If only we all thought like this.

I am always irritated when those on the Right claim Paine as one of their own.

In truth he could not be further removed from the ideology embraced by the modern Republican party.

In fact if they were to be MORE like Thomas Paine this country would be functioning a hell of a lot better.

    went to university with a direct descendent of Thomas Paine, who researched Thomas extensively and in a scholarly manner. The TeaTHUGS would have lynched Paine grandpere.

    I have long believed that God doesn't give a rat's ass for our land boundaries or our politics. The teachings of Christ have nothing to do with either of those things.
