Quote:Eric,war is hell.   That was a nice list of all the bad things Lincoln did to win the war.  Don't be naive.  Worse things have happened in every war in history. 

 

Put all that stuff that Lincoln did to win the war up against Plantation owners owning human slaves for 250 years.   Four million human slaves by 1860.   What a comparison. 

 

And that website.  Wow.   They wish Lincoln had been assassinated 4 years earlier?   You agree with that?  
 

You keep trying to validate what Lincoln did by comparing it to the evil of the plantation owners. The one does not justify the other, the slave holders are not justified by the atrocities the Union army committed against the south. Your victim of the Whig Theory of History. The Whig Theory of History has been equally adopted by the Left and Neo-Conservatives, where the ends justifies the means and all the atrocities that have been committed against Americans by our own government where justifiable as a progressive march towards more liberty and freedom.

 

Lincoln by his own admission didn't care about slavery, that should end the debate right there.
