I watched it...I wish that he also had Thomas DiLorenzo on in order to make it a FAIR & BALANCED discussion. Lincoln is NO HERO as far as I'm concerned.

Deo vindice!

Look if somebody wants to make The Illinois Butcher™ a hero, fine. Just don't try make him into some states rights Savior. That doesn't flush....

DiLorenzo is a libertarian gadfly who has been distorting the Lincoln legacy with his feckless drivel for years. But there is no distorting the true motivation behind secession and the Confederacy. They didn’t want slavery to end. And Dilorenzo fits right in. He’s a modern day secessionist with an axe to grind and a seemingly favorable view towards slavery.

So you want a wild-eyed anti-Lincoln loony to balance Lewis Lehrman? Isn't that tilting things a little towards the foaming mouth side if things?

I find it supremely ironic that the Southrons still cling to this motto. Did it ever occur to you that God DID "vindicate the right" in this particular squabble 145 years ago, and y'all just can't accept His verdict.
