Jefferson Davis was a vain man who held public grudges against anyone who opposed him.

His own wife called him a ‘’nervous dyspeptic by habit'' and he sought to impose his will on anyone, including Southerners who opposed him, John Minor Botts chief among them. Fulminate all you want Reb. The balance sheet still comes up as your side having lost the war it started. Making you and your ilk losers by extension.

Nobody said he was a perfect person. I freely acknowledge he had his faults just like everybody else. That said, he was far less oppressive than Lincoln who started the war thinking it would be easy. Deal with it Yank.
