History blogging!

In the debate, Senator Biden called Dick Cheney "the most dangerous vice president we've had probably in American history." Now Dick Cheney is genuinely a bad guy, but I think that this does a grave disservice to Vice President Aaron Burr, who not only shot Alexander Hamilton, but actually killed the guy. He had to flee New Jersey in order to avoid being charged with murder. He was later tried for treason for trying to seize control of part of what is now Texas.



Also--like last time, I listened to the debate on NPR. Did Sarah Palin really keep winking at the camera?

pew pew pew!
