Lincoln was our first gay Republican President. When (R)'s were the "progressives"! Today, Lincoln would certainly be a (D). These pitiful (R)'s wait for their party to return to it's roots! online.logcabin.org

"Hint.....Lincoln was republican." Not true. Or, at least, the much lesser part. The biggest reason was Reconstruction. Which was imposed by Republicans.

JFShepard, > We're talking about what the term "state's rights" means to southerners who used it the Civil War era and who use it now. So anyone who believes in "state's rights" must believe in slavery because the Confederacy used that argument? And anyone who even mentions that phrase now should be condemned for playing to racial fears, just like Reagan supposedly "knew" when he said that phrase? This is nothing more than a Bob Herbert hit job, backed by his politically correct cohorts on the left who repeatedly demonstrates nothing but contempt for the Deep South. Tenchusatsu
