My goodness! How horrid! The president and his family will surely be in my prayers to-nite. He has lead our nation through such great ordeals. I fear his death could lead to a great undoing of his many accomplishments.

What bearing could this have on the war between the states? Could the Confederacy see some sort of sudden increase in support for their cause with President Lincoln unable to govern?

I should think not. Why must you insist the war continue to be some sort of ongoing matter? While there are indeed skirmishes ongoing with the lesser of the southern forces, the competitive phase of this war is now over and there is no reason why this attack on Lincoln should drive any sort of renewed support for the rebel cause.

Let us be honest here. Someone just did this nation a tremendous favor. This assailant took upon himself the task of fulfilling the wishes of those who wish to see freedom from tyranny and the radicals who hold that the races are equal. The tree of liberty must be watered.

Spoken like a man whose greatest achievement in life was making the front page of the Weekly Illustrated Cringe Reader for having his mother comment on the size of his maypole.

Is that real? I absolutely must see this.
