but they goofed it by making it seem as though they felt “indebted” to Lincoln’s assassination, not the former president himself.
Oops [see Freudian]!

That’s the first REPUBLICAN president. Not the first incompetent kook Teabagger president.

Lincoln would be ashamed and appalled by today’s Republican party.

Elected tweeters, somehow that wasn’t what our forefathers foresaw I’m thinking.
What next, woofers?
To be expected from McConnell and the SSOM (SenateSonsOfMitches).
Eisenhower, too. Just because of the Gazillions made off the MIC by the likes of DickCheenee, Rummy, Wolfowitz, et al ad nauseam.

It’s tempting to say “to be fair, we know what they meant, but jesus christ why can’t they manage to get it right?” Tempting, but I’m not going to…not after 30+ years of atwaterian dogwhistling and code-speak.

Of course today’s GOTP has more in common with Alabama Democrats circa 1865, so they do feel indebted to John Wilkes Booth.

Wow, that’s a bit more than simply a typo. Freudian, maybe, but plain old-fashioned bad proof reading is more likely…surely after an entire day of blasting out anti Hillary tweets a flunky’s eyes get blurry.
But, there’s a consistency to this endless series of GOP missteps, slip-ups, flip-flops, misunderstandings, embarrassments, errors and sexist and racist humiliations that also includes the turn on a dime recoveries abetted by selectively blinkered media. Not that many years ago the entire, current GOP presidential field would have already been removed from consideration due to just one personal infraction much less the several many carry.

Tweeted Freudian slips need their own term. “Freudian tweet” just doesn’t do it for me.
Hmmmm. A tweet gaffe.
Apparently nothing seemed amiss to the person tweeting the original. What cued them in?
