Is it time to remind Republicans of the words of Abraham Lincoln?

These fools are saying "the people of LA etc. "can't rely on the Government for everything" as it relates to the disaster in the south?!

It might be time to remind these idiots what one Republican President had to say about the role a successful Government has in people's lives.

"It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." ~ Abraham Lincoln - Gettysburg Address 11/19/1863

7. Before I clicked this thread I thought you were gonna say...

"You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time."

Because they seem pretty slow in remembering that one!
