Do conservatives for the most part think Abraham Lincoln was a criminal?

Is that really the side of history they choose to side with?
Lib asskicker: I am not sticking up for dixiecrats, but "somebody" used this as an arguement in a previous question.
Lib ass: or you could go to hell
 
Hitler could have easily won the war. I guess in your world that would have made him a great leader.
 
I've read a lot of books on Lincoln and the side that we get spoon-fed in school and by the media does not show the whole story. The only part they choose to focus on and promote is the abolition of slavery. There was A LOT more to it than that. Lincoln did not give a flip about emancipating slaves. He had a different agenda.
 
Lincoln only freed the slaves because it was a good way to hurt the South; he didn't care about them or think of the slaves he owned as people. They were 3/5th of a person like they had always been. It was a liberal action at the time, it's a pity that it was the right choice for the wrong reasons.
 
Was Lincoln determined to destroy America with unsupportable debt? Did I miss that part of history class? Was Lincoln a communist that sat in a church that preached "God damn America" for twenty years?
 
actually conservatives supported abolishing slavery, the poll tax, and supported civil rights dispute the dems kicking and screaming.
 
tough one to answer really. He did break the constitution freeing the slaves by the Fed Govt and slaves were considered property and he did lead the army of the north in an agressive war to thrwart the lawful leaving of the union by sovergn states.

Do you think Obama has the courage to duplicate what Lincoln did?
 
Lincoln was a politician first and foremost. His priority was self gain, self promotion. Like any other politician he used people to satisfy his needs. His concerns for any particular people were limited to what they could do for him. History revisionist have selected snap shots of his life and presidency to promote this idea that he was the great white hope and nothing is further from the truth. Whether he was a criminal or not is not up to debate. He was a politician therefore a criminal.
 
Why should we?

It's funny you should mention that. All the democrats in the cotton states said the same thing because he was a threat to their human property rights (slaves).

You probably also think the Republican Civil Rights Acts of 1865 and 1871 were criminal, too, like the democrats who challenged them in court because blacks didn't deserve rights?

It's only a matter of time before all liberals are seen as racists like you.
 
No Lincoln was a great man especially having enough courage to rid the US of slavery.
 
Teddy Roosevelt is the one they really hate. He tried to get health care for all Americans. Caring about America and Americans is very bad in their little minds.
 
you do know lincoln was the founder of the republican party right ohh you mean because he was part black oh this is just another i cant think of anything he's done right so your a raciest remark
