Default Who won the Civil War?

Hey, you stupid dimwit, that wasn't a "lie." He overstated it. If he

As I see it , it was not the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

It was not correct. So maybe it was not an intentional lie, but it was not the truth. Posting something without knowing or checking that it is true, is not ethical.

HA-HA-HA-ha-ho!!

Hey, Dan, probably 90% of the "facts" posted here are either slightly
off, or a whole lot off. Do you ever read Gunner's posts? Many, if not
most, are an exercise in creative arithmetic.

Dudu was slightly overstating the case. He gets excited sometimes. g

Sure I read Gunner posts, but Gunner tells tall tails. And some people get excited reading his posts. I do not as he is posting entertaining stuff. I mean who would believe there was a list of people to be killed when the revolution happens.


Dudu on the other hand seemed to be in earnest.

So I think you are comparing Apples and Oranges.
