A handful of 'out of context' quotes without regard to the obvious truths of history is pretty much Walt's whole existence. Did you notice that the tiny handful of self appointed scholars who were around here bashing DiLorenzo's excellent new book a couple of weeks ago tucked their tails & completely disappeared after GOPcapitalist posted his list of Lincoln quotes on tariffs?

I'm a little confused on why you and DiLorenzo rip Lincoln on the tariff when among the first actions of the confederate legislature was to slap a tariff on anything and everything that they imported, at rates higher than those imposed by the Federal government prior to the war.

The self proclaimed "scholars" fall silent for awhile thinking that readers have forgotten how they were shown to be fools. They'll be back, trying to put forth the same old garbage as though it hasn't been refuted before. They always do.
