Abe Lincoln Said…
Abe Lincoln certainly was wise concerning the actions of Congresscritters. What he said over one hundred years ago certainly applies today especially with John Murtha, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and the other liberal extremists in Congress.

Yep, that Abe was a pistol, all right. Why, he even disbanded a state legislature that did NOT vote to secede, because they did not vigorously support his desire to go to war. (Yes, it was not yet “a time of war”.) Sent in troops, drove out the legislature and installed a puppet regime. Yep. Maryland.
The list of Constitutional precepts ignored, outright violated and trampled upon by Mr. Lincoln during his war, the thousands of Northern citizens whose rights were trampled upon, and more, can and do fill several very factual books. :-)
Not saying Mr. Lincoln wasn’t a great man, but he was also the prime mover of the trend that gave us our current unconstitutional hyper-federalism.
The facts are all there behind all the Lincoln hagiography. Just sayin’.

Intel Sharing Works - ‘Fusion Center’ Strategy…
The bottom line in this strategy is the real-time sharing of information. This has enabled our soldiers (and the Columbian soldiers) to combine each piece of information, no matter how small, so they could put the pieces of the puzzle together…
