Noticed that your lying ass still didn't cite a source for your so-called "British" grammar rule, you "#Grubered", freelance faggot, Odumbo Minion from Arkansas, and statements made by McCulloch and Chase -- officials in Lincoln's administration -- remain more official than anything your stupid-ass imagines, you "#Grubered", freelance faggot, Odumbo Minion from Arkansas.

And I'll be waiting on that official document. You can provide a link to it anytime.
"The Confederate States of America (CSA or C.S.), commonly referred to as the Confederacy, was an
unrecognized confederation of secessionist American states existing from 1861 to 1865."
"The government of the United States (the Union) rejected the claims of secession and
considered the Confederacy to be illegitimate."
The truth is, that by law the government COULD NOT officially recognize the Confederacy. You are wrong. You have been wrong this entire time. You've hung your hopes on two members of his administration that never officially documented any recognition of the confederacy. Period.
And for those who contend the war was not about slavery, I leave you with a few words from Davis' VP, Alexander Stephens and his now infamous "Cornerstone" speech.
"C.S. Vice President Alexander Stephens declared that the "cornerstone" of the new government "rest[ed] upon the great truth that the
negro is not equal to the white man; that
slavery—subordination to the superior race—
is his natural and normal condition. This,
our new government, is the first, in the history of the world,
based upon this great physical, philosophical, and moral
truth"."
Read 'em and weep, shithead.
