History Repeating Itself?

Copperheads, Then and Now
The Democratic legacy of undermining war efforts.
By Mackubin Thomas Owens

An interesting article at NRO.

James M. Mcpherson in his history book on the US Civil War, "Battle Cry Freedom" has a very good history of the Copperheads in that era.

There seems to be a lot of similarities between the Copperheads of the 1860's and the anti-war movement of the 1960's and now.
