Then how about a little condemnation of comments like this one from Jefferson Davis?

"We recognize the Negro as God and God's Book and God's Laws in nature tell us to recognize him - our inferior, fitted expressly for servitude...The innate stamp of inferiority is beyond the reach of change. You cannot transform the negro into anything one-tenth as useful or as good as what slavery enables him to be"

Or is racism OK for Davis and not OK for Lincoln? You may have to ask billbears on that one. He hasn't answered me on it yet.

Davis was a racist who believed in property rights and self-determination.

Lincoln was a megalomaniacal, corporate lawyer who used extra-constitutional brute force to destroy others rights to property and self-determination, to further concentrate and expand federal power. All masterfully and conveniently wrapped in the moral cloth of furthering his own special enlightened vision of race relations.

What a POLITICIAN! What a TYRANT!

Clinton was an amateur by comparison.
