The Reign of Witches

"A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to its true principles. It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public debt......If the game runs sometimes against us at home we must have patience till luck turns, and then we shall have an opportunity of winning back the principles we have lost, for this is a game where principles are at stake." -Thomas Jefferson, 1798.

Special thanks to Babs for drawing my attention to this prescient nugget from our wizened third President. It almost makes me forgive the asshole for ruining our country with that damn Louisiana Purchase of his. Manifest Destiny be damned, America would still be blue if it weren't for those Heartland fucktards.

I myself have had "Don't Rain on my Parade" stuck in my head for the past four hours. It's beginning to grow on me. "Don't tell me not to live, just sit and putter...Life’s candy and the sun’s a ball of butter..." Damn you, Thomas Jefferson!
