Not really honestly. It's also hard to say what is racist (when viewing some things Lincoln said) when just about everything these days is spun into calling one racist.

In today's world is Lincoln a racist? Yes.

Was he racist for his time period? No.

I don't have the answer, but one has to think some of his comments on race were more political than his personal views.

In the 1860s he would have lost had he been painted as a man who wanted to free the blacks etc so I think it's safe to assume some things he said were calculated.

And if I'm not mistaken he wasn't even on the ballot in The South.

Abe is my favorite president and do I view him as a racist? No.

Nothing about being an Internet tough guy. I was merely pointing out. Having 4000 posts on an Internet message board is no great acheivement. You might want to delete that little tidbit from the resume. :eek:k:

You come in here with your condescending attitude, and proclaiming your vast powers of reason. The joke is on you, partner. Nobody bought it.

I said I have 4000 posts on another site to show that I don't have commitment issues even though I knew it was a joke. You were no part of that conversation whatsoever and you come in trying to make it out like I'm bragging or something. I never asked for it to be glorified like you're making it sound. I could care less about that. The irony of your condescending attitude makes me laugh. Who's the joke on again?

It seems you made some replies to a few of my posts. You were no part of those conversations either. It didn't stop you from making a reply.

Perhaps you should list all posters who are approved to make replies to your posts.

Hmmm... you might want to check your facts. You quoted me first bud. I was responding to a general question that another poster asked when this shindig began.
