(This person is kinda upset that I dissed their favorite browser. I actually use Chrome and I like it, but for some reason the layout here is different than on Firefox. And of course, the iPad and IE just plain suck. You tool.)

Charles J. Guiteau

Charles J. Guiteau was the assassin of President James A. Garfield. Guiteau had actually supported Garfield in the election of 1880 but when he went to Washington seeking a diplomatic post as his reward he was rebuffed. The mentally unstable Guiteau decided to assassinate Garfield and wrote on the morning of the murder that "the president's tragic death was a sad necessity, but it will unite the Republican party and save the Republic. ...I have no ill-will toward the president. His death was a political necessity."
