While I think comparing the two is close to blasphemy, Abe wasn't always so honest. In Grad school I was lucky enough to be invited to sit in on a few Lincoln seminars given by a serious historian. One of Lincoln's court cases he won by getting a guilty as hell murderer off. He did it by discrediting the witness. The witness claimed he'd seen the shooter "under the light of the moon". Lincoln shoved an almanac under his nose and asked him to read the weather, which was "foggy with rain". Client acquitted, problem was, it was a two year old almanac. ;) So yeah, BO is no Lincoln, but they are both skinny lawyers fro Illinois.

And like every other socialist/liberal I have ever encountered she is a miserably unhappy bitch.
People like that can't enjoy anything, because nothing is perfect, the woods are ugly because some of the trees are crooked, the Mountains are to steep and the prairie is to flat.
They should just slit their wrists and quit bothering the rest of us.
