    They're both male. They both have heads and eyes. I think they both wore black pants once. Lots of things, can't you see?

    When he does the hat, whiskers, and long coat... and writes his own speeches on the back of envelopes - then we'll talk.

    Good one. Still, what's so similar about them?
    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    I hate Lincoln to.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Sorry, but it was my patriotic duty to forward this to the NSA and FBI - you will now be charged with threatening the life of the Prez, according to the new improved justice department (s).

    Seriously, in the 8th grade (1961) I wrote a piece accusing Lincoln of creating the situation for the Civil War (wtf does one know at 13?). My History teacher accused me of being a "revisionist" (which I had no clue about wtf she was talking about - after all when 13 most thoughts are "original"). Today, if I accused Bush of creating lies to allow the invasion of Iraq, I would again be accuse by some of being a revisionist. Only this time, I would be right.

    This is Cavuto commentary, and it was never reported as "news". He's just pointing out a couple of interesting coincidences. Stop your Fox bashing, liberal. We all know Bush is a moron, and we all dislike him for different reasons. I dislike him because he's too liberal. He expands the federal government and ignores State Authority (marriage amendment and no child left behind). This jackball acts as if the enumerated powers were never written. Plus, he's in support of a foeriegn invasion of American soil.

    Send him back to his ranch where he can hold hands with the oil barons.

    I hope squatters invade his property and camp out in his precious private forest.

    I'm technically not allowed to laugh at this. Seriously though, we just need him out of office, not dead. Jeeze.

    The similarities are interesting, but you have to understand that his life was far from under the day-to-day scruntiny that mass media allow us to put on our politicians today. The country was also largely illiterate. I've found that, so far in my life, the general public perspective of the recent presidents is the same as when they left office, peppered by a few stand-out events for better or worse. The opinions of the left, middle and right haven't seemed to change much on Carter, Reagan, Herbert, and Clinton.

    Interestingly enough, it seems JFK is the one who seems to me to have his legacy questioned the most and ever-changing. Incidentally, he was the first president to establish the relationship between the white house and the press that exists today (although Nixon tried to reverse all of that), so its safe to say he was the first president to truly come under scrutiny from the nations eye in the shallow world of television.

    Shooting him in the ass wouldn't kill him, unless the rumours are true.

    Sorry, but an extended comparison of Bush to Abraham Lincoln invites--no, demands--abuse.

    Priceless.

    For six years, we liberals have been telling you conservatives what an idiot Bush is while you have by and large defended him as a great American President and Defender of the Faith. Now, when you finally realize we were right all along, you jump off his bandwagon so hard you break your ankles, and say you don't like him because he's a "liberal."

    Doubleplusgood reasoning there.

    They're both Republicans? They're supported by the North and celebrated for their defence of minorities who are treated like dirt despite the conventional veiws of the time veiws. Lincoln with blacks Bush with gays.
