Typical right-wing opportunism then? Nowt much changed since then, just tell everyone what they think they want to hear. Then when it comes to the end-game, hopefully it'll be someone else's problem. Lincoln left the whole sorry mess to Democrat Andrew Johnson to sort all the crap out.
Nowt much has changed really |

Change right wing to left wing and you can describe the last 2 labour governments I've had the misfortune to live under in this country. |

I wouldn't call it opportunism really. It was a calculated move after Antietam. Lincoln had always planned to issue the proclamation after a Union victory.
As for seeing it through, well he was assassinated with 3 years left of his term, as I am sure you know. |

No, just interested in the similarity between what you post and certain Wikipedia entries. |
