You make the call, is the Diet Mountain Dew commercial featuring Abraham Lincoln as a stark raving mad wrestler great or is it disrespectful to our nation’s greatest President, the Great Emancipator who gave his life for his country?

I think Old Abe would get a kick out of this commercial, and not feel insulted by it at all. He actually *was* a wrestler, and at one point actually won the respect of one of his chief detractors by wrestling him to a draw. Abe eventually went on to defend this man’s wife in a court case.
