oops, sorry for all the posts...internet stuck or something.
and thanks for the picture!
My favorite visit was 9 AM Christmas morning, 2001. They had it set up as the Christmas in 1783 when the General returned. It was just my family and a similar-minded family from Georgia that day.
Outstanding.
Ugh! Like Sarah Palin, my favorite Founding Father. But he’s apparently going to be portrayed as Bubba the First.
Check out Glenn Beck’s take on this (no secret he’s a HUGE G. Washington fan). He eviscerated NBC over this. I mean....it was ugly, and absolutely spot-on. Good on ‘im.
Oh goodness, I can only imagine what claptrap we will see from NBC. Probably something about the British valuing profit over the common good or something like that.
If the man who, from the beginning in 1765 risked his property and his neck, commanded the Continental Armies, gave us the Constitution, served two Presidential terms without pay . . . can be so easily vilified and destroyed in popular culture, it means there is little chance to restore our once republic.
Bttt
I highly recommend this biography to anyone interested in American history... which I am sure NBC is not the least bit interested in.
For Freepers, if you haven't read it, please do!
We would not exist without Washington. That is how important he was. That book will tell you why he was Indispensable.
They will say he was a gay, muslim.
