DiogenesLamp: "This has been explained to you before.
Lieutenant Porter immediately tried to engage the confederate shore batteries as soon as he arrived.
If you think he was doing this contrary to the President's orders, you are greatly mistaken.
One can only conclude that his orders were to start a d@mn fight as soon as he got there.
Nothing else is reasonable."

You are so obviously a trained Democrat propagandist -- here imputing motives to Republican Lincoln where none such are in evidence, while ignoring Democrat Jefferson Davis' own expressions of pre-meditated intention to start Civil War at both Forts Sumter and Pickens.

Seriously, what's wrong with your brain, FRiend?

Normal people observe phenomena, trends, and facts and use them to construct understandings of the world around them. Here we have two individuals who started with a premise (actually the rejection of a premise in favor of its antithesis) and then gather data points in defense of that premise.

If the facts do not support their premise they ignore the fact that it is a fact and reject it out of hand.

In small doses it can be amusing but these two are definitely not funny.

BroJoeK is a master propagandist, and a closet progressive, who knows for a fact that the greedy, blood-thirsty, psychopath named Lincoln was a big-government socialist and the forerunner to the modern-day Democrat Party.

When BroJoeK uses the word “FRiend,” it is alway to misdirect the conversation away from his deception.

Because pointing out the truth is "Democrat Propaganda"?

You know Porter did exactly what I said he did. You just don't know how to deal with it other than calling people who bring it to your attention "Democrat Propagandists."

Your argument must take one of two forms.

1. Porter was a rouge operating outside his orders.
2. Porter was doing exactly what the President wanted done.

Pick one.
