Show me the great dispassionate objectivity demonstrated in #285 LOL. Liberal Projection™ is usually exercised by liberals.

BTW: You neglected to speak to the actual point: Was Lee’s primary obligation to carry out the terms of Custis’s will or interject his own “sensibilities” into an interpretation of what was the best use of the resources of the estate?

Being presented with such a colossal blunder of understanding is a threat to anyone's objectivity. One can only keep a straight face for so long when confronted with such epic failure to grasp a point.

As I indicated, I can't recall having ever seen such an example before.

A man must live with his own decisions. I trust that Robert E. Lee did what seemed most reasonable and fair to him, given the disparate moral requirements of the situation.
