Apropos: A Quote in Light of Recent Events

"A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to its true principles. It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public debt......If the game runs sometimes against us at home we must have patience till luck turns, and then we shall have an opportunity of winning back the principles we have lost, for this is a game where principles are at stake." -- Thomas Jefferson

Let us hope Jefferson's quote proves true.

For the record, I have no idea what Kane just said...

Ol' TJ was a smart guy. I hope his wisdom applies here. I can't take another Republican President. Seriously. Can't take it.
