Absent-Minded Abe?


I was watching a documentary about Abraham Lincoln recently, a documentary which quoted heavily from the Emancipation Proclamation.

Part of that document reads as follows:

"Now, therefore I, Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, by virtue of the power in me vested as Commander-in-Chief, of the Army and Navy of the United States in time of actual armed rebellion against the authority and government of the United States..."

Hm. Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy.

 What's the matter, Abe? Did you forget about the Air Force?  :)

 Thanks for your time.

  1. Maybe Abe just wasn't able to use the force? He only had the air part down?

  2. Whoa, so it really is true that the Yankees were ferrying troops back and forth in spaceships and Sherman was actually from Centari Prime?

  3. He was distracted by all the vampires he was hunting.
