Let's all be honest here.

The problem with so many of Mel Brooks, and some others, movies is that you need to have a certain level of intelligence to get it.  I had to fill in some areas of history to our children before they got it.  The schools have whitewashed some things we learned, and I did not believe it had happened until I started asking questions concerning why the kids did not understand some of the satire.

Worked with a friend yesterday who's sister is a teacher in South Dakota.  While we had Columbus day in most of the Nation, South Dakota celebrated Native American Day.  Not saying that expanding more into the changes that have come to this land since the Europeans came, but she said they did not discuss at all the European expansion for what it was.  She said it has mostly been replaced with how it as effected the Native American culture.

The Bible says, "Tribe follows Tribe and Nation follows Nation" archeology and the history of human migration say the same. most migrations are westward with the most EFFICIENT society surviving, that's why the Huns may have overrun the Roman Empire but they were absorbed by western civilization, not the other way around. Native Americans may have had a commendable philosophy but they had the less efficient society so they got steamrolled by history and have been whining about it ever since.
The Lakota sniveling about the loss of "their lands" in the Dakota's, fact is those WEREN'T their lands until the Huron pushed them out of the Eastern forests with help of Champlain in the 1600's. What about the people displaced and destroyed by the Indians migrations, such as the Athabascans, maybe we should make the "Native Americans" contribute their welfare checks towards a reparation plan for THEIR memory.

Damn ... this is getting way to deep ( intellectually ... not bs) for a guy cooped up in the house on a beautiful fall day.

Can't argue with you though.  Just because this is the 21st century does not mean that history won't continue to march on.  Where will the drive to preserve and protect our great Nation come from when the majority are on the public dole?  Did communism in Russia do anything to foster pride and strength in the people?

I fear that many nations are just waiting for one group in the U.S. to get pushed hard enough to rebel, and then they will overrun a nation in its second Civil War.

The only racists in this race are Obama and the Dems. to quote from his own book " Audacity of Hope" "I developed an antipathy for white people" in other words Obama don't like Honky's., to demonstrate the parties racist policies we only need to look at the anti semitic  bias against Israel. I have yet to hear a republican say don't vote for Obama, he's black. I have heard "Don't vote for Obama because he's a red" (I've used that one myself  ) and I have repeatedly heard Dems say if you don't vote for Obama you are a racist. So WHO is making race an issue ?  Taxes, 2nd Amendment, Supreme court nominees , abortion, these are NOT racial issues so why even bring that up ? Simply because the rest of their platform is a rehash of policies that have failed  every time they have been tried.
Everyone here knows what Obama is, a gun grabbing, racist anti American, liar, who, for 20 years has associated with bigots, racists, communists ,criminals and domestic terrorists, he takes credit for things that can be MADE to look good and shifts blame for things that can't. He has thrown so many associates under the bus during this campaign it's a wonder the wheels still touch the ground.

All this coupled with the fact that the root of much of the surface tension with regard to racism in this country is fueled by those whom profit from it.

If you think the cries of racism are bad now, wait and see what it will be like if Obama wins. There will be no distention allowed, and any disagreement with policy and agenda will be shouted down with the use of the words "bigot" and "racist".

The left has already proven itself to be a hater of all dissenting opinions and they have shown that they will do anything to shut down apposing points of view. The race card will be front and center if Obama becomes president, and will divide this country in a way that we have never seen before.

Can you say true oppression?  Can you say denial of civil rights?  Can you say bigot?  Can you say steal from the worker?
Oh wait...you did when you said "the left"!

Hmmmm...was there some of that around in the 1700's?
