Then why did none of the biographers, or Taney himself, mention it in any of his biographies?

As I've already said, there could be any of a number of reasons.

Because you say it did? Thanks for clearing that up.

Because it was idiotic and not remotely comparable. Par for the course for you.

I saw the part where you speculated on what he was thinking. Where is that different from what you accused me of doing?

I offered a possible reason why he may not have. You tried to claim that because he did not mention it then that automatically means it did not happen. See the difference or do I need to type more slowly for you?

Answer the question I asked.

the article I posted already did.

None of which make sense. You would have us believe there was a conspiracy spanning 150 years by all of Taney's biographers and Taney himself to deliberately ignore Lincoln's plan to arrest him despite what you claim is irrefutable proof. Only you could see logic in that.

Because it was idiotic and not remotely comparable.

When if comes to idiocy then who would know that better than you?

the article I posted already did.

Crap. None of the biographers were aware of the Lamon memo? None of them were aware of the written accounts of conversations with Taney? Really?
