Today is the l50th anniversary of President Lincoln's address at the Gettysburg battleground. His words were poetic and inspiring; his actions were barbaric and uncivilized.
Lincoln started a war that would decimate the nation -- not to end slavery but to force back into the union the states that had seceded. When we discuss history let's get it right.
