Food for thought! Abraham Lincoln Today

[L Verge]

That is exactly how I interpreted Matt's first posting also and made comment to that effect in my first comment on this thread. Liz further made reference to Lincoln keeping an OPEN mind. What concerns me today is how CLOSED-minded many have become and how they prefer to be on public dole or to support those who are just lazy.

To me, whether one is liberal, conservative, or apolitical, such an attitude is destructive to individual growth as well as to the improvement of a society as a whole. I think Mr. Lincoln would agree - and if I get to meet him in the after-life, it's one of the questions that I will ask him!!!
