On second thought, this kind of revenge could backfire. There are already too many uppity women in the world! OOOOOHHH! I'M GONNA GET IT FOR THAT! :D Juuuusst kidding, ladies! Tamara! Put down that Glock!

Hmm. The image was there when I previewed, but not when I posted. THe post doesn't make much sense without it.

The subject is REPUBLIC vs. DEMOCRACY I pointed out to her that our Founders had a low opinion of democracy, that's why they founded a republic. She wants to know more. Asked for a book recommend. I am aware of the Wall Builder stuff by David Barton, but I'd like to find something less...
