Presidential Morality
By: G.G. Stoctay PhD (Historian)
Elmer Miller (Statistician)
Roy Cohan (Political Editor)

The conservatives have been making a fuss about what they call "morality" in politics. By that they mean sex. Like most neurotics, the conservatives are obsesses with sex. That's doubly true for the Christian-conservatives: sex and money.

With a statistician, our historian has made a non-partisan assessment of the 20 most recent US presidents. They assessed not just the presidents' sexual morality, but morality generally. In reality, sex is a trivial consideration in national politics. Most normal men (all the presidents so far have been men) have had mistresses and led active and promiscuous sexual lives. In the case of Abraham Lincoln, (1809-1865, served 1861-1865), the first Republican president, his closet homosexual affairs are now well known. More damning, of course, is the slaughter of over half a million Americans which he caused.

1. sorry, but Lincoln didn't cause the Civil War

the Southern fireeaters in South Carolina started the War. In 1864, when it looked like McClellan would win the Presidency, Lincoln made a plan to step down early and let McClellan make a peace with the confederacy.

No, I'm NOT a Republican. But I AM and remain an ardent defender of the Union, as were my great great grandfathers. Personally, I feel the racist, elitist mentality of the Southern planter class is alive and well in the current Republican party. Lincoln's Republican party has been dead for a long time-it was killed off during the Gilded Age.

2. Saying that Lincoln 'caused' the death of half a million is non partisan??

Yeah, right, let's get into that again.
