Remember the lengths Lincoln had to go to. He thought the war had won an eventual peace, when, in fact, the same evil that was temporarily overcome has risen from purgatory and plagues us today.
Good comment Jeri. The same evil has risen....... And what is the motive? The Slave owners had a lot of power, i.e. wealth. Today the power of the minority is wealth. And the only way to maintain that power is to undermine democracy. The conservative mentality is to preserve the rights of the wealthy. Nothing changes same old same old. Alito and Thomas are more than a disgrace. They are on the Court because elections have CONSEQUENCES!! This is what conservatism has wrought. In order to get elected they need an electorate that is misinformed and lacks critical thinking. The level of ignorance of the American voters can never be UNDERESTIMATED.
A road to where we are in the last 15 years was Citizens United, then Russian interference in 2015 2016 election, then Comey's Hillary laptop use right before the election, Trump putting 3 SC members after McConnell refused to bring Obama's pick, Garland, forward to the Senate because it was too close to an election, but put Amy Coney Barrettt up and on the SC while Early Voting was already started in some states, etc etc etc!!! And here we are! And I say again, where is the OUTRAGE!!!
Sandra, what really incenses me is that Comey chose to reveal an ongoing investigation into HillaryтАЩs laptop twice while keeping silent about the investigation into Russian ties to, and assistance for, 45тАЩs campaign.
Boy, did chump prove what a cretin he is. Instead of being grateful to Comey, he trashed him unmercifully. A lesson to any who bet on him, except the Heritage Society billionaires of course.
Four score and seven years ago, ICYMI, our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, IMHO, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal, FFS.
If I recall, another letter by HCR detailed how Lincoln had to fight, fight, fight to push our nation to outlaw slavery...and then it was a fight, fight, fight to establish an infrastructure to combat racism....one that has been pushed back on so many levels....by our own Supreme Court.
Just as Lincoln was exactly what was needed in a president at such a critical time in history, Joe Biden is exactly the president we need right now

Yes, exactly Mary!

When you watch Fox nonstop, you are ignorant, and proud of it. Rupert has changed not one stripe since the big payout.
Good thing Lincoln had no Social Media.
David Sea: I would give almost anything to be gifted with the "tweets" of a live Abraham Lincoln!!

Yes! Best president of my lifetime.
Yes, he is. We need to work like heck to see he gets re-elected.
