Maryland Repeals State Song that calls Lincoln a 'Tyrant' (I heard it on NPR)

Yes! Somewhere on this Forum I brought the subject of this song up years ago. I remember that Laurie was involved in the discussion also. Thanks for the update on it.

RE: Will Lincoln go down in History,as America's Dictator President?
I'd just like to pipe in and say that I was raised in red-neck country here in Southern Maryland, but I never remember hearing that term until the last thirty years or so.

In response to this thread, at Surratt House we try to make people understand Lincoln's necessity to protect the Union above all else, and that required questionable tactics by our modern standards.
