Freedom and Federalism

- Tom DiLorenzo -

So Jim, your still pushing the same old garbage I see.

Abe married Mary Todd the daughter of a prominent slave owning family in Kentucky in 1842. Had he any morals and conviction on the subject of slavery he would not have married her. There are so many references to Lincolns indifference to slavery that when combined it's obvious to any third grader, that hasn't been spoon fed the usual crap, that Lincoln did not go to war to free the slaves nor was that part of the agenda. Seriously Jim, take your head out of the sand and stop believing the propaganda and stop berating anyone that has the courage to tell the truth about what really happened.

His own words:

“I would save the Union. I would save it the shortest way under the Constitution. The sooner the national authority can be restored; the nearer the Union will be "the Union as it was." If there be those who would not save the Union, unless they could at the same time save slavery, I do not agree with them. If there be those who would not save the Union unless they could at the same time destroy slavery, I do not agree with them. My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that. What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps to save the Union; and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union. I shall do less whenever I shall believe what I am doing hurts the cause, and I shall do more whenever I shall believe doing more will help the cause. I shall try to correct errors when shown to be errors; and I shall adopt new views so fast as they shall appear to be true views.”

These are not the words of a man led by his convictions and no moral back bone is present. Leadership does not mean towing the party line, it creates it. Abe Lincoln was no hero, heroes do not back down from what’s right. Heroes do not attack others to simply secure wealth. Heroes do not drive others to the point where they feel they have no choice but to attack. These are the actions of cowards. These were the actions of Abe Lincoln. That said, what does that make Lincoln?

Début de l'article :The idea of states' rights is most closely associated with the political philosophy of Thomas Jefferson and his political heirs. Jefferson himself never entertained the idea that "states have rights," as some of the less educated critics of the idea have claimed. Of course "states" don't have rights. The essence of Jefferson's idea is that if the people are to be the masters rather than the servants of their own government, then they must have some vehicle with which to control that government. That vehicle, in the Jeffersonian tradition, is political... Lire la suite
