I think Scrimgeour is more of a Lincoln type - blow off the Constitution for the Bigger Purpose. Not to start a fight or anything ... it's definitely admirable, in a way, and certainly not an indicator of personal evil or weakness.

Uh oh! Careful with that! :-)

Actually, I really don't know enough about Lincoln (other than what I was taught in grade school) to really comment on that. Isn't that sad?

I think my next book should be a Lincoln biography.

It’s always good to find a new subject for reading, and Lincoln is extremely interesting!

I am pretty sure he dabbled in the occult. I mean, just look at all that black clothing! The clearly not pointy hat was a deliberate obfuscation.

That's frightening. My oldest came home from kindergarten and told us that the "South Americans killed Abraham Lincoln."

And we live in Virginia...
