Dangerous Times: Gimme a General Who Won't Fight!
James Lewis * American Thinker
It was Lincoln who said “Give me a general who will fight!” That was after the North was defeated over and over again by Robert E. Lee’s smaller and more agile armies. Lincoln’s first generals fought desperately hard, but not hard enough to win. In the upshot, the Civil War dragged out to became our bloodiest war ever, 600,000 dead — mostly white folks. And yes, it was triggered by Christian Abolitionists who made slavery morally intolerable to half the nation.
Lincoln was therefore forced to find generals who would fight, and he found Sherman and Grant, who wreaked terrible destruction on the South. He could see no alternative.
Soldiers who survived the Civil War lived with their painful wounds for the rest of their lives. They had no modern painkillers, no antibiotics, just liquor, morphine and silent suffering. Fifty years after the Civil War, Oliver Wendell Holmes still ached from his near-fatal war injuries.
In stark contrast to Lincoln, who demanded to know the truth, Obama is now firing our most successful fighting general — for telling the truth.
That’s really all we need to know.
Mr. Obama likes to compare himself to Lincoln, but baby, he ain’t no Lincoln! Not even a Ford. Not even a Prius.
Martin Luther King was genuinely like Lincoln, because he knowingly risked his life for a cause greater than himself. And like Lincoln, Dr. King was martyred.
