Abe Lincoln freed the slaves. Obama wants to make more........

[Dan(9698)]

Abraham Lincoln was not a “Founder”

He may be looked on as a “preserver”, but all the “Founders”
were long dead before his time.

Your other points are valid though.

[Natural Law]

Obama has a lot in common with Lincoln. Neither puts much stock in the Constitution or the sacrifices of other when they interfere with their vision of the country or the role of the federal government.

[RandyGH]

Historically-literate Americans laugh at the conceit of a run-of-the-mill Marxist-Leninist comparing himself (by inference) to Lincoln. But the unions got hold of the public schools two generations ago and have produced a dumbed down populace. That is one of Obama’s greatest strentghs.

Maybe if Obama grows a beard and wears a tophat, or whatever it’s called, there could be a resemblance./s

[luvie]

Obama, you're no Abraham Lincoln....

Indeed...decidedly NOT!!!

[pepsi_junkie]

I was driving behind a guy with Illinois plates the other day and the state motto “Land of Lincoln” gave me pause to consider how long it is before there is a movement to either replace “Land of Lincoln” with “Land of Obama” or change it to “Land of Lincoln and Obama”. Probably a lot sooner than Obama will prove himself worthy of being held in anything close to the esteem of Lincoln.

You know what they say you can wish in one hand and sh*t in the other.

[silentreignofheroes]

Lincoln did nothing but kill Americans.

I reckon it’s something to look up to.

Maybe 0bama wants to lead the Nation in a Civil War like Lincoln. I’m a fan of Lincoln, but let’s be honest, he did not heal the nation. He waged war on half of it and had no interest in ending the conflict on anything other than his terms.
