I wonder if DiLusional thinks we should feel guilty for winning WW2? After all, that wouldn't have been possible had the north not won their Unholy War of Protracted Crop Burning and Babykilling on the south.

Post hoc, ergo propter hoc?

Not quite; I make no bones about the fact that there are/were atrocities in every conflict. My point is that we are better as a nation today because of the north's victory. So much of history would have been different otherwise and likely we would never have emerged as a world power.

And I strongly refute your question of me being a liberal just because I think differently than the Lincoln-bashers.
