'You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity bydiscouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage
payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class
hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative and independence.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.'
Abraham Lincoln

Guess what ? How about mis-truths from Abe.
I hate to tell you but those quotes are NOT from Lincoln.
Try doing a little research before you copy and paste something that you think are facts.

Doesn't matter who said it, typed it, misquoted or emailed it.

The content is not garbage and if you can't see that, there's basically no hope for you as if you think that it's garbage because an american president or Joe plumber did or did not say it then you're missing the entire point of it and will only believe something to be true if a celebrity says it.

It is, in fact, because they are great ideas, that they were associated with a great man.
Re: Ohtayicu. The blogger wasn't proven wrong. The Ohtayicu has demonstrated his own limitted capacity at comprehension.
Re: Exsecratus: I presume your use of "Hussein" is an attempt to inspire bigotry? Unfortunately, for those of us that aren't racist....it's just his name.
Re: Fr8rain: Nice blog!
Re: MrPaul: Ignore them? But...but...it's fun to kick 'm when they're down!

all that matters, is,,, the blogger can spew garbage, if they want. WTF is that? 'Spew Garbage'? I'd like you to explain what is garbage about the statements. Of course, it is obvious that would be out of the realm of possibility for you, otherwise your silly comment would not have been posted in the first place. I'm not saying Lincoln stated these things, but they are true statements.
Geezus where do these people come from...MARS..oh wait, I think it must have been the septic tank!
Thanks Frain

Fr8rain,
I was actually gonna suggest we jam sometime but I have to tell you, you misquote not only was wrong but suggest anybody that employs is just and always does right by the people he employs. One thing that is needed in your quote, a man does not need 7 houses, a true man does not get rich by ripping off the poor or sit by and watch as his fellow men try to keep a roof over their heads while he keeps raising the rent.
Sure, literally its true and if that could ever happen it would be wrong but never would and never will. I mean come on, it was only if your made over 250,000 a year and only a 3% increase on what was over that amount. You dont make that much if you did you surely wouldn't be on this site. Get over it. McCain sealed his doom with his pick for VP, he had no chance after that. His own fault and we are all glad he did.
Obama was the only choice here and the whole world knew it.
Best of luck to ya

I'm not suggesting at all that every employer is just or fair. or every landlord, car salesman, waitress or anyone. Even if someone owns 20 houses or 20 yachts, if they paid for them, they have a right to them. They worked for them.
And yes, it would be nice if they would give a few away to people who don't have one but taking them is not the answer.
It's people and companies that have money who pay wages. If you increase their taxes they'll just lay people off to cover it and if you happen to be one of those people, then you've only yourself to blame.
Obama is not going to be able to honor his promises as it's economically impossible.
The money for his "changes" is simply not there.
His choice of VP wasn't the problem. It was people blindly following someone who has lied, who refuses to supply relevant information, who is known to have been indoctrinated in hate thru his relationship with his pastor, and who hasn't a bit of experience and less than 150 days at work under his belt.
Reckon you can be promoted to president of a company with that kind of resume?
