Abraham Lincoln Said:

from the intro to Dinesh D'Souza book "The Enemy at Home"

"Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step over the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest, with Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years. At what point, then, is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reaches us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die buy suicide."

and

"Congressmen who willfully take actions during wartime that damage morale,
and undermine the military, are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled, or hanged."
