<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>One, it's a liberal news site. Two, the real comparison is today's conservatives with conservatives in our heyday, like during the Civil War.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>The article states that had the FOXNEWS people been alive then, they would have been as conservative as the conservatives of the day and would have bashed our great (liberal) presidents for their history-making actions.

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>I disagree. There were plenty of people that agreed with slavery back then. So much so that it started our civil war.</div>
