Kind of old, but this was the first time I've seen it. Enjoy.

My teeth are a bit gummy; would you mind cutting this up into little paragraphs for me, great -- thank you very much.

Monticello was certainly not "locked" when TJ was not there.

Of his slaves only the children of Sally Hemings were freed when TJ died. That is a fairly interesting fact.

Good article. I took the tour at Monticello about 3 months ago and was stunned by the certainty with which they said that Thomas Jefferson was the father of Sally's children, as if there was no doubt at all. They need a copy of this article.

Revisionist revisionism? Revising the PC garbage back to truth? If the purpose of the Culture Destroyers is to simply create doubt, I suspect they've accomplished that.

The article reported Foster's discovery that descendants of Eston Hemings, the last of Jefferson slave Sally Hemings's children, shared a distinctive genetic marker with descendants of Thomas Jefferson's paternal uncle. In its sensationalized reporting of this discovery, the media almost universally proclaimed that DNA testing had conclusively proven beyond a reasonable doubt the almost two-hundred-year-old allegation that Thomas Jefferson had a sexual relationship with one of his house slaves and fathered from one to seven children with her.

Funny, I thought the O.J. Simpleton trial had proven that even day-old DNA was not admissable. Now, 200 year old DNA is reliable. These people do George Orwell proud!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, BUT IT'S TOO LATE!!! The masses of asses out there are CONVINCED that Thomas Jeferson fathered Hemming's child. I hear it in college, I read it in smart-assed liberal publications, and I've seen it on TV comedies, of all places. The liberals have changed history to suit their agenda yet again, and as usual, the people are worse off for it (although they are too stupid to realize it!)
