That’s close to the sense I was getting. That they were as native as the Indians.
Not every paleface reference to Indians is uncomplimentary, liberal fretting notwithstanding. The existing reservation system is probably suboptimal for tribes who would rather be roaming around in vast wildernesses, but it is a compromise.
Is the left deliberately letting it slip that they hate this country from its founding? They're not attacking a particular philosophy or political point of view but the very roots of America at this stage.
We've been saying this from day one and now they don't even make much effort to hide it.
