Are you suggesting, TRT, that the ideas, concepts, writings of Thomas Jefferson were not prevalent? Again, literal mindedness, especially when being a Forum Boy, is no strength. Look at the preamble in terms of the Declaration of Independence. You think so far in the box that you miss the forest for the trees. You seek to characterize Jefferson's physical absence (He was in Paris) as if his intellectual tour de force was not paramount.

Oh no, I'm not suggesting that. I'm saying straight up that despite your come on, you never know what in the heck you're talking about. And I'm saying now that you have been so inescapably 'outed,' that you will try to duck dodge dive lie slime or distort your way out of it, in a vain effort to rehabilitate something that never existed outside of that shrunken cabeza of yours in the first place. :Thumbs:
