1.

That African slavery in the Territories shall be recognized and protected by Congress and the Territorial Legislatures.
2.

That the right to slaveholders of transit and sojourn in any State of the Confederacy, with their slaves and other property, shall be recognized and respected.
3.

That the provision in regard to fugitive slaves shall extend to any slave lawfully carried from one State into another, and there escaping or taken away from his master.
4.

That no bill or ex post facto law (by Congress or any State,) and no law impairing or denying the right of property in negro slaves, shall be passed.
5.

That the African slave trade shall be prohibited by such laws of Congress as shall effectually prevent the same.

So that is your idea of small government, that the federal government will force states to protect slaveholders from their slaves, where ever they may chose to go, and forbid states. This would have the federal government provide a marshall to spread the female slaves legs so the slave owner could more easily rape her. That is what is meant by “right to slave property”.

Are you ashamed yet? Are you capable of shame?

You've lost it. The discussion was Lincoln's platform sanctioned government supported industrial iterests. Employing Dem tactics of hysteria and theatrics doesn't work with me. You should be ashamed.

Would you like to re-think your argument supporting Lincoln's platform of crony-capitalism and Big Government?
