re: #65 palomino

Read Jefferson’s Notes on Virginia. Hard to believe a brilliant man like Jefferson wrote essays in which he denigrated blacks as less physically attractive, less intelligent and more prone to perspiration and body odor (gee, what slave activities might have caused that?)

Founding fathers were great men, but still flawed. The TP mythologizing is a dead end.

it is, I agree…the only person I’d elevate to halo status, beyond typical human accomplishment and greatness, is Keith Richards…perfection personified
