    speaking of mistruths....

    http://www.monticello.org/site/jefferson/spurious-quotations <--- Spurious Quotations: A collection of quotations commonly misattributed to Thomas Jefferson.

    How many from Cal's list can YOU find on here boys and girls???

    I found 4, and I wasn't even looking super hard, lol.

    http://www.monticello.org/site/jefferson/democracy-will-cease-to-exist-quotation

    http://www.monticello.org/site/jefferson/beauty-second-amendment-quotation

    http://www.monticello.org/site/jefferson/strongest-reason-people-to-retain-right-to-keep-and-bear-arms-quotation

    http://www.monticello.org/site/jefferson/government-big-enough-to-give-you-everything-you-wantquotation

    If anyone else can add to this list, go for it

          Dang. I wish woodypeckerhead would be as critical of all of Obamao's lies.

          But alas, he's a political bigot who rejects science if it doesn't suit his stupidity.

          I still like it. I think Jefferson thought it, just didn't write it down.

            You can "think" whatever you like, that doesn't make it true. For example, a good number of these quotes.

            I'm critical of YOUR lies, or the ones others made up and you pass on as truth.

            Nice attempt at trying to back out of this though. Mention Obamao. Insult me. Say you think it's true. Lol. Its not Santa. Believing in these quotes doesn't make them true lol.

              for the record, Woodrow, why should thomas Jefferson mean shit to you in the first place?

                Such anger from Woody recently. Anger will kill you, should chill out.

                  1. I'm not backing out of anything. It's the content of the quotes. The meaning behind the words.

                  They are attributed to Jefferson. If that's wrong, my email was quoting the wrong people.

                  But woodypeckerhead, there is a huge

                  difference between being wrong, and telling a lie. You are just an asshole, the butt of the board,

                  woodypeckerhead. you don't know the difference, well, then you should get some counseling

                  about living in the real world.

                  2. woody hates. It's what libs do. Anything that someone thinks is good, they think it's bad,

                  with no explanation. Anything that someone else things is bad, is good, with no explanation.

                  It's a sad, sick way to exist. He must be very, very lonely. it's like mentally, he is allegedly graduated

                  from high school, but still lives in an opaque bubble. Doesn't know what life is, or means.

                  3. Let's just surmise that woodpecker is just like a mosquito that won't go away, who is only here to suck

                  the blood out of every thread that isn't about a subject he approves of.

                  4. Whoever really did say these quotes, I think they have a ton of merit. I like them.

                      I saw a really splendid red headed woodpecker in the wild the other day. It must have been the size of a peragrine falcon if not bigger.

                        LMAO. So when you are found to be untrue, about the source, it's still OK because YOU like them? Typical Cal

                        Not to stick up for woody, because he's out there on many things, and I certainly don't agree with all of his stuff, but he did disprove the source of most of your original post.

                        And furthermore, I agree with MANY of those quotes.

                          It doesn't mean that much. I don't think the founding fathers are untouchable like some here (or at least the parts of the founding fathers they like).

                          Either way, I'm calling out Cal for posting fake quotes and attributing them to Jefferson. His response to that, of course, has been classic Cal

                            But yes, this is typical Cal. He hasn't really even admitted some of them our fake yet either, lol. All that matters is that they sound good.

                                3. Let's just surmise that woodpecker is just like a mosquito that won't go away, who is only here to suck

                                the blood out of every thread that isn't about a subject he approves of.

                                4. Whoever really did say these quotes, I think they have a ton of merit. I like them.

                                1. They are attributed to Jefferson by people that have no idea what they are talking about, lol. They are doing this so people like you get a little Tea Party boner when you read it in a chain email. But you don't blame yourself for this incorrect info, you blame your email. You did post it here assuming it was fact. Alright. And you weren't lying, you were just being ignorant, ok. "I didn't meant to tell a lie, I'm just stupid".

                                2. Nope, but that's your common response. "Liberals bad". Right.

                                3. ...

                                4. Alright. You are allowed to like them. Just don't act like Jefferson said them.

                                  Actually that is reality. I was interviewed Steven Wright and he talked about all the internet posts with jokes attributed to him and how it pissed him off. Not because somebody was using his name but because the jokes sucked. He said he really wouldn't mind if they were great.

                                  And all of our heroes from the founding fathers to the great generals to the spiritual leaders come from the pens of probably well meaning people.

                                  Was George Washington a hero? Was James T Kirk? Sure.

                                      well, I didn't know they are fake.

                                      I still like the quotes though.

                                      You are still the butt of the board, little woodpecker asshole.

                                      That doesn't change for you. You're a stupid woodpecker.

                                        So basically you don't give a shit that they are fake so long as it agrees with your sensibilities? Now I know why so many people can be religious.

                                          I go by the content of the words. It's a nice thing that Jefforson might have said them.

                                          But apparently he didn't. Who do you think I only agree with the words or not, depending

                                          on the political party, or fame, of the person who said them?

                                          Logic, really. You need to start looking at content, instead of gaging a popularity context

                                          on quotes.

                                          Armie Swartzenhauffenmakenich could have said a great thing about OUR 2nd Amendment,

                                          and I'd agree with it bigtime.

                                          I don't worship cultwise like a lot of libs do. Reality doesn't flip flop just because you

                                          know a person or not.
