Lincoln won a second term. Again, I hope this is an historical allusion.

Wait. He has it tougher than Lincoln? Is it just me, or did I miss the news that half of the country is engaged in armed rebellion?

Thanks Justaham.
The comparison "is hysterical ... that is really laughable in many respects," said Alvin Felzenberg, the author of a book on American presidents. "You couldn't print things today they said about Lincoln.". ..Criticism of Lincoln in his day "was even more vitriolic than what you see about Obama," said Eric Foner, a Pulitzer Prize-winning presidential historian at Columbia University. "Obama is a guy who has a thin skin and does not take criticism well."
How would the POS of the United States react to criticism as vitriolic as, say, the remarks directed at George W. Bush, or George H.W. Bush, or Ronald Reagan?

Lincoln had a record. Lincoln had a job. Lincoln won a war. Lincoln healed a nation. At some point in time, Lincoln stopped campaigning.

Mr. Soetoro may be presiding over a social version of a civil war.

He couldnt hold Lincoln jackstrap{ Assuming Abe wore one}.
But he is breaking a record of abusing Civil Liberties that Lincoln held.
And he is pointing the country towards civil unrest.
But Obama is insane....should up his meds or take more naps.

Yeah, much more difficult, Barry. President Lincoln was a real attorney. He served in the army before the Civil War.

But you can take comfort in this: he was married to one, too.

“Obama is a guy who has a thin skin and does not take criticism well.”

I DO NOT HAVE A THIN SKIN!! CRITICISM DOES NOT BOTHER ME!! LEAVE ME ALONE AND STOP PICKING ON ME. YOU PEOPLE LIKE THE OTHER PRESIDENTS BETTER THAN ME BECAUSE THEY WERE ALL WHITE. I HAVE IT SO ROUGH, YOU PEOPLE CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT.

Tell this effing clown that since 40% of the states with about a third of the population haven't seceded--and the only jerks firing at federal forts are isolated, irate punk-ass Muslims he should just "man up."

What a loser.

The boy who would be king needs to be put on some stronger meds because the cocaine doesn’t seem to be working any more.

What a small-minded, self-absorbed man. He is the only man in the room that does not realize that he is the least admirable man in the room ... and that goes for any room he happens to be occupying, including the oval shaped one in which he is occasionally to be found. What a pitiful excuse for a president.

“A house devided against itself cannot stand.”

For Lincoln it was a nightmare. For Obama it’s a wet
dream.
