JWB to the rescue!

thats dang right
honest abe, your rad as (Y)
the ironic part is that i live in australia and theres a butt load of sh*t going around about some of the policians, dont know if its true
but yeah
good caption though
Hahahaha! I love that there needs to be a wikipedia article to explain who he is to anyone who doesn’t know.
Mr. Booth is one step ahead of you, buddeh.
You mean Lincoln was a Democrat ?
I’m sorry, you must be confused… Lincoln was in fact a Republican.
And here’s a short list (by no means comprehensive, of course) of the people in the Republican party this caption is referring to:
-Republican Senator Strom Thurmond had sex with a 15-year old black girl which produced a child.
-Republican Congressman Donald “Buz” Lukens was found guilty of having sex with a minor and sentenced to one month in jail.
-Republican Congressman Mark Foley resigned after it was found out that he had been making inappropriate contact with male pages and had sexual relations with underage former pages. Several other high profile Republican Congressmen were also implicated in covering up Foley’s inappropriate behavior for years.
-Republican Committee Chairman Jeffrey Patti was arrested for distributing a video tape of the rape of a 5-year-old girl.
-Robert Bauman, Republican congressman and anti-gay activist, was charged with having sex with a 16-year-old boy he picked up at a gay bar.
I could go on forever, but if you really need any more proof, go to Google and search for “GOP party of perverts” and you’ll come up with a rather extensive list of Republican Congressman, activists, fundraisers, etc., that have been convicted or implicated in all kinds of disgusting acts of rape, assault, perversion and inappropriate conduct.
OOOoohhh! And the Demoncrats have been absolute angels? Not one scandal or bribe?
You might want to up your dosage…
Your right…
The Democrats’ crimes absolves the Republicans’ crimes…
*Sigh*
Talk about ingeniously side-stepping the point, Huey…
Lincoln was a rather well documented racist. Go-go, revisionist history!
He must have been drunk when he wrote the Emancipation Proclamation then. Go go subjective history!
No really, he was a rather well documented rascist. By todays standards he would be quite extreme actually.
He was also in the tank for Big Railroad I guess you could call it. He was a corporate whore just like todays Republicans. He abolished states rights and centralized more power in the executive branch than any other president, including GWB. He had journalists arrested and placed on prison ships, detained Federal Judges and even tried to have opposing members of the US congress arrested. He suspended the writ of Habeus Corpus and awarded no bid contracts to his cronies.
If you ask me, Lincoln was THE blueprint for a modern Republican.
Go go gadget brainwashed Liberal!
Actually, more someone with an objective grasp of history.
“I will say, then, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races–that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which will ever forbid the two races living together in terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together, there must be the position of superior and inferior. I am as much as any other man in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.”
or maybe this piece addressed to Northern Black people
“But for your race among us there could not be war, although many men engaged on either side do not care for you one way or the other. Nevertheless, I repeat, without the institution of Slavery and the colored race as a basis, the war could not have an existence.
It is better for us both, therefore, to be separated. …I suppose one of the principal difficulties in the way of colonization is that the free colored man cannot see that his comfort would be advanced by it. You may believe you can live in Washington or elsewhere in the United States the remainder of your life, perhaps more so than in any foreign country, and hence you have come to the conclusion that you have nothing to do with the idea of going to a foreign country. This is (I speak in no unkind sense) an extremely selfish view of the case. ”
Both Abe Lincoln, one before the War, one during it…
uh-huh. Then why, may I ask, did he write the Emancipation Proclamation, or, again, if I may be so bold as to inquire, do so many people actually know him as, not what you’re claiming, a racist, but an advocate for my people? I’m not just another whining nigger, before you get on that soapbox, but I do my research, friend, and I’ve NEVER heard either one of those commentaries….Honestly, this reminds me a little bit of the second National Treasure movie….where Wilkins was trying to malign the Gates name just so he could get fame. You lookin for your 15 minutes of fame, too, pal?
Too late!
Love this one!~
Whoever captioned this, I love you.
