The truth can always be found on the internet- A. Lincoln

NOTE: I generally will be posting positive quotes from conservative and/or originalist (founding) thinkers and statesmen. I had been mulling the idea of posting idiotic quotes from leftists, but the general consensus is that such quotations would not be particularly welcome, even though the quotes demonstrate their vapidity rather than promoting their anti-humanity stance.

That said, I realize that Abraham Lincoln has not been totally accepting to many states’ rights advocates. One could make the argument that had the South prevailed, slavery would have actually been phased out perhaps ten years longer; twenty years max, due to inevitable technical advances, but the ultimate result would have been a stronger federation (meaning weaker federal central power) that would have resulted in a reunification once slavery was fully ended.

To that end, I dont want to make posting Quotefalls to be an exercise in judgment. Of course I will never post crap by outright communists and enemy of the state, which includes virtually every present-day Democrat, and in addition, I will avoid the RINO’s like Romney, Bush, and many other Benedict Arnolds.
