"Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against THEM, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort "By killing fellow Americans. Tell me what is the definition of treason?Lincoln was elected President of the United States, and he preserved, protected, and defended it.My previous post addressed Dishonest Abe’s intentions. I did not address the Confederacy’s intentions. I agree...the South wanted to continue slavery, as did Dishonest Abe.
Abe was the aggressor. If he doesn’t invade, there is no war.
Have you considered that war could have been easily avoided, had Abe not been such a tyrant? The entire western world eliminated slavery without bloodshed.
Your pretense that he was the aggressor in attacking the nation over which he presided and your fantasizing about his intentions are noted.
In other words, exactly what Lincoln did. He made war against "them."
