decided to command people to take up arms to attack the citizens of the United States. As for it being "different" to be at war with a foreign country, consider that during the Civil War, the states had already seceded and the CSA was in fact a foreign country and no longer part of the United States.

Why revere traitors and losers?

Why revere people who brought about a civil war resulting in the violent death of hundreds of thousands of Americans for no good reason other than to try and not just hold on to slavery, but to expand slavery into the westward territories?

Neoconfederates do not live in reality. They live in a world of denial and delusional fantasy.

There is a difference between recognize history, and honoring people who did horrible things as part of history.

Look at Europe for an example. They recognize the holocaust by keeping the concentration camps as places where people can come, and learn, and mourn, and pray. They make sure the holocaust isn't forgotten. They don't honor it by naming highways after Hitler.

I assume this is a joke, but I'll bite anyway.

There's a difference between recognizing history and honoring the leader of a historical enemy of the United States like Davis.

But please do vote for Trump in the GOP primary. His nomination will make Clinton's election a breeze. Thanks.

Another person without a strong opinion but when I really think about it, it does seem very peculiar to have named infrastructure for people who were traitors AND lost.
