So here's my original post... go ahead and list the lies, gramps.
"It must be difficult for you that Lincoln took away white Southerners' rights to start your own country where race-based slavery was universally legal. The rest of us US citizens are grateful for Lincoln's leadership, and he remains universally viewed by scholars as one of best Presidents in our history."
*cough*
That's what I thought, Juicebox.
It's as if you enjoy a daily beatdown.
Evidently not the right amount if we're having to do it again 40yrs later. Maybe it was a waste then...

The term scholars these days has about the same luster as used car salesman. You mean people who have spent their entire lives in academia echo chambers, not exposed to any dissenting opinions? . Never held a private sector job? I bet Claudine thinks Lincoln is swell.

Yeah because the rolling stone is definitely a source of honest, unbiased reporting. So you been cashing those Zelensky paychecks? How does his boots taste?You know it's been a bad day for the Russian disinfo sphere, when they have to circle back to the cocaine nonsense.

Pro-Russia Social Media Accounts Spread Obviously Fake Zelensky Cocaine Video
A video spreading across social media of Zelensky with cocaine on his desk is, of course, fake, the latest in a smear campaign against him.www.rollingstone.com

When Reagan took office in 1981, we were about $1T in debt. When he left in 1989, we were about $2.8T in debt. $1.8T increase. Hard to say he spent “trillions” on stopping the USSR as I’m certain that wasn’t the only expenditure over the course of his eight years.How many Trillions did Reagan and our country spend on stopping the USSR?
You a Republican, fool?

You have more faith than I do in learning our lessons. I think the MIC and the .giv (that’s intentional) are addicted to sticking their nose into anything and everything. I’d be happy to see Ukraine handle Russia and remain Ukraine. If they can’t do it with the now $175 billion (after this latest aid package), then I’m afraid we’re just p*$$ing in the wind.So he almost tripled the debt to defeat a country that was going to bankrupt itself anyway, and the money that he did spend went to right wing militants in Nicaragua and El Salvador who murdered priests and farmers/The Iranians and what would eventually become AQ. One of these days we’re going to learn our lesson. This never ends well.
Curious. Whom in your estimation would be a good judge of a prior President if not a "scholar" and/or historian?The term scholars these days has about the same luster as used car salesman.
