Jefferson Davis fought for a supreme court?

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.

for some reason or other, N-S, the Minister of Damnyankee Propaganda, is "hung up" on the CSA not forming a supreme court in the middle of our war for independence.

i asked him once how long it took the 13 colonies to set one up & ha said it wasn't the same thing.

personally, i think spending more time on killing the invading damnyankee filth & winning the WBTS was MUCH more important between 1861-65 than forming a court.

btw, you cannot win any argument with N-S, as he is always right & the "filth that flowed down from the north" were PERFECT in every way. our grayclad, hungry, barefooted little army was always WRONG in every way. (SIMPLETONS yearn for simplistic answers!)

And nothing in 1863 or 1864 or 1865. A supreme court just didn't fit in his plans.
