-from Lincoln's March 27, 1842 letter to Joshua Speed (left)

Lincoln shared a narrow single bed with Speed for several years. I've seen it in Lincoln's Springfeild, Ill. digs museaum. There's really no way he COULDN'T be gay. If he had morning wood, that wood would have been up Speed's bung.

But, who knows? Maybe he's one of these (R)'s that does gay stuff but somehow ISN'T gay? You should be PROUD that the first (R) President was a great President and also gay.
