What I said was, "When Abraham Lincoln was elected and inaugurated, he didn't have a Congress for the first six weeks. He did not, however, call an extra session of Congress."
So what? It was clearly his perogative not to call a special session of Congress. Lincoln was a canny player ---- he was a master politician. Now you won't even let him play the game?
