There are some women there. One of them a woman judge from Wyoming (which would be blue in a fair universe).
But the patriots: "We mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor." Important men in their colonies, most (?) of them propertied and rich and influential, willing to die, and some did, loving their country. Disgust and bile in my throat at the people, men and women, in today's Congress who daily violate their oath - none of them are worthy to polish the statutes of those who knew what honor and oaths meant. The scene in "Deathly Hallows II" when the statues came to live and mowed down those who followed a vile, evil man. Pity the Founders' statues can't do that today!
:-) My first chihuahua, a much loved holy terror (he actually bit the hand that fed him), who died unexpectedly at the untimely age of 11.5 from congestive heart failure 11 years ago. His successor, now 12, is his half nephew 11 years removed, and looks nothing like him, and doesn't bite the hand that feeds him (he will bite yours however if you turn your back on him). Me, he might lick me to death! ☺
What would these patriots think of our country today?
Sure miss seeing the women!
