Abraham Lincoln was a liberal ?? he said blacks smelled and that the races should never live together. He wanted the blacks to be shipped back to Africa, is that what you and other libs wants ?

I dealt with hardball politics at the highest level of state politics for 30 years. How much experience have you had? I have never been a politician if that's what you mean. But politicians -- on both sides -- are wrong every day, and arguably more wrong than many of us who just have experience in getting things done. I would remind you it was FDR that won WWII. I've always believed (and have stated here numerous times) that FDR was a great war president. But you should get over any notion that Obama is in THAT category. And you certainly should NOT be confused about FDR's involvement. FDR fully comprehended that sometimes war is essential to keeping the peace. Not one post you've made suggests you understand that fact. BOTH LIBERALS. Neither were liberals in the sense of Obama; both understood that war was necessary. And the Jews are the best fighters in the world and Jews are basically liberal. What are you dragging the Jews into this for? You know nothing. I certainly have a better understanding of these issues than you do.

I would remind you it was FDR that won WWII. And FDR kept the military segregated and invented redlining to prevent blacks from benefiting from his home loan and farm loan programs. His liberal Democratic forerunner, President Wilson, segregated the Navy and federal agencies, supported the KKK and was a member himself. And Abraham Lincoln who won the civil war. A free market conservative who said God talked to him. Before the Presidency he got rich representing railroads. And the Jews are the best fighters in the world and Jews are basically liberal. The ones who are renowned for fighting aren't that liberal and vice versa.
