| That's very progressive of you, Steven. But it doesn't
quite jibe with

War as the first

country"--which would only be

| I didn't say the Civil War was the first point at which
the US "ceased to
| be a free country".
|
| It was the first point you listed when you were asked to
explain your remark
| that the US had "ceased to be a free country".
