Barack Hussein Obama is no Abraham Lincoln

President-elect Barack Hussein Obama is obsessed with likening himself to Abraham Lincoln:

1. Obama will travel by rail to Washington D.C. as Lincoln did in 1861, with a train trip that will include stops, speeches and crowds along the way.

2. Obama will be sworn in with the same Bible used when President Lincoln was inaugurated.

3. Obama will eat like Lincoln. Some of Abraham Lincoln’s favorite foods will be served. The first course will be served on replicas of the china picked out by then-first lady Mary Todd Lincoln at the beginning of her husband's term in office.

4. Obama will hold a rally at the Lincoln Memorial on the Sunday before his swearing-in.

Why all this Lincoln-y stuff?

It lacks original thought or vision but it does show a somewhat desperate attempt to give a common, irrelevant politician from Chicago some much-needed credibility.

Until Barack Hussein Obama proves worthy of the office of the presidency of the United States, he isn’t worthy of the Abraham Lincoln comparison.

The report at the link below states:

Abraham Lincoln stepped up to the plate and took a stand. He did not say that it was above his pay grade. And this is what makes Abraham Lincoln very different from Barack Obama.
