re: #30 SanFranciscoZionist

It’s rather funny. The TofT is interesting, and provides some insight into the mindset of the Founders as they wrestled with the piracy issue, but it’s not a particularly important document.

Unfortunately, it contains two explosive items—one, a clear statement that the United States is not founded on Christianity, and two, a rather warm attitude toward “Mahometans”.

The entire narrative has been taken up by the wingnuts, who see it as a resounding lesson in the abiding evil of Islam learned by a naive U.S., which we oughta have remembered, obsessively, for all the intervening time, and…profit. I forget the middle part.

Us sane Tennesseans just can’t catch a break here lately from the wingnutalypse, can we?
