The General was not averse to personally wading into silly factional brawls between early-on participants (e.g., Virginians vs. New Englanders!) in what would become the Continental Army, and would no doubt make short work of this bunch of fakers.revereridesagainnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5200276.post-71621924113173762372011-10-30T06:58:17.630-04:002011-10-30T06:58:17.630-04:00Anonymous: If you clicked on one of the underlined...Anonymous: If you clicked on one of the underlined links, one of them would take you straight to the Declaration and you'd see the 99% symbol with the silhouette of Washington.
