Since the big-eared wonder boy fancies Honest Abe so much:
“I can’t spare this man, he fights!” Lincoln, to Grant’s critics. [That's why Limbaugh's liberal critics hate him--he fights.]
About complaints that General Grant drank too much: “Tell me what brand of whiskey that Grant drinks. I would like to send a barrel of it to my other generals.” [Tell me what painkillers Rush takes, I should like to send a box to each of the Republican elected officials.]
“If you don’t want to use the army, I should like to borrow it for a while. Yours respectfully, A. Lincoln.” Letter to General George B. McClellan, whose lack of activity during the US Civil War irritated Lincoln. [If you elected Republicans don't want to stand up to Obama, do you mind if we rank and file do?]
“What is conservatism? Is it not adherence to the old and tried, against the new and untried?” Speech, 27 Feb 1860. [Hush up young un! The Messiah don't wanna hear none a dat dere conservative talk now.]
