[edit] Story

Abraham Lincoln, sometimes also known simply as Honest Abe, was the sixteenth President of the United States of America (1861–1865). The bulk of Lincoln's presidency occurred during the American Civil War in which the country became divided on the issue of slavery. As the war came to an end Lincoln invited Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant to a social gathering at Ford's Theater. Although Grant declined the offer Lincoln was still in attendance at Ford's Theater. Shortly into the play, "Our American Cousin", actor John Wilkes Booth snuck up behind Lincoln and shot him in the back of the head. The bullet wound placed Lincoln into a coma, he would officially be announced dead early the next morning.

In the Family Guy episode Mind Over Murder a television commercial depicts the assassination of Abraham Lincoln while pitching the fictional product "Mintos", a play upon the actual product "Mentos". After the commercial plays the Griffins sitting on the couch, with the exception of Peter, proclaim the commercial to be completely ineffective. Peter on the other hand stands up and walks out of the living room saying, "Must kill Lincoln."

He also appears in Holy Crap, where there is a reference to the bible, when God ordered Abraham to kill Isaac. Lincoln is depicted at a cafe killing Isaac Washington.

Lincoln is one of the four presidents featured on Mount Rushmore, alongside George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Theodore Roosevelt. The monument made appearances in "Dammit Janet" and "North by North Quahog".He also appears in a cutaway in episode The Man With Two Brians.
