Lincoln has already gone down in history as one of the greatest Presidents in our country’s history. Thousands of books have been written about him, many places named after him, and a great monument to him stands in our nations capital. In the hearts of all true Americans he is revered in alongside the founding fathers. He was the leader that finally reconciled our Declaration Of Independence with our Consitution and created a “new birth of freedom” in this country.
The delusional ravings of a small and petty man such as yourself will have no effect on his legacy. As we say in the military, you are not fit to polish his boots.
You also mentioned that Abe was “executed”. Please correct that.
In addition, getting back to Lincoln and Taney, are you familiar with who authored the following passage?:
“Whatever may be the force of the decision of the Supreme Court in binding the parties and settling their rights in the particular case before them, I am not prepared to admit that a construction given to the constitution by the Supreme Court in deciding any one or more cases fixes of itself irrevokably [sic] and permanently its construction in that particular and binds the states and the Legislative and executive branches of the General government, forever afterwards to conform to it and adopt it in every other case as the true reading of the instrument although all of them may unite in believing it erroneous.”

You have been brainwashed by the Marxist Lincoln Cult.

No true American would revere a blood-thirsty tyrant and war criminal.

Lincoln despised the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution. He was a power-mad crony-capitalist, FIRST, and he would destroy anyone who got in the way of his ambition!

Says the rabid Lincoln hero-worshiper, who wouldn’t know the Constitution if it whopped him upside the head. You are a disgrace to the uniform.
Mr. Kalamata
Early in my career (1980s) I met an older man and we worked in the same office building; traveled on company business together a time or two; I had meals with him and his wife.
Reading his obituary several years ago I learned something I never knew: he served in WWII with Merrill's Marauders and was awarded the Silver Star.
It is strange how some men can never seem to work their military service into a conversation and some can.
