"Our crisis today? It's folly to think we should maintain loyalty to a distant tyrant. It's self-sabotage to pursue reconciliation. For us, right here, right now, reconciliation means ruin. America must separate from Britain. We can't go back to the cozy days before the Stamp Act. You know that's true; it's time to admit it. For heaven's sake, we're already at war!"
