Abraham Lincoln was the head of a radical party which was dedicated to overthrowing the status quo. What radicals do Republicans currently support?.... Or is it true that conservatives are worshipers of dead radicals.

I have also noticed that Dwight Eisenhower has virtually disappeared from the Republican pantheon. I suppose that his warning to beware the military-industrial complex is too damning to their current policies, likewise his warning to avoid a land war in Asia is too close to the muddled adventure in Iraq for them to mention.
