So...now he's Abraham Lincoln...

[bridgit]

is that the spin: Abraham Lincoln, is that to go down in history as a fact, who will stand to refute it? from spoiled, failed, frat boy, "clown of the family" (admitted by his own brother), wannabe oil tycoon/tyrant, boy king/caesar.........to Abraham Lincoln?

how little do republicans care for their history

1. What's playing at Ford's Theatre?

[bridgit]

2. Waiting for Godot, perhaps...

[Cobalt-60]

4. If it isn't the musical version of Fartman

we'll never get this clod to attend.

6. a double feature with: Blankman...

15. (GMTA) That was my very first thought when I heard the (insane) comparison.

Send that boy to the theater. :evilgrin:

3. Lincolnian! Churchillian! More like L.B. Johnsonian.

[bridgit]

19. sure, both Texans, both heavily leveraged in KBR...

:thumbsup:

5. Hallelujah! He's the great emancipator!

We all know how that ended. The closest he ever got to Lincoln was standing on the deck of the U.S.S. Lincoln and declaring mission accomplished.

[bridgit]

18. yep, i like Oliver, "He'll have to reinstate slavery to emancipate the enslaved...

all over again." :rofl:

[acmavm]

7. Who in the world was stupid enough to compare him to Lincoln?

[bridgit]

8. it was in the news & following commentary earlier this very evening...

[salin]

11. whatever fool made that comparison - needs a history lesson,

a dose of reality, and *not* to be showcased on tv. What a ridiculous comparison.

[bridgit]

12. too true, friend, it had already made it's way into parody on the daily show...

this evening and that was the only up lifting part of it all...try to see it it is funny with John Oliver :thumbsup:

[salin]

13. have to wonder why he *had* to make this speech before the SOTU

I mean it had already been postponed for a couple of months - what is a few more weeks?

[bridgit]

17. good question...

the rove, zero effect perhaps

[Skidmore]

9. Congress needs to take his dress-up trunk away from him!

NOW!

[bridgit]

14. yup...

[izzie]

10. He could have used Truman and Korea. Yar that is funny.
