Rep. Pelosi's apparent ignorance regarding the contrasts and similarities between these two Presidents is staggering (but not unexpected):
(1) Lincoln did not give a damn whether the slaves were freed or not, as evidenced by the following statement he wrote in an 1862 letter to Horace Greeley:
"My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that. What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps to save the Union; and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union. I shall do less whenever I shall believe what I am doing hurts the cause, and I shall do more whenever I shall believe doing more will help the cause."
And where is the evidence that Obama ad-Dajjal either really has compassion toward these millions of immigrants or is concerned with saving the Union? His actions appear to be designed mainly to appease his corporate backers and to help save the Democratic Party.
(2) Lincoln freed the slaves in the hope that the former slaves would rise up against the governments of the South and thereby shorten the Civil War.
Obama ad-Dajjal appears to be granting amnesty in the belief that these millions of new potential voters will rise up against the Republican Party and thereby allow him to further gut the US Constitution and hamstring the US economy, once again mainly for the benefit of his corporate backers and the Democratic Party.
(3) Ironically Lincoln freed the slaves only in states which were at the time in rebellion against the United States.
Obama ad-Dajjal is granting amnesty in states which are in rebellion to him, the tyrant Barack. The fact that he has kept secret the locations to which the recent flood of immigrant children were sent suggests the possibility that those locations were chosen to gain political advantage.
(4) Lincoln acted like a tyrant who tolerated no criticism of his policies. He even went so far as to banish across enemy lines a former Congressman who was critical of Lincoln's war against the South and of his tyranny in the North:

Obama ad-Dajjal, of course, is even more of a tyrant when it comes to criticism. His administration has used the Espionage Act to prosecute more whistle blowers than all other administrations put together:

Yes, Obama ad-Dajjal is another former Congressman from Illinois. Like Lincoln, he is a tall and lanky physical freak. Like Lincoln he is as hated as he is loved. And like Lincoln, he appears to be ready to plunge the nation into war to achieve his goals.
Only this time, no one can reasonably claim his actions are intended to save the Union. The things he is doing can have only one purpose: to destroy the Union.
