Thomas Paine went a lot further in attacking Washington as his (Paine’s) alcoholism intensified.

Some guy (wink) even included Paine in his alcoholism book. See page 85 for the Paine-Washington stuff.

Indeed...Paine became a great hater, with Washington just added to the list which included all God-fearing Christians and Jews.

Thanks for the post and the link...
