Video Licks: ‘Forgotten A**oles of History’ Finds A Despicable Woman

Siobhan Thompson

As it turns out it’s a lot easier to track down the nasty men in history than it is to find that gem of a deplorable woman. Luckily, (or not) Forgotten A-holes of History found Mary Surratt for us to fume over for a moment. She may not be a Hitler or a Stalin, but she did conspire to have president Abraham Lincoln assassinated. Perhaps it’s a good thing the dudes of our past didn’t find ladies powerful enough to be worthy of a notation in the history books because we’re looking pretty darn saintly right now. Thanks, guy! Enjoy! (WARNING: Some buggy bits)
