DL ~ The "We started a war to free the slaves" is just bullsh*t.

rockrr ~ yes it is - so why do you keep repeating it?

DL needs to cling to the invented arguments of the giant windmills he creates or his mad fantasy will blow away. He waxes "quixotic". He projects his anger of Davis and Stephens onto Lincoln. Someday, and it won't be a happy day, he will honestly ask himself why did the South secede. It won't be a pretty picture when he realizes they were only interested in preserving their peculiar economic institution. Follow the money, indeed.

I sometimes wonder if quixotic is pronounced “chaotic” as applied to DegenerateLamp’s assorted ravings.

If you don't think that most people believe the war was started to free the slaves, you haven't even read the comments in *THIS* thread, let alone the endless comments I see every time this topic comes up.

The vast majority of the people believe that the War was fought to end slavery.
