What the hell does that have to do with Abe Lincoln?
Davis was never even tried for treason so I don't think that the likes of you can convict him here or anywhere else.
If those damn Yankees were as evil as you portray, Davis would have been shot on sight. Lincoln's policy was reconciliation and reconstruction, not revenge.
These special interests would have suffered serious financial loss if a low tariff Confederate States of America were allowed to peacefully, democratically and constitutionally secede from the United States
Funny how economically, the North prospered during the war without revenue from the South while the southern economy collapsed without Northern markets to sell to.
There was nothing Constitutional about unilateral secession. It was treason and rebellion done for the benftit of a few.
You're the one that brought up economics, numbnuts!
From YOUR post #190: "Learn some real history, including the economics that drove people like Davis to treason before you start tearing people like Lincoln apart. "
Try to keep up.
If those damn Yankees were as evil as you portray,
And if they were the fair minded angels that you and your posse portray, they would have adhered to their Constitution with a speedy and fair trail.
Funny how economically, the North prospered during the war without revenue from the South while the southern economy collapsed without Northern markets to sell to.
Nothing funny about it. Cranking up the war machine always stimulates the economy. WWII got us out of the Great Depression.
On the other hand, the South depended on exporting agricultural products. The yankee naval blockade prevented that.
It was treason and rebellion done for the benefit of a few.
That statement standing on it's own is nothing more that an opinion.
If you have documents that irrefutably state that secession was illegal in 1860, written in 1860 or before, produce them. You'll become an instant celebrity and possibly touted as the greatest research historian of all time.
