How do you type with your foot in your mouth? Perhaps, uh, you meant to go on some unrelated rant about "TOM Paine?"
LOL.
By the way. While you're on your hobby horse, read a little more Thomas Paine while you're at it beyond what you heard in grade school about Common Sense.
"Age of Reason" on the rejection of the Bible and organized religion.
Did you know he was the first to propose a 100% death tax to be distributed to young people as a way to eliminate poverty?
Yeah, I don't think you know the difference between a Sam and a Tom, and it doesn't appear you know Tom from a hole in the ground.
Sincerely, SAM
(Not Adams, not the girl on Bewitched, etc.)
If I’m not mistaken, Samuel Paine was in business with George Jefferson and Calvin Lincoln. They traded and repaired carriage parts and saddles when not busy drafting articles and penning essays.
