Did you read the Snopes link at all? The part where Lincoln's personal secretary claimed that the letter cited in your reference was a hoax? Probably not. It is always better to do your homework before you start a new thread. Defending a blunder is much tougher than avoiding it in the first place.

Funny, upon tracing the source, your Snopes bullsmack don't play. I invite anyone interested to investigate for themselves, including Snopes, but not limited to Snopes. Is it unusual to realize that Lincoln distrusted corporate power and championed the cause of the working man? Or, Hoot, in your tunneled vision, is that also socialism. You're some piece of work.
