If the indians had been republican

[xoxoxoBruce]

Are there still a lot of pureblood Indians in Mexico? More than here in the states?
As you know, Sycamore claims Indian blood, but methinks it was probably a french Canadian Apache dancer.

Yeah, I had the same thought, B. Analogies seldom hold up under close scrutiny. But it was too funny to pass up.

I firmly believe this one holds up to the closest scrutiny. If we do nothing, the country will change is ways I don't like. That makes it very personal for me. You (collective) may be comfortable with that prospect, but I am not... never will be.

It will always change. Who is to say that the next group of political appointees are not going to stir things up for you any worse than the last?

Well, I do have good rhythm.

My great grandfather was born in northern Oklahoma, in what was known as the Cherokee Outlet in 1902. I have not been able to find his family's name on the Dawes Rolls, so none of my family can be official citizens of the Cherokee Nation at this point.

One of these days, I'd like to seriously research his family line--and the rest of my mother's family line for that matter. I know very little about it, and the rest of my family is just as clueless.

Excellent point! That's why anyone that truly loves this country and what it stood for, must be constantly vigilant for those that don't.

The most common mistake is to say, my guys won so every thing is OK. It's not... it's not OK for anyone to fuck up this country, regardless of who's side appointed or elected them.

Oh yes.

It's going to change anyway. It's ALWAYS changing.

Those that don't love this country?? That's why so many people have always wanted to come here, in any way that they can--they love what this country really stands for.

No, they love the fact that they can come here and make money to send home to encourage others to come and do the same. I bet few illegals understand anything more about what this country stands for other than a monetary motivation and an attempt to change one form of abject poverty to a lessor form of poverty.

Fuck yeah...that's what pure capitalism is all about. Isn't it great?

As long as we make it ok to shoot them as the try to enter the country illegally, sure. Would they be in season all year round? What's the bag limit?

[elSicomoro]

But what's wrong with making money? I thought capitalism was about making money.

You have no idea what you're talking about. But bigots never do, of course.

Yes it is, but these people and Bush, are not changing it for the better.

They love the money they can make. They love the fact they can move around relatively unimpeded. They love the fact that they can flaunt the law with relative impunity. They love getting free medical care at the expense of others.
But they don't love this country, they are Mexicans with no desire to be Americans. Their allegiance is to a foreign country, which is why they fly a foreign flag.
