We Must Have Patience ...Barbra Streisand Posted on November 8, 2004 In response to the results of the Presidential election last week, I would like to share with you a quote from Thomas Jefferson. Although written in 1798, I feel his words speak perfectly to the strong sentiments of frustration and disappointment 48% of the country feel.
"A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to its true principles. It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public debt......If the game runs sometimes against us at home we must have patience till luck turns, and then we shall have an opportunity of winning back the principles we have lost, for this is a game where principles are at stake."
Hmmm. Her posts aren't usually so autobiographical, are they?
What would Jefferson have said for the disappointed 57% of the nation in 1992, babs?
...and believe me Barbara know ALOT about witches!!!
Barbara is foreseeing her own demise?
"the reign of witches"
Has babs been drinking or is she on drugs...
I can't believe I ever wanted these people to shut-up. The more they talk, the more we win!
Really? Thanks Babs, I had no idea you and Hillary were leaving the country with Teresa.
The only witches to be seen are when Babs, Hillary and Rosie O'Donnel look in their mirrors.
A quote from 1798. I guess Babs' dabbling in history again!
All Babs really knows about Jefferson is that Clinton has his as a middle name. If she even bothered to read some of Jefferson's work, what's left of her head would surely explode.
Greetings to Babs from "Jesusland"!
Yes!
seems to be something running through the Dem party right now, Edward's wife apparently used the same quote on DU.
If Babs had her way, we'd be living under the reign of elves and fairies.
Hmmm. Her posts aren't usually so autobiographical, are they?
I guess hillary's on her way out...
We must stop Mecha-Streisand! Where's Sidney Poitier?
