In 2026 What Better Way to Celebrate 250th

His Excellency, the Most Honorable George Washington, Father of Our Country:

Question for the American people:

In 2026, what better way to celebrate the 250th anniversary year of the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America than to BRING GEORGE WASHINGTON BACK TO WASHINGTON?

The Farewell Address of His Excellency, the Most Honorable George Washington, has been PHASED OUT OF WASHINGTON by the charlatans and scoundrels who pose in front of the American flag inside government buildings surrounded by barricades and armed guards in the District of Columbia. They think it was a place where postal letter-carriers delivered his mail, else some outdated and useless artifact that has no relevance in modern-day governance and international diplomacy. Nothing could be further from the truth.

This writer doesn't know about you but, on his most recent visit to Arlington National Cemetery, he once again contemplated the service and sacrifices those grave markers represent and his firm conclusion was that they didn't do what they did for a government that would eventually PHASE GEORGE WASHINGTON OUT OF WASHINGTON.

That argument can readily be refuted by an editorial in The Evening Star --then the preeminent newspaper in our nation's capital-- dated September 19, 1896 . It read: 

 ``It might reasonably be supposed that the lapse of years and the social and industrial revolutions that have taken place since the physical Washington ceased to be would have brought so much of change in our institutions as would make the valedictory of the first president antiquated and useless; as a matter of fact, the words of the nation's father are as easily applicable today as they were a century ago." 

That statement rings as true today as it did then and as it will 500 years from now and to eternity...
