As you probably know, Civil War anti-war Democrats were called "Copperheads". If you want to have some fun, the next time you get into a debate with an anti-war type, call them a "copperhead". Odds are they won't know what you're talking about. If it's someone you'll see again, just tell them to look it up. Believe you me, the next time you see them they'll be pissed off and how! More than that, Lincoln changed his war justification part-way through the war. When it started, he said it was just about preserving the union and not about freeing the slaves. Then, as the war went along, he changed it to freeing the slaves. You can use that one too if some lib tells you Bush changed his objectives.
