A Wlatism.

So should we start referring to deliberate misquotes as a'4CJism'?

This WAS stated by Taney

Yeah, but what he didn't say was, "The court ruled that 'when any government shall be found inadequate or contrary to these purposes, a majority of the community hath an indubitable, inalienable, and indefeasible right to reform, alter, or abolish the same'." like you claimed.

Sorry, but nothing deliberate about it. A mistake on my part, but not a deliberate attempt to have the justice. In contrast, one Capitan Refugio continued to post misleading statements even after being corrected by nolu chan and myself.

What he did say was 'the sovereignty in every State resides in the people of the State, and that they may alter and change their form of government at their own pleasure'.
