Time to bulldoze the Jefferson Memorial?

[Carl Remick]

Re Paul's:  "This whole discussion of Jefferson seems to me to smack of
presentism.
We can't judge Jefferson's thoughts and actions by present day
standards, we have to judge him within the context of his day."

I will not yield one centimeter on my assertion that Jefferson was an
utter fraud and a scoundrel and deserves no place whatsoever in any
leftist pantheon.  But Paul raises an interesting question.  Does anyone
know how many of the signers of the Declaration of Independence owned
slaves?  What were the views of, say, John Adams on the morality of
slavery?
