Yeah I caught some of it. People need to be reminded always who we really are, and why we should be proud. I want someone to make a raw documentary about the founding fathers and who they really were. All the pot and hemp, alcohol, and war that's never talked about. How many of them were tourtured and had their families slain and lost all of their possessions by the British. And how full of shit National Treasure was. Lol.

the only thing it needed was brendan fraser. Then it would be the greatest film in history.

I learned more from that show than I did during all of my high school education.  It really put it all together for me, such a sweet show.
