I've told no lies.

I need only reference your recent statements about George Bush and nazi germany to expose the fraudulency of that statement. They in turn make it yet another lie to add to your long list.

You lied about the Harriet Lane -- today.

Substantiate your allegation. Otherwise don't shoot your mouth off.

And while I admire Lincoln tremendously, I don't idolize him.

Your actions indicate otherwise. You are physically incapable of admitting any error on The Lincoln's part - not even the most trivial errors of humanity that even some of the other yankee lovers on here will concede. Your actions indicate that you have extended a sort of infallability and perfection to The Lincoln that he never actually possessed in real life. You have also spoken of The Lincoln as an ideal and a guide for our culture and nation. All of this indicates your idolatry.

Why is it that all I can think of is Charlie Daniels:

"I'm a faithful follower of Brother John Birch,

And I belong to the Antioch Baptist Church."

I haven't broken any commandments in admiring Lincoln. You've broken some in attacking him, though.
