It was the so-called CSA that brought war in the raw down on their own heads by their cruelty and immorality.
Sorry, Walt, it was Lincoln who showed his true colors in May of 1861 no matter how much of someone elses biased analysis you may hold up as a rebuttal. Besides, do you think a random General (Butler) was picked just because? Nice try, Butler would have earned any treatment he got for his actions in the Hampton Roads area.

After Lincoln was re-elected, Butler was sent packing.
