Hi, dukimoto:

Well, well - we learn something new every day.  I just did.

Good post.  You are quite correct.  Lincoln apparently never did make that statement.  Pity - it had always been one of my favorites, (Reagan's too, apparently :-)

Now, what Lincoln apparently DID say was this:

"Property is the fruit of labor...property is desirable...is a positive good in the world. That some should be rich shows that others may become rich, and hence is just encouragement to industry and enterprise. Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another; but let him labor diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built." The Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln edited by Roy P. Basler, Volume VII, "Reply to New York Workingmen's Democratic Republican Association" (March 21, 1864), pp. 259-260.  

Different words, perhaps, but I submit the same sentiment.

Also, you wrote:

I caution all to keep an eye on the national debt. Anyone with eyes that see can easily see that the American people have been sold out by those in Washington.  Ready for Change?

Ready for change?  Sure.  Ready for Obama style change?  No. 

Do you REALLLY think a President Obama, along with a strong Democrat majority in BOTH houses of Congress, is going to produce a SMALLER federal deficit? 

If so, there are bridges galore that you may be interested in purchasing ;-)  Regards.
