"I visited Monticello while in Virginia recently....I inspected the hilltop plantation during the ongoing Grand Theft of the Grand Old Republic . During the tour I wondered what Mr. Jefferson might have said to the two pretenders posing as presidential candidates, about the cash & carry giveaway to the Wall Street magicians. Somehow the scathing words of Jefferson seemed particularly apropos now." Column by Douglas Herman.
