The The Babysitter porn movieGOP is putting words in Abraham Lincoln's mouth.
On the revered president's 208th birthday, the GOP shared a photo of the Lincoln Memorial with a quote that -- though attributed to Lincoln -- is one he never actually said.
SEE ALSO: How the 'Lincoln Invented Facebook' Hoax Fooled Some of the PeopleThe tweet was sent out Sunday morning from the main GOP Twitter account, with the quote, "And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years," attributed to our 16th president.

A quick Google search shows that most people on the internet think this is a Lincoln quote, too, with plenty of little homemade memes to share. But the sleuths over at Voxdug up a blog post from the Quote Investigatorsite that claims that the quote didn't come from Lincoln but, rather, Edward Stieglitz’s book The Second Forty Years.
The QIsite also follows the evolution of the quote's use through ads in the 1940s and 1950s -- never once attributed to Lincoln -- and its usage by Illinois governor Adlai Stevenson, who was at one point credited with the quote.
When the "party of Lincoln" gets its Lincoln tribute quote wrong, the internet will let you know.

The party has not yet responded to a request for comment about the misattributed Lincoln quote.
The GOP was hardly alone in messy tweets on Sunday, though. The Department of Education misspelled the name of W.E.B. Du Bois in a tweet and then made another spelling error when apologizing for it.
