Only because that was his name.

Yes, but this column is a work of fiction.

That is his correct name. Could this piece be a bit of a preemptive strike to keep the GOP from making the tie-in between the copperheads (RATs) of old and the New Copperheads (RATs) of today. They are the same party with the same goal of destroying the Constitution if not the nation.
