Bush v. Lincoln: The Thin Line Between Foolishness and Wisdom

Once again, the professional fools at the Daily Show show more wisdom than the media's wise-men.




The Daily Show piece is a subtle warning to those who care about Lincoln's legacy: When pundits favorably compare George Bush to Abraham Lincoln, they not only improperly elevate Bush, they also unfairly diminish Lincoln.

    In four short years George W Bush has turned our country from a prosperous nation at peace into a desperately indebted nation at war.

    Since September 11, the Bush Administration has repeatedly exploited the threat of terrorism for political ends.
