You make several salient points and conveniently leave out many other relating to democrat big government schemes (Great Society, Department of Education, Hillary's Healthcare Task Force, etc.)

As for denying history:

"Abe Lincoln formed the party for big government and national state planning."

Abe Lincoln (Whig, Illinois) was nowhere near Grafton, Wisconsin when the Republican Party was formed. The Republicans ran John C. Fremont as their first presidential candidate.

Now, back to your history books...
