Thus, as did Great Usurper, capitan invokes the "Law" of necessity, also known as "Executive Nullification." Not even Lincoln apologist Daniel Farber could grovel to this depth. As Farber noted, "It is fruitless to argue for a general power of executive nullification. Lincoln himself did not even offer this defense, and history speaks strongly against it."
In other words, capitan is just B.S.-ing again.
What Farber wrote specifically about the concept of "necessity" is shown here in this section about Jefferson:
"Lincoln's invocation of necessity was not unprecedented. According to Jefferson, a 'strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest.' Rather, Jefferson claimed, the 'laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation.' For to 'lose our country by a scupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying tham with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means.'" (Faber, pg 192-193)
Another misrepresentation on your part. Or is it just a "goof"?
