It matters. The truth always matters. Something is or it isn't,

and dissemblers and liars shouldn't be given a pass on manipulating a COUNTRY! The vast majority of Americans now think Thomas Jefferson indeed fathered kids with Sally Hemmings, and there is not yet conclusive proof of that. For those who would make political hay out of such a "fact," that national delusion is very useful. It matters.

Bump to that!

Thanks. I just re-read what you excerpted, and realize that I was really riding a high horse there, wasn't I? But I also realize, such a ride is easier when you're right.
