His post #183 is so full of crap that it's, well, like all his other posts!
I've actually read them all,
A common claim that NS/DSK makes about every book that's ever been written.
there was no adoption.
Perhaps because there was no adoption law in Virginia at that time and any adoption would have been an extralegal one? Oops! You left that part out, didn't you DSK. Just one more example of the millions of DSK's lies, myths and revisionism.
I've never seen any confirmation that he left Richmond with the Davis' or that either Davis took any particular pains to find out what happened to him.
Limber was with the Davis' at the time of their capture and was taken from them by the damn yankees.
And since President Davis spent the next two years in a yankee prison and was the most hated man in the north, it would seem that any reasonable person of intellect would quickly deduce that Davis' resources were probably extremely limited thereby making the location of one Jim Limber somewhat difficult, if not impossible. Of course, we can't expect NS/DSK to embrace reason, now can we.
Your 'adopted child' claims
See above. BTW, I've decided to 'adopt' you as my favorite yankee to hate but since there's no laws in SC allowing the adoption of massive piles of buzzard dung I guess I'll have to adopt you extra-legally.
myth without basis in fact.
You, dung pile, are the notorious one for being factually challenged. It's your forte, your MO, your genetic being!
We all KNOW IT, we all LAUGH AT YOU and we all LOVE to HATE YOU FOR IT!
That one had a Stand Watie feel to it.
I'm the one leaving it out? The claim was made that Limber was Davis' adopted son. I've pointed out that the claim is nonsense, and you've provided support that backs my position. I suppose I should thank you for it, but your supporting my position was accidental at best and sloppiness on your part at worst.
Limber was with the Davis' at the time of their capture and was taken from them by the damn yankees.
And that is based on what source? I've seen versions of the story that have Limber ripped from Varina's loving bosom when the Yankees marched into Richmond. But Lost Causers have never let accuracy stand in the way of a good Southron myth.

Reason is not something we often see in one of your posts. And evidence that Davis had any interest in Limber once his usefulness was over is as just as nonexistent. But again, it makes for such a nice fairy tale to say he spent the post war years searching high and low for the little tyke.

Based of the mouth-foaming hatred you've directed towards others I'd say I'm one of a dozen or so Yankees you love to hate. Where would you be without your hatred to keep you warm at night?

Being called 'factually challenged' by someone like you is like being called ugly by an orangutang.
