Liberty's Kids: Est. 1776

     

Liberty's Kids: Est. 17762002



Benjamin Franklin:
Sir, I will tell you what I've told others just like you a hundred times: Congress gave me no power to hire officers.

French Officer:
But I *am* of merit!

Benjamin Franklin:
Sir, you knowing that you are of merit is a good and pleasing thing, but it does not mean it is known to everybody.

French Officer:
You insult me! I am of exceptional merit! Hmph! [storms out]

Benjamin Franklin:
Heaven forbid he has the price of passage. If Congress continues promoting these fools into officers, we will surely lose the war.
