I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.

This is why congressmen are useless. Open up the fuckin window if you want dawg its 1776 you don't have to draft any legislation to do it. Use your fuckin hands.

I saw this live when I was in the 6th grade and loved it, though the rest of my class was pretty let down when the curtain dropped without a single combat scene

Returning to it as an adult, it's pretty weird how much of the plot deals with the overwhelming yearning of our founding fathers to get laid. Abigail Adams is all like "John, how about granting women some civil liberties?" and Adams is too busy helping TJ get his dick wet to even send her the pins she asked for.

"There are fair questions about shooting non-lethally at retreating civilian combatants."
Fun fact: Nixon's administration tried to get the "ever to the right, always to the right" song pulled from the movie version. No dice.

The musical actually deals with this in the song "Molasses to Rum." South Carolina delegate Edward Rutledge calls out the Northern delegates for the hypocrisy of condemning slavery while participating in the slave trade:

Give it a listen, it's a good song AND it teaches you about triangular trade.

While this is certainly the best song in the musical, John's laugh in response to the "one thing every woman's missed" is still the best line in the entire show.
