February 12, is the 207th anniversary of President Abraham Lincoln s birth, and Twitter decided to celebrate it like only the social media giant can: with a hilarious hashtag.If you are an avid social networking user, then you have probably come across a quote attributed to President Lincoln or some other famous historical figure and thought, He definitely didn t say that.  It happens so often that it s an internet joke, just slap a quote next to someone notable s face and you have a viral internet meme shared by thousands (sometimes millions) of really stupid people. President Lincoln is often the person in many of those memes, so Twitter users decided to celebrate his birthday with #ThingsLincolnDidntSay:I m excited for the future of my party. #ThingsLincolnDidntSay pic.twitter.com/8rUBVSKSvx  Simar Ahluwalia (@sahluwal) February 12, 2016  In 150 years, the Republican Party will be greater than ever !  #ThingsLincolnDidntSay pic.twitter.com/uCLP0mQUNl  TrivWorks (@TrivWorks) February 12, 2016#ThingsLincolnDidntSay  Brian Williams, what are you doing here at Gettysburg?  pic.twitter.com/3StneMusxB  Vlad Bayon (@misterdish69) February 12, 2016  If this gets retweeted 1 million times I ll end slavery. #ThingsLincolnDidntSay pic.twitter.com/JEueYSYewb  MJ  (@MJGWrites) February 12, 2016Jeez, Mary, I need to see a play like I need a hole in the head. #ThingsLincolnDidntSay  John Fugelsang (@JohnFugelsang) February 12, 2016 Four score and seven beers ago #ThingsLincolnDidntSay  Elizabeth So Totally (@elizablitzed) February 12, 2016Hey, I wonder how my face would look on our LEAST VALUABLE ITEM OF CURRENCY#ThingsLincolnDidntSay  Dreamweasel (@Dreamweasel) February 12, 2016 #ThingsLincolnDidntSay I m a vampire hunter  R IN (@_A_W_W_R_) February 12, 2016There are so many more of them, you should definitely check out the entire thread.President Lincoln is arguably one of the greatest presidents we have ever had and Republicans often like to pretend that he was their president. It is true, he was a Republican, but if he were alive today there is absolutely no doubt that he d be considered a filthy liberal.The GOP is always trying to divide our country, especially the far-right anti-government Tea Party crazies. President Lincoln, on the other hand, went to war to keep the country from splitting apart   that s how much he loved the Union. So it s pretty safe to say that he would not support the Confederate flag waving, Bundy militia supporting, Obama-hating Republican Party of 2016. I will leave you with an actual quote from the sixteenth president, one that the right needs to remember:  A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure permanently half-slave and half-free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved   I do not expect the house to fall   but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing or all the other. Happy birthday, President Lincoln! Featured image from Twitter
