Old South monument backers embrace Confederate Catechism

Not exactly, and some of the current arguments on both sides are incorrect.
Memorial Day in the South - Historians acknowledge the Ladies Memorial Association played a key role in these rituals of preservation of Confederate "memory." Various dates ranging from April 25 to mid-June were adopted in different Southern states. Across the South, associations were founded, many by women, to establish and care for permanent cemeteries for the Confederate dead, organize commemorative ceremonies, and sponsor appropriate monuments as a permanent way of remembering the Confederate dead. The most important of these was the United Daughters of the Confederacy, which grew from 17,000 members in 1900 to nearly 100,000 women by World War I. They were "strikingly successful at raising money to build Confederate monuments, lobbying legislatures and Congress for the reburial of Confederate dead, and working to shape the content of history textbooks."

We still have Military facilities and public buildings named for traitors, fix that

Yes, SGT (Join to see). I've also heard of (and read) Time on the Cross, by Robert Fogel and Stanley Engerman; I'll Take My Stand, by "Twelve Southerners" (one of whom is Robert Penn Warren); The Legacy of the Civil War, by the same Robert Penn Warren; Black Confederates and Afro-Yankees in Civil War Virginia, by Ervin Jordan; and The Confederate Constitution of 1861 by Marshall DeRosa. One can go the the State of Tennessee archives and find the names of black soldiers who were granted a pension based on their Confederate service (Tennessee was the only Confederate state that documented the race of its pension recipients). All of the above are examples of history books and resources that should be read and contemplated, as should the Confederate Catechism. But declaring that history is summed up in a 12-page pamphlet as this AP article does is IMHO a little simplistic.
