Contempt? That's a funny word considering that all those years Davis was fighting Congress trying to get them to establish a supreme court!

Jefferson Davis fought for a supreme court? Next you'll be saying that Jefferson Davis fought to end slavery, too.

He sure did. He even put it in his state of the nation address for 1862:

"I invite the attention of Congress to the duty of organizing a Supreme Court of the Confederate States; in accordance with the mandate of the Constitution."

You know this, of course, but for some reason you prefer to fib about it.
