Yes, but that wasn't really George's fault. Parliament already had most of the power by then (Also, he was starting to lose his mind, but that's beside the point). In fact, George's efforts in getting I believe the Stamp Tax repealed actually got him a statue in NYC back in the 1760's. The one thing we can really hold him responsible for in the leadup to the war itself was his rejection of the Olive Branch Petition, but more of the blame there lies with John Adams for sabotaging it. That said, he made an excellent figurehead. --- Nonsense. "Testing" is for when you're still guessing--and now, I have no need to guess. -- Agatha, Girl Genius <cite>dowolf posted [p:884439296] in Politics C...
