Obama As Honest Abe

Robin Eley/Wall Street Journal

Comparisons of Barak Obama to Abraham Lincoln have been on the rise as of late. A recent Wall Street Journal article sized up this rather predictable trend, initially fostered by Obama himself. This is all well and good, but my current fascination lies with the (artistically rendered) bearded image of the President-Elect. One particularly swell variation is found above. Unfortunately, I do not foresee a resurgence in the Presidential Beard anytime soon.
