me: Thomas Jefferson is not a super hero.
You know why msbelle is a Good Mom(TM)? She's committed to making sure that mac KNOWS his US history.
Batman? Super hero.
Superman? But of course.
Captain Caveman? Iffy.
Black Canary? Super-duper hero.
Benjamin Franklin? You betcha he's a super hero.
Thomas Jefferson? Not so much.
And it's easier to say "Not a super hero" rather than "hypocritical bastard."
in mac's current world this is how things are - SUPER HEROES: top tier of the world, deserve most of his attention; TRANSFORMERS: almost equal with superheroes, but not yet as he does not have any of their toys; OTHER CARTOON FOLK: move up and down in importance depending what is on; CHARACTERS IN BOOKS OR ANYTHING FROM SCHOOL not covered in the previous categories: fleeting interest
then he gets a Thomas Jefferson trivia thing in a cracker jacks bag
he is interested and yet needs to fit this new person into the framework of his world.
How do you know that TJ wasn't a superhero? Superheroes wear disguises.
You should have said he was a transformer.
Tom, and his disguise was as a power-grubbing, executive-privilege expanding hypocrite? Good lord! That means Bush could also be a super hero in disguise!
And it's easier to say "Not a super hero" rather than "hypocritical bastard."
Hypocritical, yes. The bastard is a harder call.
The bastard is a harder call.
Well, metaphorical bastard. Not actual bastard. That would be Alexander Hamilton. Who was less of a hypocrite.
his disguise was as a power-grubbing, executive-privilege expanding hypocrite?
With a mask! And spandex!
