Green paint was splattered overnight on parts of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., U.S. Park police say.
They say a patrol officer found green plant splashed on the floor near the famous statue of President Lincoln, and some on the base of the statue, at around 1:20 a.m. local time.
The memorial, on the National Mall, will be closed until the U.S. Park Service can clean it up.
An investigation is under way.
CBS Washington affiliate WUSA-TV says its crew members got as close as they could to the statue and didn't see the paint, but saw evidence of...

My fat fingers are not letting me type this morning. That was supposed to be FR. Maybe its that auto correct.
And I'm sure you'll be able to tell us just how power hungry he was.
You bet, waterboy.
If it were John Deere Green, I’d say that it is a false flag operation trying to frame Billy Bob.

Either that or an evil attempt to smear Deere by Caterpillar.
You Lost Causers are just soooo much fun.
And you are pitiful.
And I'm sure you will be able to prove just how pitiful once you get home tonight and can did through your treasure of Lost Cause lore and produce all Lincoln's tyranny stuff.
The pivotal moment when states list thier sovereignty is a sore spot with me. If you think a powerful central government, like we have now, is good then nothing I say or post will make a difference to you.
And just how did Lincoln interfere with their sovereign rights?
If you think a powerful central government, like we have now, is good then nothing I say or post will make a difference to you.
I don't think it's good at all. I'm just tired of you Lost Causers blaming it on Lincoln and ignoring men like Wilson and LBJ, Southerners who were far more responsible for our current state of affairs than Lincoln was. And ignoring that Jeff Davis was even more of a big, intrusive, central goverment proponent than you claim Lincoln was. In short suck it up, accept that you lost, read some history, then we'll talk
Normal human: Amen! Our country was born in the overthrowing of tyranny, we must not slide back. What cause shall we use to stand behind?
Plantation Elitist: the right to enslave other humans, and make sure it's the good, 'sell down south' type of cruel enslavement.
Normal human: THAT'S what you want to fight for?
Plantation Elitist: Well no, we'll make sure the lesser whiteys around here do most of the fighting and dying of course. But it's for our state's right to enslave!
Being southern has nothing to do with lbj and wilson being turds. Not sure what you were trying to imply wth that.
The fact the CW was the first domino to fall , when it comes to state sovereignty, is apparent.
The entire concept of that war is an affront to states rights.
The fact you can’t see that shows your ineptness.
I don't know. Maybe after Wilson and LBJ and Clinton and Carter and two Bush presidencies, haven't be paid for Sherman by now?
The fact the CW was the first domino to fall , when it comes to state sovereignty, is apparent.
Apparent to Lost Causers perhaps. But the rest of the world needs a little more convincing. Just how was it the first domino to fall?
The entire concept of that war is an affront to states rights.
Just because they rebelled and failed?
The fact you can’t see that shows your ineptness.
Or perhaps that I don't have your imagination?
The station says investigators will review video from surveillance cameras to help determine who carried out the vandalism.
Guess they'll have to determine whether they want to catch the suspect, or if it might be too embarrassing to some PC meme that prevails these days.
He was elected in accordance with the constitution.
What ever he was, Lincoln was not a tyrant.
Or conversely if Lincoln was a tyrant then they all were equally tyrannical.
Off with their heads!
No. He fought the civil war limited by that constitution, against an enemy which violated it at every turn.
We were lucky to have such a man.
"Being southern has nothing to do with lbj and wilson being turds."
You are right,; being in the South has nothing to do with the fact that it was the Democrats slavers who went to war against the Union. The Democrat Party was and is the slave Party.
I guess this just interrupted your viewing of BIRTH OF A NATION or something...
