the claim of the DYs that lincoln "preserved the union" reminds me of the claim of a military officer of the RVN period:

"We destroyed the village in order to save it."

in the case of "lincoln, the TYRANT", it was FREEDOM, rather than a hamlet that was DESTROYED.

"We destroyed the village in order to save it."

That alleged quote was manufactured by a journalist. It was never said.

it was FREEDOM, rather than a hamlet that was DESTROYED.

The so-called "freedom" to deprive black men of their freedom was destroyed, indeed.

How fascinating that you feel the loss of that particular so-called "freedom" so deeply.
