ROTFLMAO!!!! What history has he misinterpreted? He also cites examples of Northern slavery and black codes dating back to our founding - where did he lie about that?
You lie, twist and distort every post, refusing to admit that you were wrong - Taney did not hold the position you claim in the Scott V. Sandford case, I pointed out that he was citing a century of European history as the basis for his statement.
Now, as usual, you simply post more specious tripe as evidence. Taney's statement is not his personal opinion, it's a statement regarding the factual, legal condition of blacks in the United States of America. This is what then lawyer Roger B. Taney had to say in 1819,
A hard necessity, indeed, compels us to endure the evils of slavery for a time. It was imposed upon us by another nation, while we were yet in a state of colonial vassalage. It cannot be easily or suddenly removed. Yet while it continues, it is a blot on our national character, and every real lover of freedom confidently hopes that it will be effectually, though it will be gradually, wiped away; and earnestly looks for the means by which this necessary object may be best attained. And until it shall be accomplished, until the time shall come when we can point, without a blush to the language held in the Declaration of Independence, every friend of humanity will seek to lighten the galling chain of slavery, and better, to the utmost of his power, the wretched condition of the slave.Taney had inherited 10 slaves, freed 7 in 1818, another in 1821. The remaining two were old and feeble, and received pensions until their deaths. Even Justice Taney treated his ex-slaves better that you would treat Southerners. You despise Taney for some alleged racist point of view, yet you yourself have stated that the Union did not go far enough an wipe out every Southern man, women and child. The unmitigated gall and hypocrisy of you positions are amazing.
i would NOT pick out one whose postings of an ANTI-southern nature are worse than the others hateFILLED lies & distortions.
WISHING that the damnyankee cause was JUST/HONORABLE/DECENT does NOT make the ATROCITIES committed against the HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of helpless UNarmed civilians & CSA POWs any less CRIMINAL.
btw, over the last 2 days i've gotten two private e-mails that stated, in so many words, that they wished the damnyankees had MURDERED ALL of my family in 1864.(one said: "INJUNS deserve to die & if they had killed ALL of them, we wouldn't have to put up with you,_________. (obscenity deleted)".
NICE FOLKS, HUH???
