Some of the most innovative half-hour television comedy shows in recent years has been comedian Louis C.K.’s show on FX, Louie. Last night, Louis C.K. hosted Saturday Night Live, and one of the best segments was a mash up of Louie with the sixteenth president of the United States. As we go to the polls this week, the “Lincoln” segment is a good reminder to keep our good humor. Check out what a comedy starring Abraham Lincoln just might look like in 2012 if Lincoln were anything like Louie.

2024 Update: Currently the video is not available, but here is another SNL segment about Lincoln.
