Lincoln vs Vallandigham

[Dave Taylor]

It is very hard to compare the political circumstances of the 1860s with those of today, though I would agree that both are incredibly destructive in their own way.

Ultimately, I think the current President, a man clearly incapable of following Gene's request to be "respectful of others," especially towards women, should follow these words from President Lincoln:

"You have generously said to me more than once, that whenever your resignation could be a relief to me, it was at my disposal. The time has come."
