I made this to help me cope with the loss. It was difficult to cut it down because I wanted to include all of her scenes from Empire. "So long Princess."
My family tree has a branch of Pennsylvania Quakers from Wales.
The final question now is quite controversial.
What if Hellboy was Born in George Washington and Abraham Lincoln to War before Starting Civil War.
Daniel Day-Lewis played Lincoln better than Lincoln "I never thought I'd live to see the day when a sitting POTUS would call up 25,000 volunteers with the purpose of invading his own country 🇺🇸" ~ Robert E. Lee
Hardly 1080
In my history class in college, our teacher told us that when George Washington died, the flag was lowered to half-mast in front of the Parliament building in London.
Stanton's outburst is fabulous and Lincoln's subtle dismissal of his outburst is the stuff of comedic genius. I'd like to think something like this may have actually took place because historic Lincoln certainly had a sense of humor about things.

Congrats brian you even got the chain to the top well done
I love how Lincoln just keeps going with his story as Stanton storms out.
I guess that's why they needed to put George on the $1 bill. 😁
Made even funnier by the fact that the actor is an Englishman himself
Lincoln: casually explaining history Winfield Scott: no, no, no, wait, wait, wait!

Did Ethan Allan actually say that?
Quaker women are so sensual: more than an inner light they have a volcano inside.
I love this, because while the Ethan Allen story is apocryphal, Lincoln's telling of the story is not. It was one of his favorite stories to disarm an audience.
He’s a wonderful storyteller by telling stories when he’s not busy and just having a break. He just wanted the country peacefully reunited and end the war, not just to ban slavery. He also loves to tell jokes and make people laugh. Even when he got shot, he loved watching plays, as I do. I too love to laugh. (Mary Poppins reference, eh?!)
There is no Daniel Day Lewis in this scene. There is only Old Abe
"Daniel Simpson Day has no grade point average. All courses incomplete."---Bruce McGill as Edwin Stanton in "Lincoln", and as D-Day in "Animal House".
I love my country lol
Congratulations on Weakest Link Brian!
My favorite part of this scene is always the part that gets cut, right after the story is finished and the telegraph begins transmitting. Everyone gathers around and Secretary of War Stanton returns, moving right up to the front with Lincoln to hear the news. In that moment, Lincoln offers his hand and Stanton clasps it, both of them hoping and praying the news is as they wish, that things have gone well. Stanton never truly liked Lincoln at the best of times, finding him irritatingly aloof, as is demonstrated several times in this film, but at the same time, he respected his President fiercely and was loyal to the utmost end. Stanton was with Lincoln as he lay dying, and when the President was pronounced dead, Stanton's voice trembled as he proclaimed "Now he is one with the angels." Edwin Stanton and Abraham Lincoln were not friends in any sense, and yet there was a deep respect and profound loyalty to one another that almost transcends the bonds of friendship. God bless both of them.
Undoubtedly if Lincoln were to have seen the movie, he would have been embarrassed at the hagiographic treatment of himself, but he would have absolutely loved this scene. I could totally see Lincoln saying, in response to his opinion on the movie, winking and laughing "I really liked the scene where I said "shit".
Only an American can truly understand and love that joke.
Thank You Quakers for all you have done in the abolitionist Movement!
George Gray asking a question about the Price is Right!
Little did he know that later on, he would be telling future contestants to “Come on down!” on The Price is Right. LOL
Ah, folksy Lincoln telling the story about a man who rebelled against his government, attacked said government's soldiers while they occupied a fort built and owned by the same government, all in an attempt to form a new country with its own government separate from the one which had claimed authority over him up to that point. It's a great story, told with good humor, and is even more humorous considering Lincoln was levying a brutal war against "rebels" who were essentially fighting for the same type of separation that Ethan Allen had fought to achieve from the British Empire scarcely 90 years previously.
No.. you only get one revolution. The other ones after that whether it be 1861 or 2020 are called insurrections.
No...they fought to keep their slaves. End of story.
@@HispanicMan Really? If that is true than they must have ignored everything Lincoln and the Republican party had to say about slavery up to 1862. Lincoln made it very clear before the election of 1860, after the election, and clear up until late 1862 that he had no intention of interfering with slavery in the states where it already existed. He even supported an amendment to the Constitution that would have protected slavery from any kind of interference from the federal government as a carrot to induce the seceded states to reverse course and rejoin the USA voluntarily. If the only concern of the Confederates was to secure slavery from any kind of federal interference, all they had to do was rejoin the union and help ratify the Corwin Amendment, which was widely supported throughout most of the free states even during the first 18 months of the war.
@@flatcat6676you're a man who knows only enough history to be dangerous. This is a very common sentiment echoed by undergrads across the country as they've not studied enough to understand the difference between politicking and governing. Tell me, if Lincoln truly meant that he would preserve the union without freeing a slave then why didn't he? He had several opportunities. Even up until the 13th Amendment a southern envoy said they'd rejoin had he not passed it and he refused. It's because he knew, as Benjamin Franklin knew, that one must politick in order to govern. Surely you don't take every politicians word at face value do you? Do you genuinely believe that Obama or Bush or anyone with an IQ over 110 thinks gay marriage is wrong? They all said it though, surely they must mean it 😂
such a great joke
I love that kid.
I love that story too. Born and raised in Western Canada but I memorized the Gettysburg address. A lifelong fan of AL.
Teammates: 1. Jill 2. Gregory 3. Madison 4. Carolyn 5. Brian 6. Celina
The shot of Washingtons portrait at the end of the end of the story is like "really? Sigh"
The irony does not escape me. An Englishman playing an American talking trash about Englishmen.
God is Love!!
Carolyn got 6th place Jill got 5th place Madison got 4th Gregory got 3rd Celina got 2nd Brian got 1st
Lincoln, by all accounts, was a warm, affable person who loved anecdotes and jokes. Despite his lifelong battle with depression, Lincoln was generally a jovial person who loved to converse, and could make a connection with seemingly anyone. It’s no wonder he was a master campaigner, an excellent debater, and an extremely savvy politician. But, no doubt, one you would absolutely love to sit down with and have a Coke with today (he also didn’t drink alcohol).
Esto si me da algo de cosa Pero de ese momento ese tipo ya no le daba para el free fire le estoy diciendo de broma en realidad el pobrecito si se murió

we need some Lincoln humor like this to ignore Joe Biden and his so called fuuny humor.
Aww he’s so cute
I love how angry Stantin gets when he storms out. Regardless, that was his man to the end.
❤ 😂
Touche !
Some of Hollywood’s best dialogue. Would that today’s writers were half as good.
For a minute I thought you were talking about the total silence and I thought…honestly you’re right 😂
The fact that he’s British makes it every funnier…an absolute legend.
I don't think the USA has ever had the Charisma of Abraham Lincoln. Oh, how I wish we had such a president right now...
Different types for sure. FDR definitely had a crooning radio charisma. Obama a pastoral charisma. Eisenhower, a soft spoken humble charisma. Clinton has a type of charisma as well, more of an impeccable memory of people though.
This is my new ring tone & “ i love it !” 🤠
