Absolutely....Lincoln was just a man...just as George Bush is just a man...a flawed human being, just like the rest of us. He made mistakes. Bush has made many more mistakes, and more severe, that has cost tens of thousands of lives.
The military isn't the "end all and be all"....I wouldn't put my trust in the military, any more than I would put my trust in any one man, outside of God. It is the Congress, elected by the people, that empowers the military...not the other way around....go back and learn political science and government.
How could Congress, using The Constitution and the Bill of Rights as a guide and foundation, ever be "saboteurs" ( misspelled, yet again...pick up a dictionary)?

noun

We owe our allegiance to the flag and to the United States of America (remember the "pledge of allegiance").....not to the military...not even the president, if he's gone mad..and George Bush is crazy as a loon. He is not my president...I have never accepted the legitimacy of his tenure, as it was achieved by "hook and crook", unprecedented, in American history. I didn't like Nixon or Reagan , but they won the presidency 'fair and square"...even Papa Bush won, fair and square, if you can discount the dirty tricks (i.e. Willie Horton/ Dukakis soft on crime tactics).
I know thats hard for you to comprehend... but perhaps one of your cohorts could explain it to you.
George Bush and Dick Cheney are guilty of treason, and other high crimes, for which they need to be impeached. I'm not worried about the Congress, as much as I am worried about the executive branch, as it stands, that has sought to dilute the "checks and balances" of the other two branches of government, as well, as ignore the will and voice of the people. Anyone who cannot see that, or will not admit to that is blind, in denial, or an anarchist... (I know you don't know what that means...so pull out a dictionary , and become enlightened)
