Monday we celebrate Presidents’ Day, and today happens to actually be the 16th President’s birthday.
Lincoln is generally considered to be one of the greatest men to ever become President of the United States, and for that reason quotes are often attributed to him that he never said or wrote.
In honor of Lincoln, and to have some fun, a new hashtag has been created on Twitter: #ThingsLincolnDidntSay. And some of these are just too funny. Take a look:
Jeez, Mary, I need to see a play like I need a hole in the head. #ThingsLincolnDidntSay
