ADMIN: Political Discussions

[Guest guest]

Hi Everybody,

 

In the spirit of this 4th of July - Independence Day weekend (as today

is the national holiday observed since the actual day fell on Sunday) I

will let the ongoing political discussions on the list continue - for

today only

 

Tomorrow I want this list back on topic!

 

*Smile*

Chris (list mom - benevolent dictator

OK Chris - the benevolent dictator - I'll sneak in quickly if I may!

 

I wasn't going to say anything but am spurred on by Vicki, JenB and Kathleen

(hope I didn't miss anyone out!) and just wanted to correct a couple of things

and stand up for my country!

- Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before

they died.

 

I would just like to point you to the following website

http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/p/patriots.htm

You will see that this site quotes the message that Butch sent (at the bottom of

the page) but does state at the beginning of the page that much of the message

including the killing and torturing of the patriots by the British is in fact

fiction. OK - I wasn't there! but I understand that this is a reliable site.

There is a lot that our countries have done in the past that we can rightly be

ashamed of. But I will defend my country when I think there are stories being

passed around that inflame feeling against us.

 

I hope all of you across that BIG pond (and those of you there in your thoughts)

had a wonderful weekend.
