Progress rather than perfection.....

The Declaration stated "all men are created equal" in 1776. It wasn't until 1863 that Slaves were released from Bondage. It wasn't until 1920 when women could vote. It wasn't until 1965 when Blacks and whites could attend school together. It wasn't until 1967 that blacks and whites could marry everywhere. It wasn't until 2015 when gay people could marry whomever they chose everywhere in the US. Someday in a few more decades we actually might come to believe that ol' Thomas Jefferson was on to something.

Why MAGA's aren't Patriots.....

You can't pretend to love the country if you hate the people in it. You can't claim to love the country if you hate the Freedom that allows people to criticize it. If you're trying to find the traitors, perhaps you should look inward
