It's nice to believe that the civil war was completly about slavery. It's nice to believe that everything a politician says is true. It's nice that we had Ab as a president. It's even beteer that he Was patriotic towards his side. Free the slaves, end the war... -- Debating... Shouldn't you have something better to do?

Ofcourse he would arrest someone. Do you want riots in the streets? You want more murders? Heck no. He did what was needed to be done. Another thing is that he didn't KILL the prisoners. Unlike some dictators you mentioned. He was probably one of the greatest president's we ever had. Look throughout the history of America. I could say George Washington massacared some defensless soldiers who were celebrating christmas. But that got him to be president didn't it? I could say that pesidents during wars were horrible dictators for arresting propagandists from the other side. But that was okay for them to do. Infact they almsot had to do it. Don't want your side thinking that they might be wrong. Don't want a war amongst a larger war. And presidents don't have complete control of the countrey. Cops, Mayors,Goveners, politics... A president just has to sign a paper that says "Thats okay." If you got some document about someone arresting a propagandist, wouldn't you be relieved? But hey who am I to say anything. Checkerpaw... and I don't want to get to personal here, but you might as well be saying "White power!" The debates you've started have to do with either saying that the germans weren't killers. That the south should have won. That the "jews" as you so lovingly put ti, should just chill out, cause none of that happened to them. And this isn't a conservative thing either.
