Bill O'Reilly: Slaves who built White House were 'well-fed'
"Slaves that worked there were well-fed and had decent lodgings provided by the government, which stopped hiring slave labor in 1802. However, the feds did not forbid subcontractors from using slave labor. So, Michelle Obama is essentially correct in citing slaves as builders of the White House, but there were others working as well. Got it all? There will be a quiz."
Conservatives are absolutely clueless
So stating simple historical facts are something to be avoided? Tell us oh all knowing one, where did he get it wrong?
Then someone who was from those times should also be believed, such as Abigail Adams, who said:
Two of our hardy N England men would do as much work in a day as the whole 12, but it is true Republicanism that drive the Slaves half fed, and destitute of cloathing, ... to labour, whilst the owner waches about Idle, tho his one Slave is all the property he can boast.
How Abigail Adams Proves Bill O'Reilly Wrong About Slavery
Great, all deflection, you got any quotes that are directed at the specific slaves that were legally used at the WH that refute O'Rilly's statements?
lol, I quote someone who was there, at the time, looking AT the actual slaves,
and that's a deflection.
