John Kerry:

No wonder Thomas Jefferson himself said: “Dissent is the greatest form of patriotism."

The Jefferson Library:

There are a number of quotes that we do not find in Thomas Jefferson’s correspondence or other writings; in such cases, Jefferson should not be cited as the source. Among the most common of these spurious Jefferson quotes [is]:

* "Dissent is the highest form of patriotism."

(Via Paul Zrimsek)

if questioned kerry would most likely ask you to define the word 'it' thereby pulling a jedi mind trick and appeasing his base.

Kerry's knowledge of history (and leading men in time of war) is pretty dismal.

Anytime someone quotes Jefferson, they are under suspicion. Mr. Jefferson was not playing with a full deck, as far as I'm concerned...
