“No other country at the time agreed with you. In their eyes the confederacy was a rebellious part of the U.S. No more, and no less.”
Britain didn’t think so. It understandably took a wait-and-see attitude, to see which side was going to win. It did not want to piss off either side. Funny, Britain continued trade with the Confederacy even after its shipping was interdicted by Yankee naval elements. One would think that Britain would refrain from trade with the Confederacy if it thought it didn’t exist.
As for Lincoln ordering Chief Justice Taney’s arrest, just Google that; it’s all over the place. Your abject refusal to accept any bad press for your god Abe Lincoln speaks volumes about your stubbornness and ignorance.
Not-shit, I mean non-sequitur, we will never agree on this topic, and, quite franly, I am growing tired of of your sophomoric attempts to elevate the impossible (i.e., that Lincoln sits at the left hand of God).
Considering that Britain never accorded the confederacy any form of diplomatic recognition it's hard to understand how you came to that conclusion.

And if Britain believed the confederacy to be a sovereign nation then don't you think they would have protested the seizure of ships belonging to their citizens by the U.S. Navy?

That story has been around for years and has been discredited time and again. My objection to your tale is not because it's against Lincoln but to the total lack of evidence to support the claim. There is a single source, not from the person who supposedly makes the claim. There is nothing to support it - no documentation, no witnesses, no arrest, nothing. But you swallow it hook, line, and sinker.

But when cornered and asked to support your asinine claims you go for name calling and attempts at insult, in true Southron fashion. I suppose I should respond in kind, something like asking if ought-six is your screen name or your IQ?
