Lincoln wasn’t honorable, he was a ruthless tyrant who wrongly imprisoned people for daring to publicly express opposition to the war. If Obama did the things that Lincoln did, you would be yelling for his head.
Obama’s not stupid.
He can’t imprison journalists, but he can hire them all.
There are folks today that look at the crap Lincoln got away with, see his face on Rushmore, and just burn with envy wishing they could get away with it.
FDR too. Interred all those Japanese and pissed on the Constitution and he’s a hero.
