>>I'm not sure what the "left" has to do with the Indians. I don't think the Spaniards were that far left when they eliminated any religious opposition with Coronado. But then again, "left" and "liberal" always gets some nice salivation forming.

This response, ironically, is very "leftist":

1) It misrepresents the post being responded to, which simply stated that the Indians shouldn't have trusted the government.

2) Accuses others of anger and irrationality (ie, "salivation forming."

3) Tells us to blame ourselves.

Look, all I want is to be left the hell alone. My wife and I work our a$$es off every day to make life better for ourselves and our kids. I'm not Republican, I'm not Democrat, I'm a member of the "I just want to be left the hell alone" party. But please don't pretend the "left" (or "Progressives" or "modern Liberals", whatever term you want to use) aren't the ones pushing full throttle for more and more government control, regulations and socialist, transfer-of-wealth policies. That's just denying reality.

Given the election results this past Tuesday, I don't think I'm alone. You might be your own worst enemy, but don't project that on me and the tens of millions of others who agree with me. And I know it doesn't seem to matter to a lot of people these days, but there is also a Constitution that is supposed to be adhered to.

Sorry, Charlie.
