Obviously the fact that Lincoln has been a hero of the commies from the very beginning does mean something to you though, or else you would not be spending the effort to attack the person who pointed this out.

Washington has been used (abused) by the leftists just as much. Remember Uncle Ho --- the George Washington of S.E. Asia? Fidel Castro --- The George Washington of Cuba? Does that mean that George was a commie too?

Nah. I don't know of any granddaddys of communism who sent Washington a letter congratulating him on reelection. Nor do I know of Washington having a response sent back reading thanks.

But totalitarians find so much to hate about Washington. He left power while in perfect health! How could a popular man do such a thing! And all this balance between a powerful central financial force (Hamilton) and largely independent geographic agrarian areas (Jefferson) does not really suit any totalitarian at all.
