rotflmRao!

we are all beginning to wonder if you are "a big man". you sound like a "petulant child" who cries & has temper tantrums every time someone doesn't let you have his/her way and/or doesn't agree with you.

as i've said MANY times, the plantation aristocracy was VERY committed to the preservation & expansion of slavery to the west, BUT hardly anyone else was/cared.

what you don't want to accept is that the plantation aristocracy was NOT running everything in the southland AND was NOT the "dictator" of everything in the new nation.

sadly for the damnyankee apologists, not only was the "sectional crisis" NOT MAINLY about slavery, but admitting that makes the damnyankee clique of thugs/scoundrals/warhawks of the lincoln regime the "aggressors" in the "sectional crisis".

that is why none of the damnyankee apologists can get past the fiction that "slavery was all".

Of the 50 delegates to the confederate constitutional convention, 49 owned slaves.

A hint for you: calling somebody a "damnyankee" is a sure way to make people think that your IQ is less than the number of your teeth -- and also that you haven't got many teeth left.

You're simply spouting opinions again. You have yet to address the documented facts I have presented.
