"the Old Media is still insisting that all southerners are slavery-loving, neo-confederates that are no different than they were in 1860."

Do people realize that there were slaves up north as well? Wasn't slavery outlawed down south before it was outlawed up north??

Mary Todd and Abraham had slaves. Mary Todd grew up with them. But that doesn’t count since she married Lincoln, I suppose.
