While I was in South Dakota I went to Mt Rushmore. It is a beautiful work of art honoring some of our best presidents-George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln.
In the evening they have a lighting ceremony which a ranger gives a talk, show a video, take down the flag and light the faces. It is truly an inspiring experience.
Last year Sarah went out on her bus tour and visited the Liberty Bell, got her facts wrong about Paul Revere, visited DC and Ronald Reagan's birthplace.
There is one place Sarah should visit.
Mt. Rushmore-the SHRINE OF DEMOCRACY.
I don't know if Sarah has ever been to Rushmore but if she hasn't why not?
Two founding fathers are sculpted up there...Washington and Jefferson. But maybe Sarah does not know that.
Perhaps Sarah secretly hates the presidents that are on Mt. Rushmore.
George Washington may have been gay and certainly dressed like one. He also refused to be a king and would not run for a third term.
Thomas Jefferson was a deist and wrote his own version of the Bible.
Abraham Lincoln stomped on state's rights and freed the brown skinned people.
Theodore Roosevelt was for the common man and was a conservationist and trust buster.
Sarah would learn a lot if she visited Mt Rushmore. So would her family.
The Sturgis rally is over now so it won't be as crowded either.
What are you waiting for Sarah?
