Article is back from 2002, but this is quite a different statue than some of the other terrible things being created after so many have been toppled.

Notably NOT on the Gettysburg battlefield— he not taking part in ANY part of the Union part. Just saying. He is a tangled and confused political backwash of the War, with a LOT to answer for- particularly with the crimes of the Reconstruction which profited greatly his branch of the big R republican fed gov which would have continued if not for the non-conviction/impeachment (by 1 vote) of Lincoln’s VP Andrew Johnson. Seriously- the Radical Republicans were and are remembered in history as thieves, quite distinguished from the post war binding up of wounds and support of the coming expansion of the US world power (Spanish American War etc, and all wars thereafter supported by the descendants of both sides of the Civil, in Unity and Patriotism). Ironic now to have a statue to such a gross political animal.
