By this, I guess we have to wait 150 years for all those Obamacare and gun control op-eds to be restracted in the NYT and Boston Globe...

"One-hundred and fifty years after Abraham Lincoln passionately appealed for the preservation of the union in the Gettysburg Address, the Patriot-News of central Pennsylvania, known back then as the Patriot & Union, is retreating from its stance in 1863 that Abe’s Civil War speech was “silly.”'

Of course, he set into motion precedent that would ultimately lead to the near death of the Republic, but that debate is for another day...
