Johnson;s quote which the libs love is a good starting point...Oh so you libs don’t mind that he owned slaves????Most dems and libs don’t have a clue about past history...They would literally freeze and change the subject..You are quoting a man who had slaves....

From what I’ve read about Johnson he wasn’t exactly a saint around his slaves..When he was getting ready to sign the constitution ,he was trying to unload a troublesome slave on another signer....

Oh, I see what is happening. The Samuel Johnson who wrote this essay was an Englishman who never actually came to America to my knowledge.
