Peggy's clueless. Lincoln was ruthless in war and politics, even jailing people who spoke out against the war.
Lincoln himself said "My politics are short and sweet like the old woman's dance." Tell me, Ms. Noonan, doesn't this also describe W's response to Webb??

Lincoln is a really a model of no-nonsense pith.
I assume you've read the letter he wrote to Horace Greeley when Greeley was slamming him every day in his paper.

Peggy has now officially forgotten everything she "saw at the revolution".
