It is a magnificent post.
Our forefathers got Jefferson.
We get the Obamaloon.
Curses!!
Good post. It really highlights the struggles we face in America today.
That is a wonderful post. The men who built this country were truly patriotic Americans.
The quotes are bone-chilling and goosebump raising.
How could we allow our leaders to ignore such profound and prophetic wisdom?
Excellent post, btw.
Thanks for posting.
In 1820 Jefferson completed “The Jefferson Bible”. aka. “The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth”.
Nice post, btw.
thank you, for posting a reminder of the “gold standard” for public servants.
(shocking to compare to the greedy arrogant ones running our country now.)
...my only addition, would be about Jefferson’s careful research and conclusions about Islam, and his position on National Defense:
“millions for defense but not one cent for tribute,”
http://www.military-quotes.com/forum/what-thomas-jefferson-learned-muslim-t32803.html
“ ... in order to retrieve seized American ships and buy the freedom of enslaved sailors.
Adams argued in favor of paying tribute as the cheapest way to get American commerce in the Mediterranean moving again. Jefferson was opposed. He believed there would be no end to the demands for tribute and wanted matters settled “through the medium of war.” He proposed a league of trading nations to force an end to Muslim piracy.”
Great post! Please don’t let it be your last. We need the reminders of our founding.
This is a great post! Tom forecast 2011 pretty well.

At 55, drafted the Kentucky Resolutions and became the active head of Republican Party.

Great post. Thanks for sharing. (Don’t resign yourself to it being your last post....)
Why make such a great post and then declare it your likely last one? Inquiring minds want to know.
Why would this be your last post? It’s a wonderful post and done perfectly (as far as I can see) and is worthy of keeping and being passed around in email to those who don’t read FreeRepublic.
Thanks for posting.
You did great. Wonderful post. Thank you.
