I doubt Spielberg will be have the honesty to portray the line between tyranny and liberty that Lincoln chose to cross, but will probably manufacture another Schindler's List-type hero (mind you, Schindler was the purest type of hero. Not so much for Lincoln).

The Dems were able to fool people like you into thinking there was a surplus by spending the money that was collected for Social Security on other things. Please don't tell me you fell for it.

...and before bushbot left office we were how many trillion is debt?
What you really mean is that after Pelosi and Reid took over Congress (you know, Congress... the government entity that actually spends the money), the deficit exploded.

AND I'll never forget the bot when he came out to tell America we had to 'bailout Wallstreet' liars, crooks, and theives.
You'll have to explain why Obama named the primary architect of that Wall Street bailout his Treasury Secretary. We'll anxiously await your explanation...

"President-elect Barack Obama has selected New York Federal Reserve Bank President Timothy F. Geithner as Treasury secretary, handing the post to a primary architect of the Bush administration's response to the financial crisis, according to Democratic and industry officials yesterday."

I'm a busy man watching paint dry so could some one cut to the chase and explain the grand conspiracy being cooked by Mr. Spielberg (other than it will be release about the same time every other project trying to trade in on the 150th anniversary of the Civil War).
