A political cartoon of Andrew Johnson and Abraham Lincoln, 1865. The caption reads (Johnson to the former rail-splitter): Take it quietly Uncle Abe and I will draw it closer than ever!! (Lincoln to the former tailor): A few more stitches Andy and the good old Union will be mended! (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Civility ~ Formal politeness and courtesy in behavior or speech.

With all the hoop-la we’ll hear today, maybe a trip to the Fork and a Webster’s Dictionary will have proved positively profitable for me… maybe for you too. After all, quoting Debbie, who quotes honest Abe…

“With Malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation’s wounds.” ~ Abraham Lincoln

Happy Election Day Good Friends!
