Lincoln: so you're telling me in the future the Republican party is... conservative?

Totally unrealistic, these people could not have possibly sat for the same photograph at the same time. Poor photoshop job at best.

Pretty sure Teddy Roosevelt would have punched GWB in the face with a moose for his environmental stance.

Don Rickles is killin' it tho. He probably offsets Nixon's shitty personality at the party.

he also is basically responsible for millions dead in Congo because he decided to have their democratically elected president murdered by the CIA plunging the country into decades of violence

he was the most unconstitutional bastard in history

actually I don't really think that is necessarily a negative. I think Lincoln is a good example of how ultimately one's leadership is subject to the currents of time, and acts like breaking the constitution aren't innately good or bad. They will be judged good or bad based on the outcomes, and it is not really possible to accurately predict how anything will turn out. At the end of the day he is probably the best (or luckiest) we've had, in terms of his actions turning out pretty as time as unfolded.

Victor Hugo said, "Kings and queens are the slaves of history."

The first sentence of your post seems to not match the rest of it a single bit.

why? I'm recognizing that judgement of quality of something in history can be viewed through different lenses, and there isn't an objective anything. In the narrative of upholding the law of the land set down by the Founders, Lincoln was pretty much the lowest point in history. But from other viewpoints his presidency has enjoyed a pretty ok legacy
