Honest Abe

Is honest still, perhaps more so:

Congressmen who willfully take actions during wartime that damage morale and undermine the military are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled, or hanged.
     — President Abraham Lincoln

H/T

UPDATE: Seems I've been duped. Apologies to all.  President Lincoln, apparently, never did state the above.  Too bad.  It's a damned good sentiment. 

Thanks to the commenters for pointing this out.
