* Few Americans remember that Lincoln’s first Executive Order was to rename the Washington Monument the Lincoln-Washington Monument.

SNIP
“That claim is false; President Abraham Lincoln never issued an executive order to rename the Washington Monument the "Lincoln-Washington Monument". The Washington Monument honors George Washington, the first U.S. President, and the Lincoln Memorial honors Abraham Lincoln, but they are distinct structures, and Lincoln did not rename Washington's memorial, as the Lincoln Memorial was built much later.”

I can't believe you fell for that. :) Thanks. Made my day. Have a great year LM.
