Because he did! I recalled the episode and had to do some digging to find the reference...

from: http://www.tultw.com/bios/sam1.htm

Colonel Sam of the Confederate Army
"Southern Fried Rabbit" May 2, 1953 MM I. Freleng
Bugs Bunny, Yosemite Sam
News of a record carrot crop in Alabama sends Bugs Bunny "Alabama Bound", but after reaching the Mason-Dixon line Bugs finds the line defended by Colonel Sam of the Confederate Army, who has been ordered by General Lee not to let any Yankee cross it.
