Ok, try this out: you are a lying sack of sh*t. Still now you are lying. You did not quote an excerpt. What you posted was a mashed and mangled “excerpt”. And you put Lincoln’s name to it. Read it again, for the first time. Misquoting Lincoln doesn’t win points around here (quite the opposite).

No, it is YOU who is the lying sack of sh*t. I ACCURATELY QUOTED what he himself said. You are simply LYING to say otherwise. He said he supported fugitive slave legislation. That was his position. He never changed it. Lie about it all you like that will never change it. Anybody who bothers to read can see that for himself.

You most certainly did not “accurately quote” what Lincoln said. I did accurately quote what Lincoln said. Obviously you can not discern the difference. What, pray tell is the source for your sliced and diced and clipped quote?

You say Lincoln never changed his opinion on it? Do you know the reason for that? Are you familiar with Roger Taney and the Dred Scott Decision? That pretty much blew the Fugitive Slave Law out of the water. It was a very fluid situation. Some get it some don’t.
