talkpoliticsOh Ricky, Ricky, Ricky - your poor mind has become so warped over the years. Yes true, there wasn't a McDonalds, Lowes or RR system built by them, when 'injuns' were laying around existing on nothing but oxygen alone.
Rick Santorum Slammed for Saying America Was Birthed From Nothing, There 'Isn't Much Native American Culture'
CNN's Rick Santorum is being heavily criticized for insisting that the United States was built on a blank slate, ignoring the history and culture of the country's Indigenous people.
What a dumbass. When Captain Cook sailed into Nootka Sound on Vancouver Island the people he found there lived fuller, richer lives than any of his seamen did at home in London. Their art and culture were very important and accessible to all.
Kinda what happens when, between guns/swords/disease, you nearly complete a genocide against a people and then spend the next few centuries marginalizing them.
No wonder these scum bitched so hard about being called "deplorables". They knew full well an accurate description would be too offensive to print.
Btw, "CNN's Rick Santorum"? How'd that happ'n!?
