As a sub-mediocre student of history, I find it remarkable...endlessly remarkable...that the Founders foresaw just about everything that could happen in their new nation; governed by their new Constitution; and wrote about and discussed and speculated about their concerns as to what would/might/could happen.

I am sure that if I were a far more diligent student than I am, my amazement would only grow. This is really one vile bunch of brazen sick scumbags we have running the place in DC.

Not many people know just how well traveled and erudite most of our Founders were. And as was custom at the time, almost all spoke several languages. In addition, and should be obvious given their creation, most were also students of human nature and the human condition.

This is really one vile bunch of brazen sick scumbags we have running the place in DC.

Agreed, and thanks in no small part to the human condition. Tyrants never sleep; We The People did. We are paying the price for our lack of vigilance, no?
