The Civil War was certainly fought over slavery. Its essentially all Lincoln talked about, thought about, worried about.

Slavery was certainly the essential cause of the Civil War, but Lincoln was only concerned with preserving the union - not eliminating slavery.

He said (paraphrased) "If I could save the union by eliminating slavery in all the states, I would do that. If I could save the union by eliminating slavery in none of the states, I would do that. If I could preserve the union by eliminating slavery in some states but not in other states, I would do that."

You are an idiot if you extend your 21st century sensitivity over racial issues to the normal men and women who lived their lives in the 19th century. Those 'toothless' ancestors - both from north and south - were products of their times and they were genuinely honorable people defending their homelands - just as honorable people have done since the dawn of time.

For you and the rest of your idiotic ilk to disparage their motives and character is beyond stupid. And that is the kind of stupid that cannot be cured. It sucks for you that you are that stupid. You cannot be fixed. You will always be made fun of for you simplistic stupidity.
