27. Too funny. Reduced to stealing a liberal movie character.

Reminds me yet again that today's Republicans don't have even one semi-great leader they can point to as their own. Sure, they claim Lincoln for lack of anything else, but he and the new Republican Party were the very antithesis of today's Republicans, and underneath most must know it. They invoke Lincoln's name but reject him. And now Bill Pullman's movie character.

Btw, down here in the deep south most conservatives do not know that the ruling classes didn't allow Lincoln's name on the ballots of almost all states, with most of their great-grandparents' loyally cheering that denial of their own rights. Cons of those days didn't like Lincoln at all, and southern cons were rabid on the subject.
