Entry: On Lincoln-Bashing Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/on_lincoln_bashing#24905 Post contents: What Lincoln meant at Gettysburg does not translate into a program for global democracy! (Are you now suggesting that this was Abe's position after all? That's quite a change in attitude.) Anyway, you omitted the first sentence in Buchanan's article, which associates Abe and GWB as "wartime presidents" who invoke the cause of global democracy when it suits them. And I commend Buchanan for distinguishing Lincoln's aims and GWB's, but this doesn't change the fact that he still made an association between them on the cause of global democracy.
