Just saw Lincoln. Amazing film.

So it lacks historical context, in order to sensationalize the political posturing taking place over passing legislation.

Sounds like one for Netflix eventually.

Did it mention that Lincoln was a separatist who wanted to repatriate blacks to Africa and did send thousands back?

Nope.

That was basically early on too.

You do know that Lincoln eventually saw that position as untenable, right?

Oh wait..you are a conservative and hence everything is written in stone and cannot be changed.

In other news Katzndogz, the war against Japan and Germany goes well. Washington might seek a another term as President too.

Here we go......

You're right let the lies and winner re written history stay as is.

Let me guess..

Hitler and Lincoln were both socialists and comparable in their evil.

Likely opinion of big reb.

 

[Desperado]

No I don't get into fiction.

Best part was Lincoln meeting with Confederate Vice President Stephens and telling him to fuck off

As I said the movie is fiction playing to the liberals.

Exactly, Everyone knows that Spielberg does not do non-fiction.

Actually, the movie was directed at Republicans. They have the best roles and it is the Democrats who are the bad guys

You would think the right would love it

A great story, superb acting, thought provoking. Oscar worthy. Tommy Lee Jones deserves a supporting actor nomination.
