Poor Thomas Jefferson

I've always wondered how Democrats can lionize one person then demonize another and get away with it. Even though he murdered a helpless young girl Ted Kennedy became the Lion of the Senate. Amazing!

Anyway, the Democrats have for years celebrated their Jefferson-Jackson Day events as a get together to promote their party and candidates. It's a tradition. Jefferson was a Democratic-Republican. Andrew Jackson was a hard core hard drinking Tennessean. Want to hear a neat story about his followers? After Jackson was inaugurated there was a party thrown in the White House and a number of the boys from Tennessee were in attendance. The liquor flowed. In those days big monstrous blocks of cheese were brought in. The inebriated thought it's be a neat idea to grab this cheese and make a skating rink on the floor. I guess did dumb things in the early 1800's after imbibing.

Back to the point. Thomas Jefferson had slaves. It's a known fact he had children with Sally Hemmings, one of his slaves. Jefferson was from Virginia, a slave state. Slavery was the law of the land in Jefferson's day just as Roe v. Wade is the law of the land today. But for Democrats today and Mayor Pete whatever his last name is the slave issue is enough to get rid of Jefferson-Jackson Day and go to Jackson Day.

Democrats must live in a bizzaro world. In the 1800's and prior American Indians, the Indigenous ones, populated all the our land, east to west coast. Upon taking office Jackson wanted to get rid of the Indians, push them westward. Have Democrats never heard of the Trail of Tears where the entire Cherokee nation was mass marched to the Oklahoma Territory? Are Democrats lacking in knowledge about the thousands who died along the way?

Mayor Pete needs a history lesson. Democrats, those who can read, need a history lesson. I'll cut Pete some slack. He's only been out of high school for 19 years. Teachers the 1990's don't teach American History anymore.
