Notice folks how this guy, Non-Sequitur, dodged my question. Obama-like, isn't it!

No, it's about all that knee-jerk Lincoln loathers like yourself deserve. And I also notice that you ignored my question as well. Par for the course.

But LIARS, like Non-Sequitur, are more comfortable citing revisionist history.

Revisionist history like David Herbert Donald or James McPherson or Doris Goodwin? Oh, I forget. Anyone whose position differs from historical giants like Tommy DiLorenzo or the Kennedy brothers is revisionist. It's easy to come to that conclusion when one's standards for accuracy are as low as your own.

Donald's description of Lincoln's trip make it clear that Lincoln traveled alone from the beginning. He notes that when Lincoln reached D.C. he sent a telegram to his wife in Harrisburg that he arrived safely. How could that have happened if she had originally been on the train with him?

...Mary Todd Lincoln. E.g. Turner and Turner’s Mary Todd Lincoln, Her Life and Letters...

Even your own source admits Mary Lincoln was on a separate train.

I have also quoted to him the reports of a NY Times correspondent allowed to ride with Lincoln (obviously a Lincoln supporter) and the report of Lincoln's own security guy, Pinkerton, who alerted him to the threats.

By all means post it again. Or for the first time, as the case may be.

You could have found these yourself if you were really interested. But you're not. You're obviously more interested in blowing smoke.

Please don't bother me again with this, and your holier than thou remarks. I'm not the one making stuff up here.
