The funny thing is that Lincoln really didn't care about the slaves until the second half of the civil war. He only signed the emancipation proclamation because he was losing support, and emancipation seemed like a good point to rally behind. It was never meant to be official
*broken history is broken, lolz* You know, sure is funny if ever look at real history and compare to the $h!t yo teachers &co try shoving down ya is not quite the same. In truth, if were true many a man more be counted among "History's Monsters" and perhaps a couple not? ("Honest Abes" plan was never to free no one but to ship 'em as came over back to wince they came to whatever their fate. Yeah, real supporter of 'equal rights' ;)
Where have I heard this before?!?! I just heard the melody somewhere and this song just came roaring back into my mind. I'm baffled. :O Has this been on some show or something?
GAY; late 14c., "full of joy, merry; light-hearted, carefree;" also "wanton, lewd, lascivious", from O.Fr. gai "joyful, happy; pleasant, agreeably charming; forward, pert". The word gay by the 1890s had an overall tinge of promiscuity; a gay house was a brothel. The suggestion of immorality in the word can be traced back at least to the 1630s, if not to Chaucer. Slang meaning "homosexual" begins to appear in psychological writing late 1940s.
The song erroneously states that Lincoln ended slavery. The emancipation proclamation was not a law for the U.S. The slaves in the U.S. were still slaves after it passed.
@GR8nPOWERFULOZ It was an executive order and it freed the slaves temporarily until the 13th and 14th admendments were established after the war. And Lincoln was given that name of Freeing the Slaves since he was the leader of the US at the time until when he was obviously shot.

Gay used to mean happy. Why do we now, all of a sudden, half to give it a wrong meaning?
