@utmost11 Perhaps because he was great. by contrast, Jeff Davis was a corrupt loser.

@David14Lane How about Dixie let the slaves go, and compensate them for their labor.

...add to that list of Lincoln's crimes: the creation of the nation's first income tax, and the creation of the IRS...

If you were president, WWYD?

Lincoln is Guilty as Charged!
Let Dixie go Free and Live in Peace!

Well. some interesting comments here. Yes, Lincoln was overly idealized as are many of our noble historical figures. One problem I am seeing with the comments here is that we are judging by the thought of our day instead of his ie, the peeps and attitudes back then were so different. Racism was ingrained in that society and don't forget Lincoln was a politician, hence having to speak to engage his crowd.
Judge him by his times, not by ours folks.

how come Lincoln is held as a great hero in all our public school history books? maybe because the dept of education is corrupt?!
Hooray! It's time to out this dictator! i would also nominate James K. Polk, William McKinley, Woodrow Wilson, Harry Truman, Lyndon B. Johnson, and George W. Bush as candidates to be tried as war criminals. They should have all been impeached and sentenced. Thanks for speaking the truth.

It is astounding that the crimes of the Lincoln administration and the US military have been so disguised, excused, and covered up. Had Thomas Jefferson been alive in 1861, he would have called for not only an impeachment against Lincoln, but his death for treason against the US Constitution, and the people of the South.
Of course, to the victor goes the spoils, and the greatest of these is the right to compose the "acceptable" history that will be force-fed to generations.
Deo Vindice!
