If their intentions were to 'demand' recognition of Confederate sovereignty it would have been in the document.

It was right there in the first sentence of the second paragraph. They were sent to get what they demanded, not negotiate with Lincoln.

Secession was not/is not illegal.

Secession without the consent of the other states is/was. As the Supreme Court noted.

Wildly fanatical speculations of a grossly delusional madman.

Fanatical, yes Davis was fanatical. But a madman? I suppose he was that as well.

First, no property was stolen.

Yes it was, all over the South. Forts, armories, court houses, post offices, mints, revenue cutters, everything the rebels could get their greedy mitts on.

Second, history would have proven the Confederacy's honorable intentions if Linkln hadn't insisted on invading us.

If the south had honorable intent then they would have settled all questions of disagreement before they left. Honorable intent was a foreign concept to Davis and his regime.

Playing the victim has become totally ingrained in you.

Victimization as well as complete denial is your most noteworthy trait as well.

Your slightly biased interpretation? Please......

You're not going to drag out Texas v White again, are you? Haven't you had your ass handed to you enough over that one?

Yes it was, all over the South. Forts, armories, court houses, post offices, mints, revenue cutters, everything the rebels could get their greedy mitts on.

No property was stolen. Period.

This is just more of your delusional victimization.

You know, I know and everybody else knows that Linkln and the yankees would never, ever have agreed to anything.

This is your shell game. It's like asking the question, 'have you stopped beating your wife'. Why don't you try being honest about the situation for once in your miserable life.

Here's some irrefutable facts for ya:

Secession was/is not illegal.
The South legally seceded.
The South sought a peaceful treaty with the yankees.
Linkln did not want peace.
Linkln illegally invaded a sovereign country.
The north has revised history to cover up it's illegal, immoral and dishonorable actions ever since.

Honorable intent was a foreign concept to Davis and his regime.

This coming from the most dishonorable person on FR and, perhaps, the entire interwebz.

Free Dixie!
