Want some Russian dressing with that? ;-)
Typical Democrat, you accuse me of your own failings.
So "word salad" pretty well describes our Lost Causers' quotes & data -- almost none of it really means what you people claim it says.
An not one of you can face up to the truth of that, FRiend.
You should spend some of this “energy” where the fight is REALLY at, Bro.
On Twitter.
Your little game here on FR is just onanism. ;-)
Your "little game here" devolves instantly to insults, you can't carry on a reasoned conversation.
Typical of Democrats & Lost Causers, but I repeat myself.
Looks like The BrOnanist is a Last Worder, eh?
It has long been my belief that if the Confederacy had been allowed to become stable, all the outlying territories and many of the states then part of the Union would have gone over to it. The five border states would have of course gone over to the Confederacy. Several of them came close anyways, and were only prevented by use of Federal forces to stop them.
I've often lamented in the past that the "genius" Presidents get us involved in F***ed up sh*t. Carter was supposed be "brilliant." Kennedy was supposed to be "Brilliant". Woodrow Wilson was supposed to be "Brilliant, and of course Abraham Lincoln clearly was "brilliant."
As is usual with "brilliant" intellectuals, they are often "too smart by half". They end up making a mess because they had the arrogance to think they knew what was going to happen, and it turned into a horrible mess because they overestimated their own powers of perception.
Yes, Lincoln lit the fuse on a very horrible war, and even though he was warned by his cabinet, he did it anyways because he thought he could handle it.
And yes, after so much bloodshed, they wanted to exploit a religious angle and claim it was "God's work." It was the only excuse that people would accept for all the horrors they brought to the people of both North and South.
This is the correct assessment of the late “unpleasantness”.
As I am attempting to clarify the dominant cause of the war, it is relevant. I have been misled for most of my life into believing the war was fought because slavery was bad, but I have learned in the last few years that this is the cover story for the real reason, and the real reason is because Southern independence was a grave economic threat to the same North Easter power interests who are *STILL F***ING WITH THE REST OF US TODAY!*
Honest to God, I noticed decades ago that every F***ing thing wrong with the nation seems to emanate from the Northeaster portion of the United States, Namely Massachusetts, New York, and Washington DC.
The News Media liars are orchestrated out of New York, and they literally lie about our President on a daily basis. I found out years ago, that everything on Television tends to be New York centric. As if New York is the center of the Nation, while all of us people out here in "flyover land" are considered backward rubes who should let our "betters" think for us.
I recall in 1995 when all the talking heads on the News media laughed at and ridiculed the idea that the Federal government should live within it's budget, and they regarded efforts to balance the federal government as irresponsible.
Since the disdain that the powerful people of New York feel towards the rest of is happening right now it was not so much of leap to think it has been going on a very long time. Even so far back as the 1850s. I see many parallels between what is going on right now and the same sort of arrogance and control of the money that was going on back then.
Bigtime.
