Jason's correct. But then, what did Sam do consistently? He was in favor of
annexation of the Sandwich Islands until he wasn't. He was very gung-ho for
liberating the Phillipines until he wasn't. I'm sure there are other
examples
that one might find. But contemporary zealots on such issues like to use
Twain to bolster their message. And, if ignorance is bliss, this may explain
why
I'm so damned happy.
