Gettysburg Address...and hockey?
Not sure what to make of this, but why not?

RE: Gettysburg Address...and hockey?
It speaks well that someone is smart enough to hook kids on history anyway you can (in good taste). Reading further on that site, it doesn't speak well of our President that he turned down the opportunity to share in the 150th anniversary commemoration of the Gettysburg Address. He campaigned on Lincoln's coattails back in 2008...

I want one of those!
As far as the "turn down" to Gettysburg by Obama- what a shame. Bill Nash |

Whoa. I don't know if that is normal for a jersey ir not- but that is a bit too much, you're right.

RE: Gettysburg Address...and hockey?
I just purchased an Abraham Lincoln bobble head from EBay - featuring him wearing a hockey outfit underneath his traditional long black coat. He is wearing skates. The description for the item mentioned it was a giveaway for a local hockey team. While that is really cool and all- I don't see the connection between Lincoln and hockey- but oh well!

RE: Gettysburg Address...and hockey?
This little play on words is so bad that I will probably be banned from the forum, but maybe this bobblehead signifies all those politicians who pass the puck?
