Jefferson's sister

Cabinet Battle #1

Olivia took a deep breathe as she, Thomas and Madison sat down and waited for Washington to start the Cabinet meeting. Madison was to sick to say long speeches so Olivia and Thomas would do most of the talking.

Washington then walked to the middle of the room and said "Ladies and gentlemen, you could have been anywhere in the world tonight but you're here with us in New York City are you ready for a cabinet meeting, huh? The issue on the table, Secretary Hamilton's plan to assume state debt and establish a national bank Secretary Jefferson's, you have the floor, you 2."

Jefferson:
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
We fought for these ideals, we shouldn't settle for less
These are wise words, enterprising men quote 'em
Don't act surprised, you guys, 'cause I wrote 'em (ow)

Olivia:
But Hamilton forgets
His plan would have the government assume state's debts
Now, place your bets as to who that benefits
The very seat of government where Hamilton sits

Alexander glared at her and shouted "Not True!"

Jefferson:
Oh, if the shoe fits, wear it
If New York's in debt, why should Virginia bear it?
Uh, our debts are paid, I'm afraid
Don't tax the South 'cause we got it made in the shade

Olivia:
In Virginia, we plant seeds in the ground
We create, you just wanna move our money around
This financial plan is an outrageous demand
And it's too many damn pages for any man to understand

Jefferson:
Stand with me in the land of the free and pray to God we never see Hamilton's candidacy
Look, when Britain taxed our tea, we got frisky

Olivia:
Imagine what gon' happen when you try to tax our whisky

Olivia and Thomas went back over to James as Washington said "Thank you, Secretary Jefferson's. Secretary Hamilton, your response"

Thomas, Olivia, that was a real nice declaration
Welcome to the present, we're running a real nation
Would you like to join us, or stay mellow
Doin' whatever the hell it is you do in Monticello?
If we assume the debts, the union gets new line of credit, a financial diuretic
How do you not get it, if we're aggressive and competitive
The union gets a boost, you'd rather give it a sedative?
A civics lesson from a slaver, hey neighbor
Your debts are paid 'cause you don't pay for labor
"We plant seeds in the South. We create." Yeah, keep ranting
We know who's really doing the planting
And another thing, Mr. Age and Mrs. Age of Enlightenment
Don't lecture me about the war, you didn't fight in it
You think I'm frightened of you, guys?
We almost died in a trench
While you were off getting high with the French

Olivia glared daggers at him and was about to march over to him but Thomas held her back.

Jefferson's, always hesitant with the President
Reticent there isn't a plan he doesn't jettison
Madison, you're mad as a hatter, son, take your medicine
Damn, you're in worse shape than the national debt is in
Sittin' there useless as two shits
Hey, turn around, bend over, I'll show you where my shoe fits

This time Thomas marched over to Hamilton but before things could get violent, Washington and Olivia stepped in between the two and pushed Jefferson and Hamilton away.

Washington:
Excuse me, Madison, Jefferson's, take a walk, Hamilton, take a walk, we're gonna reconvene after a brief recess, Hamilton

Hamilton!
Sir

Washington:
A word

Washington walked away but before Hamilton could follow him, Madison said "You don't have the votes"

Jefferson:
you don't have the votes)
Aha-ha-ha ha

Olivia, Thomas and James:
You're gonna need congressional approval and you don't have the votes

Thomas:
Such a blunder sometimes it makes me wonder why I even bring the thunder

Olivia:
Why he even brings the thunder

Hamilton glared at the 3 of them before walking away, Olivia smirked and high fives Thomas and Madison before they walk back to their office to celebrate winning.
