  • let me lay it on the line he had 2 on the vine. i mean 2 sets of testicles so devine

  • No, history shows us that he was a brilliant leader with human faults. He was not cold shouldered. Have you even read that when offered to make his HQ as well as his home at Valley Forge he instead stayed in the cold with his men until they had shelter? Washington strive to please everyone. He gave up so much of his lifetime for the country.
