Today's Founders Quote: Correcting Abuses


"My confidence is that there will for a long time be virtue and good sense enough in our countrymen to correct abuses."

- Thomas Jefferson, 1788.


   Hmm..... Virtue and Good Sense - two simple qualities that we all think we have, but seem hopelessly lost in Washington.  That is the challenge: to find people who have these qualities.  The problem is, it takes $1.5-2 million dollars per cycle to win just a Congressional seat in Florence-Myrtle Beach.  That money makes it impossible to run and not whore yourself out to whoever got you there.


    However, we might lose our good sense around cutiepie Jessie Rogers.. Grrrr!!!
