[size=large]First of all, I apologise for offending anyone as to my tone.

It is unfortunate that we live in an age of history revisionism. I guess I'm more than a little hypersensitive to things like that given the current political state of the country.

Mags, I'm am sure that you just posted what you thought to be an interesting article. YOU didn't write the article.

Was this history revisionism/PC? Probably not. I overreacted I'm sure.

Did Washington own slaves? Yep.

Was it a "slave plantation?' Give me a break!

I guess that my point is that unless phrases like that are germane to to a subject, why insert them?

Anyway, I'm sorry I let my alligator mouth overload my hummingbird arse and can I still play with you guys?[/size]

[size=large]I suppose you have to consider the source..........a "scholarly" work from a university in the Philippines. Liberal is liberal the world. BTW, you're a vet, did you go through the PI on your way to Nam?[/size]
