Lincoln's speech to the Young Men's Lyceum contains some observations which are quite thought-provoking--perhaps particularly so in light of current events.

Recall Mr. Lincoln's own actions during the Civil War though...during war sometimes restrictions will be emplaced. The WWII generation accepted that because they were reminded of the war by stories of great victories and defeats in every newspaper and before every movie. Now we're fighting a war in the shadows, so folks will just have to suck it up because this one ain't on Movietone News.
