"...if God wills that [the war] continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn by the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said, 'The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.'"

Abraham Lincoln. The greatest President the South ever knew.

In other words when things go bad blame your own sin and blood soaked war on God. Typical Lincolnian nonsense.
