Small typo, Congresman: Should be 1828. But great article nonetheless.

A little down today, are we?

Time to rejuvenate yourself. Take some time off. Eat a little barbecue, drink a little beer. Or, perhaps, a little something special (I'm certain there's some quality white lightnin' available within a few miles of your digs).

And, whatever you do, pay no attention to the MSM. They'd demoralize any sane man...

Yep, 1828.

Otherwise, thank you for reminding us of history. I am taking American history right now and am overall appalled as to how much has been forgotten and deliberately not taught in the schools. This if nothing else is tremendously frightening.

There was a poem associated with that event, too. Remember it begins with the words, “Oh, say can you see, by the dawn’s early light....” Perhaps you might listen to it when you next attend a ball game.

The entire poem recited, not just the first verse. -Interesting.

Excellent article! Our one remaining area of progress seems to be technological advances, including medical advances, but the God Emperor is working hard to end that too.

One small disagreement, I think that the Jeffersonian Republicans lasted through his two successors, Madison and Monroe, when the Federalists finally disappeared completely, at which point the Jeffersonians fractured into the Democrats and the National Republicans (later the Whigs).

Oh great, it's late a night and I now have that stupid disco song repeating in my head...

A small sacrifice for the Republic I suppose. At least I think it's still a federally structured Republic.
