Historic Hindsight

Americas war on drugs from pre-war through the Nixon years.

Lincoln calls for 75 thousand troops to suppress the War of Southern Aggression!

This means War......but only on paper, because a declared war would mean acknowledging the Confederate States of America as a real thing.

This week the Confederates give Union forces at Fort Sumter a option....evacuate or be fired upon!

Who will ever stand and fight for the sheep on Falkland Island when a crazy military dictator tries to take their wool?

Lincoln tells Scott to kick rocks as he demands Fort Sumter and Fort Pickens to be reinforced while the dirty rebels shoot at U.S. boats for the 2nd time!

This week Gen. Scott makes a traitorous comment by suggesting that Fort Sumter be abandoned.......

Lincoln has to make a decision whether to resupply or abandon Fort Sumter.....meanwhile Major Anderson would just like some food and bullets....

When Mathew Broderick lead the first combat ready African American Troops against the most crucial fort in Civil War history....oh crap...that's Glory.......

Lincoln ignores the Southern Gentlemen and faces the dilemma of what to do with Fort Sumter.
