And you gloss over a pre-Civil war letter to someone you say is in 1848. Look, you’re just pissed because of another thread we tangled on. I get that. But I don’t go looking for ANYTHING you’ve posted and ache to contract what you say. You’re just not that important.
You sure do! And like your other positions of which I have became acquainted in the last few days, it is also incorrect.
I have no interest in picking a bone with you because we argued about another issue, I am arguing with you because I consider the causes and consequences of the 1861 war to be very relevant to the same problems we are facing today.
Where is the center of power in this nation? It is in the corridor between Washington D.C. and Boston. *THIS IS NOT AN ACCIDENT.*
Where are the propaganda corps who have been throwing our elections located? They are mostly in New York. *THIS IS NOT AN ACCIDENT.*
There is an elite cadre of "Aristocrats" who have became wealthy over the years through their ability to keep Federal dollars flowing into industries and organizations over which they have control. (We nowadays call this "Crony Capitalism", and it has echos of Nazism.)
They *OWN* the media. That's why it is liberal and has always been Liberal.
As I ponder this issue, I am waking up to the idea that this power block has it's roots back in the mid 19th century. Indeed, it appears to have it's roots in the election of 1860, and Lincoln was it's first unabashed agent of this "Mercantilist" coalition.
This issue is much bigger than you, and you flatter yourself to think that I am being contentious with you because you and I disagree about how corrupt Brazilian cops robbed some American swimmers and then held them for hostage.
I would be arguing this same position had I never heard of you prior to today.
