Called to the difficult and responsible station of Chief Executive of the Provisional Government which you have instituted, I approach the discharge of the duties assigned to me with an humble distrust of my abilities, but with a sustaining confidence in the wisdom of those who are to guide and to aid me in the administration of public affairs, and an abiding faith in the virtue and patriotism of the people.

The facts are, your rebels lost and you...and others....are intent on revising history by insisting that the rebel cause was just and somehow “Constitutional”.
Grow up. Join the adult community and accept the fact that the South of Jeffy Davis, slave labor and Johnny Reb Grey is dead.

I get the feeling that "rowdy" is all hat and no cattle on this antebellum union issue. You'd think that someone making such a substantial claim regarding causes would provide at least a scintilla of evidence to back it up.

“Idiot” doesn’t quite do him justice, does it?
To: Non-Sequitur
No, but it does give him a goal to shoot for...

Id be willing to bet you never read a blasted thing about what lead up to the civil war and barely know what youre talking about. I'd be willing to be the same about you where the first part of that sentence it concerned. You've already proven the second part.
To: Thumper1960
The thing is, I’m not going to argue with people who won’t look at facts and who do not have the ability to deal with facts...good luck! You may be grown up, but are obviously not capable of discerning.

Again, I’m not going to argue with people who do not have the ability or the propensity to look at facts instead of sucking up propaganda. Like I said, crack a book, it can be very enlightening.

But there are lots more scholars and writers who do.Then you won't have any trouble citing a few off the top of your head based on your extensive reading on the subject.

I could site all day and you would still have a closed mind...so why bother.

You may be grown up, but are obviously not capable of discerning.Yet again, you choose to reject reality and substitute your own in an effort to make you own little bubble safe and secure for your fragile ego. Yes, the folks did lie to you and fill your head with inanities. It's a cryin' shame.
