North Korea scolds Obama by adopting the voice of Abraham Lincoln

By Anna Fifield and Yoonjung Seo April 11 at 7:51 AM 

TOKYO — We don’t know what Abraham Lincoln would have made of Barack Obama, since the 16th president died 144 years before the 44th took office.

But never fear. North Korea’s propagandists have taken it upon themselves to channel Honest Abe and — surprise, surprise — the report card they give the current leader of the United States is not a good one, especially not when it comes to his policy toward the regime of Kim Jong Un.

North Korea Today, a state publication issued in Pyongyang, has just published a piece titled “Advice from Lincoln to Obama,” which cites the Emancipation Proclamation and alludes to the Gettysburg Address.

“Hi there, Obama. I understand how perplexed you must feel nowadays, but I think this is the time for you to gather your thoughts as a president of a nation,” the North Korean voice of “Lincoln” says.

“A thought came to my mind to give you this advice when I saw you standing in front of my portrait deeply engaged in contemplation during your Easter prayer meeting,” it says.

We usually cut large slack to N. Korea when it comes to kookiness. Lately, though, they are exceeding our expectation and reaching a new height.

The U.S. sure as hell doesn’t need North Korea to tell us how bad odumbo is, we live here and know it all too well.

Perhaps we can get No. Korea to find a deserted island somewhere to test drop one of their dirty bombs...Since odumbo likes to travel so much, we will get him to that island early. Perhaps a few rounds of golf while he waits.

Ironic criticism, considering both Soetoro and North Korea have undoubtedly learned many of their propaganda spreading tactics from Lincoln.

Thank you TLR, and you’ll note that the hand is lighter than the face, since Obama IS a half-white/half-black mutt! lol

It doesn't? We do?

Then how did he get elected twice and why has he not been impeached?

Kim Jong Un and his merry band of fellow ‘elites’ mirror self-appointed elites around the world. Within their small world the craziness makes sense - - to them. To the rest of us it’s plain old fashion nuts.

Uh, yeah we do. Abraham Lincoln was highly racist, and considered blacks inferior. His intention was to ship them to Liberia or Brazil.

By modern standards, Abraham Lincoln would be regarded as a white supremacist or white separatist at the very least.

The fact that Barack Obama has been an idiot, and will go down as one of the stupidest Presidents in history, would also influence Lincoln's assessment of him.

Lincoln would wonder how we could have been so stupid as to let this ignorant, stupid, affirmative action clown act into such a high office.
