That is just beautiful. And moreso since they meant every word. Our 'representatives' today don't have the character to even come close [to that of the Founders who signed the Declaration of Independence].
What a magnificent source of great pride and inspiration; But also a source of heartbreak and shame given out current unprincipled crop of "Statesmen."
