Just a little kick in the butt to get Congress moving. Also, he is supposed to have said the "clothed in immense power" line.
*Nods* Lincoln was in the right for abolishing Slavery, but a lot of the things he did in Congress from what I understand really make "Honest Abe" a misnomer. He really expanded the power of the Federal government and Executive branch if I remember right.
