RE: Commemorating Lincoln's Second Inaugural - 150th Anniversary
Doesn't anyone proof reed any more? Confused

from the Washington Post
"The Lincoln address on display at the Library of Congress was delivered 150 years ago, on March 4, 1965, just a month before Lincoln’s assassination,..."

and "Its famous closing line was, “With malice toward none, with charity for all.”

Not quite... they left something out...
"With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan—to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves, and with all nations."

(and this from a reporter/editor who has worked for the Wahsington Post for 27 years)

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
