Then in your post #220, you frame a letter I reference as ‘harmless and innocuous’ and then announce that my use of the letter becomes ‘underhanded subterfuge and unprecedented treason.’
Seems as if you should be watching t.v. or something.
Nope. But I think I am beginning to see part of the problem here. Here are your comments in regards to the letter:
12/12/1860 In an unprecedented action, Mr. Lincoln sent a secret message to his future subordinate Commander of the Army, General Winfield Scott.................
Lincoln had begun to formulate a plan to seize Ft. Sumter and Ft. Barranas even before his inauguration, and was interfering with the current administration.
My "announcement" is that you misrepresent the letter by exaggerating and jumping to conclusions (hyperbole and extrapolating) by accusing the President-elect of "underhanded subterfuge and unprecedented treason" by your use of the words bolded above. (That is, if in fact those are your words that you posted. You don't seem to be familiar with them.)
correction: your post citing the letter is actually #168. My mistake.
