From Abraham Lincoln online<\/a><\/p>\n

Shortly before Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated on March 4, 1861, a political supporter recalled the turbulent atmosphere of Washington, D.C. “The air was still thick with rumors of ‘rebel plots’ to assassinate Mr. Lincoln, or to capture him and carry him off before he could take hold of the reins of government.”The burden of Lincoln’s safety fell on the aged shoulders of Lieutenant-General Winfield Scott, celebrated war hero and head of the U.S. Army. He wrote of this duty as “the most critical and hazardous event with which I have ever been connected.” Not only was Lincoln’s life endangered by Southern secessionists, but Scott himself received many death threats if he “dared to protect the ceremony by military force.” Scott rounded up as many soldiers as possible from his scant forces, so when Lincoln rode to the Capitol, a reporter noted, “His carriage was closely surrounded on all sides by marshals and cavalry, so as almost to hide it from view.”<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

By 1861 presidential inaugurations had well established customs. The outgoing president usually escorted the president-elect in a procession down Pennsylvania Avenue to the Capitol, starting at Willard’s Hotel on 14th Street. On Lincoln’s inauguration day 16-year-old Julia Taft and her mother watched the procession from a hardware store because the Capitol might prove too dangerous. “As we took our places a file of green-coated sharpshooters went through up to the roof. The whisper went round that they had received orders to shoot at any one crowding toward the President’s carriage.”<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Julia watched Lincoln and his predecessor ride by in an open carriage. She admitted she “suffered a pang of sorrow at the going of that lovable gentleman of the old school, President Buchanan. Up to that time he had been my ideal of what a President should be.” She noticed the crowd seemed hostile toward Lincoln and heard a woman remark, “There goes that Illinois ape, the cursed Abolitionist. But he will never come back alive.”<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Now lets fast forward to 2017<\/p>\n

\u00a0from the American thinker<\/a><\/p>\n

We will see on inauguration day. Expect massive throngs of furious and desperate goons to attempt to trample the podium, as they do even now on college campuses, whenever any conservative speaker attempts to exercise his First Amendment rights.\u00a0Inauguration day will see the mother of all protests — spell that \u2018riots\u2019 — as Trump\u2019s hand reaches forth toward the Bible to affirm the oath of office.In the first hundred days after that, expect the Democrat minority in Congress to skillfully execute every conceivable maneuver to thwart the will of the electors, to scheme and plot without pause, to poison every act of the legislature, and to frustrate every action of the president.\u00a0They will claw, scratch, kick, bite, and scream like rabid beasts, knowing that their time is short.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They will have no choice.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the Secret Service thought that protecting the first “black” President would be\u00a0 daunting, Well they haven’t seen anything yet.<\/p>\n

Of course every President receives threats from “disturbed individuals”.<\/a> President Obama is no exception.<\/p>\n

Of course when it came to George W. Bush It was open season<\/a>\u00a0,\u00a0 books, movies you name it.<\/p>\n

So why this double standard, assassinating Obama would be considered the crime of the century, while assassinating Bush, and now Trump would be considered an act of heroism.<\/p>\n

Well it all comes down to ideology.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Solzhenitsyn wrote:\u00a0 “Ideology-that is what gives evildoing its long-sought justification and gives the evildoer the necessary steadfastness and determination. That is the social theory which helps to make his acts seem good instead of bad in his own and others eyes, so that he won’t hear reproaches and curses but will receive praise and honors...<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Bolsheviks were just Progressives on steroids.<\/p>\n

But it seems that one liberal lady has finally had had enough.<\/a><\/p>\n

May her tribe increase.<\/p>\n
