To a Chickenhawk President, War is a Pleasure

John,

"Allow the president to invade a neighboring nation whenever he shall deem it necessary to repel an invasion...and you allow him to make war at pleasure.

If today he should choose to say he thinks it necessary to invade Canada to prevent the British from invading us, how could you stop him? You may say to him, 'I see no probability of the British invading us,' but he would say to you, 'Be silent: I see it if you don't.'"

--Abraham Lincoln, 1848

FYI,
Eminem
