Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord:
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
His truth is marching on.

[television is just wrong]

sad commentary on the state of our nation

[Perdogg]

How ironic. History today repeated a special on how in the 19th century robbers tried to steal Lincoln’s body.

[MNJohnnie]

You weren't in Illinois last week were ya?

[capt. norm]

When liberals congregate they always become uncivilized like this.

Real outstanding citizens.

In Russia they steal the manhole covers

[Dallas59]

Looks like they need extra security now.

[Yardstick]

Mine eyes have seen the horror of the coming of the Left:
They are trampling out the culture that once held at bay such theft;
They hath loosed the hateful slouching that could leave us all bereft:
Their poop is on cop cars.

[Rebelbase]

They buried Lincoln in concrete and rebar the 2nd time.

[max americana]

When libtards congregate, stupidity happens. Speaking of Lincoln, if he were alive today he would back the South judging from what happened to the nation.

“In Russia they steal the manhole covers”

Putin is doing it...says he needs them for his gym barbells...

[jessduntno]

“They buried Lincoln in concrete and rebar the 2nd time.”

Did they cross the rebars?

[South40]

Cemeteries are a favorite target of thieves these days.

The Vandal tribe got the blame for stealing to copper from Rome's roofs. What if their own "Occupy Wattling Street" youths really did it? It certainly feels like a sign of decline and fall.

[BallyBill]

September,??? I guess they don’t really keep an eye on it.

[EGPWS]

Check the Oval Office.

In Russia they steal the manhole covers

Russia? Hell, they do it in every village, town, city and major city in the USA.

Wherever there is a manhole cover, it is only a matter of time until it is lifted and sold for scrap.

In Los Angeles they steal man hole covers, and fire hydrant brass caps

Ask any politician about this, Republican or Democrat (same thing really) and they will tell you, “what we really need right now is MORE ILLEGALS!
