In
Charleston's Historic District, on our America for Americans Whistle Stop Tour, we sat down
on a tree protected bench in Washington Square, founded in 1881 and
funded by a committee headed by Palmetto Native General Westmoreland.
Our
wish was rest and respite from the heat and humidity in the so-called
High Season, before July August heat and humidity drive even the locals
to air conditioning.
Charleston
is where Comic Pundit Stephen Colbert grew up in a white waterfront
mansion, according to Harry, the accomplished Spirit Line Harbour Tour
Guide.
Next
to the bench was a beautiful larger than life John Michel sculpture of
America's first President, with thoughtful inspired inscription that
described General and President Washington as a man of Honesty,
Integrity, Moral Authority and Quiet Leadership that promoted the best
of competing philosophies that united different interest groups.
The
Washington Inscription, Marker and Statue is some 966 miles from
Boston, which gets credit for educational diversity, religious tolerance
and a Tea Party, in fact after Charleston.
Washington, less educated or talented than many, earned the sobriquet as our Founding Father.
As
previously posted, GW serves as an inspiration to the Silver Senator
and 2012 voters, tired of partisan politics and intending to elect
leaders who represent, serve and unite them.
