    no mo macacca

    Jefferson and Madison are gasping an Amen of relief. As a native Virginian and one whose British Isle ancestors first came to Virginia in the 1600s, I hope this fake Virginian will take his boots, snuff, noose and insufferable attitude back to some California dude ranch where he might complete his metamorphosis into a cowboy. Or maybe he can help out on the non-ranch ranch in Crawford.
