'Founding Father' of Springfield!

The Controversial Truth
Lisa later proved that "Jebediah Springfield" was in fact a bloodthirsty pirate and enemy of George Washington named Hans Sprungfeld, who had changed his name in 1795 to hide his identity. He wrote his confession on a scrap of paper that formed the "missing piece" of the famously incomplete portrait of George Washington, which he procured when he stepped on the original painting while it was still wet.[2] However, upon seeing the town pride Springfield has for their founder and history, Lisa decided to keep the discovery to herself.

A distinguishing characteristic of Sprungfeld was his prosthetic silver tongue, which was built to replace his real tongue which was bitten off by a Turkish pirate during a grog house fight. According to The Simpsons Guide to Springfield rumors state that the silver tongue is currently in the possession of Mayor Quimby, who uses it as a paperweight.

Death
Springfield is said to have dramatically killed a bear with his bare hands, though revisionist historians have determined the bear in fact probably killed him.[3] A statue depicting Springfield's victory stands in the center of the Springfield town square, in front of the city hall. His secret will contains a confession that he was suffering from then fatal diphtheria and according to Lisa Simpson's research, he died of syphilis. The will also reveals that the untameable buffalo he was believed to have tamed was already tame and that he merely shot it.[4] According to Bart, he may have been shot by Indians after the townspeople traded guns for corn but the Indians shot them and took the corn.

Legacy
Springfield had many famous quotations, such as "A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man", and was well known for his figurative and literal silver tongue. He also wears a coonskin cap.

The Springfield Historical Society, headed by Hollis Hurlbut, is devoted to the study of the town's history, specially Jebediah's. Hurlbut, who is aware of Springfield's true background, keeps the truth hidden.

81. Hi b. Here's my take
Thu Oct 20, 2016, 01:33 AM
Oct 2016

before reading this thread.

I'm liberal. Hillary Clinton did an outstanding job of explaining how liberal policies will best get our economy moving, how they help reduce inequality and create more jobs. She also explained very well how her plans will reduce the deficit while maintaining important programs and expanding health care. On everything from foreign policy to tax policy to equal opportunity, she struck a middle of the road somewhat liberal position that would preserve and advance the successes of the Obama Administration. She appears ready to lead and also ready to work with anyone in Congress who is willing to listen to her and perhaps compromise on some things. She appears unwilling to compromise on Supreme Court appointees (they must allow free choice for women and should oppose Citizens United, for starters) and this delights me as a liberal. I thought it was Hillary's best debate performance. I think she clearly won all three, but in this one she was in particularly fine form, defending her achievements and articulating a clear vision for the present & future.

Donald Trump tried to articulate right wing policies, but his boorish personality and lack of clear speaking made most of sound to me like deflection, personal attacks and gibberish. The key moment for me was when he refused to say he will accept the results of this election. That's the kind of rhetoric that was popular with politicians leading up to and during the Civil War. I don't know of any nominee for a major party in the post-Civil War era who has used such reckless and cynical language during a presidential debate. Simply put, he again demonstrated what he is: a confused angry entitled boorish privileged old racist sexist douchebag motherfucker.

Okay, now onto reading this thread and having more fun!

A very angry stupid bull. I too am glad the debates are over. I think she'll make an excellent President.

I'd like to see our party focus more on running strong youthful liberal candidates in state & congressional races. And getting out the vote in those elections!

We're doing well with the presidency lately. But we're getting our asses kicked at state levels.
