#2 I'm coming to the opinion, that these people just like to find some pretty words, string them together, and do believe, "Repeat these words long enough, they will be believe." Or something like that..........

#3 How, Rahm, by taking us into civil war? Certainly not by freeing the (wage) slaves!

#6 Now that you mention it, back in the Memory Hole(tm) you'll find pics from the old Left in which Lincoln was among the pantheon of idols, right next to Lenin.

This isn't These aren't the Lincoln droids you're looking for.

#7 Lincoln? Well, maybe if you consider that Lincoln's policies resulted in the deaths of 600,000+ American citizens, he invaded the South, he destroyed the South for years to come as a result of the war, and he suspended basic citizen's civil rights.

All kidding aside, if you look at all the available lists of best and worst Presidents, most of the those considered the worst Presidents have many traits that are more admirable than those of Barack Obama. Of course Rahm Emanuel would say this as he is vested in Obama's legacy.

#8 I was about to say more or less what JohnQC said. Lincoln was a great President because he put an end to Slavery but imagine if you did the same exact type of devisive actions on behalf of creating indentured servitude? That would be Obama.
