-Caveat Lector-
BF>Lincoln is my favorite among the early figures of this country because he
freed the slaves. No, he was no abolitionist. Abolitionists could not have been
elected President. he was a politician. However, he was a great American
because of what he ultimately did when the rubber hit the road. The bottom line
was that he freed the slaves, while Garrison and Tappan were not in any position
to do it.
Earlier politicians were upholding freedom against England but still upheld
slavery. Later politicians are "pro-choice", upholding equal rights but not for
the unborn. Such hypocrisy I cannot stomach. I would rather have plain-spoken
Lincoln than all the poetry coming from ineffectual people who cower when real
principles are put to the test.

CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
