Remember, remember the fifth of November.
Gunpowder, Treason and Plot.
I see no reason why Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot
Fawkes at midnight, and by torchlight there was found
With long matches and devices, underground
O England praise the name of God
That kept thee from this heavy rod!
But though this demon e'er be gone,
his evil now be ours upon!

Fawkes is known for his involvement in the Gunpowder Plot of 1605.
Gunpowder and wood was placed in a cellar under the House of Lords in Parliament.
The material was found on November 4Th. Fawkes arrested November 5, 1605.
Of Course, the Republican Governors knew this. They wanted to draw the correlation, because they know every child in the US has extensive knowledge of British History. Americans would immediately jump to that conclusion. Not that our elections are held in November, that would be just silly......
