I have a cartoon bashing Abe Lincoln and the Republicans for wanting a black man as president. Another cartoon labels Abe and the Republicans as a spendaholic with a hand cranked printing press printing money in the office where the cabinet met. One cabinet member tells a soldier to lock sombody up for defaming the government even though it was just bad words said about the cabinet member.

I thought I had linked the source; I'll have to find it. Thanks for whigging out on that one, Jonn.

Just one small point, though. That anti-Jackson pamphlet couldn't have been Republican. It was thirty years before there was a Republican Party. But I know you put that one in there to test us, right, Wordsmith?
