Watching an old PBS series about the Revolutionary War . . .
General Burgoyne sounds like Scott Walker. What would an ordinary soldier like Joshua Plumb Martin think of what this country has become? I think he would say that we need a new revolution against the likes of the Koch brothers. But then, there is Madison, Indianapolis, Columbus, and others . . .

1. Was that the series "Liberty"?
I know Tom Paine and John Adams would be ready to suit up again.

2. Yes, that's "Liberty."
I have it on DVD. It was made in 1997, I believe. It even has an actor I am quite fond of, Victor Garber, appearing briefly as John Dickinson.
