Just curious about your statement. This is one of the only times I have every come across someone who did not hold President Lincoln in high regard. I guess I'm a little shocked.

You did hear about John Wilkes Booth, right?

Are you likening yourself to a Presidential assassin?

I guess we all need our heroes.

just trying to give you an example of someone who was not a fan.

hundreds of thousands dead were probably not crazy for him either. He did a number on the constitution as well.

Keeping the union at any cost? I guess that's the ticket to greatness. Most butchers are praised after a while, especially those who won.

just to name a few.

Qin Shihuangdi
Ceasar
Alexander
Gingis Khan
Hitler... actually no, this one does not qualify. He has lost, but his buddy butcher Stalin is still revered even here in the USA.

No one remembers those killed/tortured to death, but everyone remembers "unified" China, Rome, Greece or USA for that matter.
