RE: If Lincoln had not died
So, for two years, Lincoln had carte blanche to suspend the writ? I understand the necessity of the suspension (even though it went/goes clearly against the fundamental principles of our government), but it seems to me that Congress should have acted more quickly...
Since there appears to be a renewed surgence in "executive orders" today, I would hope that our legislative branch will be more alert to possible abuses. |
