"You got way too excited by a supposed slur to your hero, Jeff Davis."

As I have told you and Inconsequental many times, Jefferson Davis is not my hero. My one concern is with the official falsification of history as it regards the War of Secession, and particularly the official creation of the mythical Abraham Lincoln, who bears no relation to the sleazy tyrant who prosecuted the immoral war to suppress Southern secession.

"You made a statement you couldn't possibly think to be true, unless you are about 11 years old.

Are you referring to the allegation that Lincoln sneaked into Washington disguised as a woman? Certainly, if true, it would have been suppressed in the official version of the history of the period. But there is no reason whatever why I couldn't believe it; it sounds perfectly plausible, given what is known of Lincoln's character.

I've read a lot about this, and I've never heard --any-- indication that Lincoln was ever disguised as a woman, either as president-elect or at any other time. You didn't either. You made it up out of whole cloth.
