    Ol Abe, who tony wants us to believe had a complete turnaround from before the war when he said that blacks would never be equal to whites and tried to get slavery enshrined into the constitution, actually might not have had much of a turnaround at all.

    Abraham Lincoln 'wanted to deport slaves' to new colonies
    Abraham Lincoln wanted to ship freed black slaves away from the US to British colonies in the Caribbean even in the final months of his life, it has emerged.

    Every time actual documents are discovered, it blows a hole a mile wide in the narratives people are fed about Lincoln by all those who wish to use him for political advantage.

    Politifact said the 17 intel agencies lie was true. Politifact lied about that, too.

    The telegraph said that Lincoln wanted to. He was looking into it. Investigating it. Facts.

    Politico uses strawman, says Lincoln had plans to. Then they tear the straw man down.


    Politifact lied about the 17 agencies and in this case they make up a whole new argument so they can knock it down.


    Now that both snopes and politifact have been confirmed as frauds, how are you going to make any arguments, tony?

    Lincoln wasn't sure what he was going to do with freed slaves after the war.Sending some freed slaves to other countries was an option he was exploring and an option that had been explored in the past but the decision was not final.

    Politifact has made thousands of fact checks and only a very small percentage are disputable.

    Dilorenzo has made thousands of statements and only a very small percentage of them are disputable.

    Oh, so that means their reports cannot be considered accurate. Got it.

    I'm glad you also don't consider the NYTimes worth reading since they needed a bailout. I never considered them worth reading either.
