Yeah, Texas Rising should have been named "History Channel Sinking." I was so disgusted with that nonsense that I ordered the movie version of James Michner's "Texas." It was made quite a while back, but doesn't suffer the stupidity of the uhm....revisionist historians' version of things - most of which arises because they make their living dining at the public feed trough of federal grant money. Gotta have a new theory every week!

Anyway. I highly recommend that old movie. It is dated, but very enjoyable. Stacy Keach stars. It is everything "Texas Rising" could have been if they had only allowed sober people to make it. :shock:

Re: History Channel Makes a startling discovery.

With all due respect, if you're watching the History Channel and expecting to find real history, or anything else accurately portrayed, you'd be better off watching Bugs Bunny. They have, pardon the pun, a pretty sad history of gross inaccuracies.
