Would you listen to yourself? That is called “mincing your words”. Also, why do you now twist the words to speak of slavery in the “Union”? Lincoln was speaking to the United States of America. Do you have an agenda? Anyway, I have lost interest in that for the moment. I have told you before that anytime I find you in a thread repeating your lies I will call you on it. Fair enough? So, why did the Slave States secede?
How is it twisting words to speak of "slavery in the Union"? What the H3ll do you think the Corwin amendment was going to protect, and where do you think it was going to protect it?
SLAVERY, AND IN THE UNION!
Why do you come up with these bizarre attempts at nitpicking? That isn't even a nit. It is factually correct that the Corwin amendment was going to protect slavery in the Union.
I have told you before that anytime I find you in a thread repeating your lies I will call you on it.
You're nuts. You repeat some absolutely correct thing that I said, and then you call it a lie? Yes, Lincoln supported the Corwin amendment, and the Corwin amendment would protect slavery in the Union.
And I don't give a sh*t why the slave states seceded. Rights do not have to come with explanations. If they did they wouldn't be rights, they would be permissions.
HandyDandy: "That is a lie, and I certainly hope that any reader might not happen upon that total distortion of the truth and take it at face value."
HandyDandy to DiogenesLamp #566: "I have told you before that anytime I find you in a thread repeating your lies I will call you on it.
Fair enough?"
BJK: Right, thanks!
That's what these threads are all about.
