Remembering history the way they wished it had been
You may be among the first,* or even the only to crack wise, smear, insinuate and smirk about the Prairie Colossus of Our Present Day, Springfield Illinois’s Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library And Museum, in a blog devoted solely to this topic.
Touch the Void 
And yes, you may pseudonym-asize your self!
Your anonymous blogger, “Bill,” leads off.

Dr. K’s 100-page Super Spectacular comic blog is digging deep, recalling 1976’s “Challengers of the Unknown” encounter with an as yet to be beloved Gerald Ford and the unaccountably still visible Henry Kissinger.
Dr.K sums up The Amazing Adventures of Kissinger & Ford:
“President Gerald Ford calls on the Challengers of the Unknown to rescue Secretary of State, Nobel Prize winner, and war criminal Dr. Henry Kissinger from an island in the Bermuda Triangle inhabited by dinosaurs, cavemen, and samurai. I’m just going to stop writing now, forever, because I don’t think I’ll ever write a sentence as awesome as that.”
Sadly Lacking 
A supporter of adding Ronald Reagan to Mount Rushmore is taking the cargo cult route, a visual version of building the runways so the planes will come.
In the case of Fred J. Eckert it’s make the image and the statue will follow.
“I want to help hurry the inevitable,” vows the former Amassador to Fiji [and Tonga!], a one-term New York Congressman who took a safe Republican seat and lost it to a Democrat who’s held it ever since.
Jack Kemp calls the result “classy.” 
The race to the bottom continues for President George W. Bush:
“…Bush reached an unwelcome record. By 64%-31%, Americans disapprove of the job he is doing. For the first time in the history of the Gallup Poll, 50% say they “strongly disapprove” of the president. Richard Nixon had reached the previous high, 48%, just before an impeachment inquiry was launched in 1974.”

The Washington Post has a look at presidential history making in the making in Russia, where Vladimar Putin’s camp followers have taken to analogising the post-Soviet strongman with Franklin Roosevelt.
“FDR, according to a consistent story line here, tamed power-hungry tycoons to save his country from the Great Depression. He restored his people’s spirits while leading the United States for 12 years and spearheaded the struggle against “outside enemies,” as the mass-circulation tabloid Komsomolskaya Pravda put it.
Translation: Putin rescued an enfeebled Russia from the chaos of the 1990s, banished or imprisoned dangerous billionaires [unclear if he “welcomes their hatred.”]and regained respect for his newly enriched country on the world stage.
And Roosevelt ran for a third and fourth term because his country needed him. Translation: Putin, too, should stay. ”
If Putin is Roosevelt does that make Bush Stalin? 
Let’s look at the stats:
Underestimated by colleagues?
Penchant for secrecy?
Likes to dress up in uniform?
