I read an interesting article in this mornings paper where a rare copy of
the Emancipation Proclamation, signed by President Lincoln, arrived in the
Oval Office for Martin Luther King Jr. Day in January and has been hanging
out just above a bronze bust of King ever since, will now be moving on to an
unknown destination for viewing.
For those of you who don't know any thing about the Emancipation
Proclamation well I can help you out as history is a hobby of mine. The
Emancipation Proclamation was a proclamation. There were these folks who
wanted to be emancipated so they wrote a proclamation and they called it the
Emancipation Proclamation. And I am surprised some of you didn't know that.
