President

George Washington

"Reason and experience both forbid us that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle."
 
John Adams

, America's second president, said,
 
"The United States Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other."<?xml:namespace prefix = o /><.></.>

lluke47 --- George Washington was a right-wing, slave-owning, fascist war criminal!
 
I much prefer Marxist-socialist world leaders like Lenin, Stalin, Castro, Kim Jong-Il, and our very own President Barack Obama!

washington's words ring especially hollow since he was one of the largest slaveholders in the country and kept slaves until he died.  so, you know, fuck him.  you can't be a christian and think anybody has the right to own another human being, bitch.  and you can find plenty of remarks attributed to both of these guys where they question all religion and call for a clear separation of church and state.   and if you were just a little smarter you would know God is not mentioned ONE TIME IN THE CONSTITUTION...NOT ONCE....

[Dardmex]

hoosier daddy --- Yeah, that's what I said.  Also, Washington owned slaves.  He was worse than Hitler!

A lot of chimps had slaves back in the day as well you fake human debris...
 
Prove Washington or John Adams had slaves you lying trash...
 
This country was founded on the values of Christianity by white Christians and nothing trash like you can say or do will ever change that, you fake human debris..
 
That's why you fake human trash hate the constitutiion, because it was designed and written with Christianity as its core...

[hoosier_daddy]

If you do not mind I would like to tweek John Adam's quote, I am certain it suited him but it does not suit me, morally speaking religions like political parties can be too exculsive.  It was the best one could do considering John Adams.

George Washington was a slave owner for practically all of his professional life. His will provided for freeing his slaves upon the death of his widow Martha Washington, but she emancipated them about 12 months after his death. Although Washington personally opposed the institution of slavery after the American Revolutionary War, as President, he authorized emergency financial and military relief to French slave owners in Haiti to suppress a slave rebellion that began in 1791.

Washington signed the Northwest Territory Act that banned slavery in the Northwest Territory in 1789, but did not free slaves already in the territory. The 1790 Naturalization Act provided a means to incorporate foreigners as United States citizens, but provided for naturalization only of whites (Caucasians). Washington signed the 1793 Fugitive Slave Law, the first to provide for the right of slaveholders to recapture slaves even in free states that had abolished slavery.


When Washington was eleven years old, he inherited ten slaves;

by the time of his death, 316 slaves lived at Mount Vernon, including 123 owned by Washington, 40 leased from a neighbor, and an additional 153 "dower slaves." For his wife's Martha's use during her lifetime and controlled by Washington, they were legally part of the property of her late first husband's estate. As on other plantations during that era, Washington's slaves worked from dawn until dusk unless injured or ill; they could be whipped for running away or for other infractions. They were fed, clothed, and housed as inexpensively as possible, in conditions that were probably meager.
Visitors recorded contradictory impressions of slave life at Mount Vernon: one visitor in 1798 wrote that Washington treated his slaves "with more severity" than his neighbors, while another around the same time stated that "Washington treat[ed] his slaves far more humanely than did his fellow citizens of Virginia."

Washington's writings show that he had a low opinion of the honesty and work ethic of his slaves, as well as of the ability of his overseers to control them. The overseers were given written authorization to whip those slaves he considered to be in need of such "correction," including female slaves.

One problem etripper, the Devil loves a moral person, he knows he will be seeing you..
 
It took us forever to convince our Father of that and finally he realized it wasn't enough, maybe you will as well..
