"Reflect on where we are today. A Leviathan in Washington unrestrained by anything. A Levithan which tramples on the constitutional rights of citizens with impunity. A Leviathan which constantly meddles abroad, maintains military bases in scores of countries and which gets involved in constant foreign wars. A Leviathan which has racked up debts we will never be able to repay and which only ever goes further into debt with every passing year. Lincoln paved the way for this."

Reflect on what you just wrote. You expended four sentences describing the goals and objectives of Confederate Apologist-in-Chief Woodrow Wilson and concluded by pinning them to Lincoln.

Wilson sucked no doubt. He certainly was not a "Confederate Apologist in Chief". I didn't need to pin anything on Lincoln. He pinned it on himself. He was the one who overthrew the balanced system the Founders created in which states were constitutional actors in their own right and reduced them to being little more than subservient administrative conveniences of the all powerful federal government in Washington. He's the one that changed the union from one based on consent to one based on threats and violence.
