A modest proposal:

To the contemporary white supremacists who pro-claim themselves "pro-"legal" immigration".

I believe you are all aware, gentlemen, that the establishments of the two foreign encroachments by the barbarians termed Jamestown and Plymouth was quite illegal. The Americans never made such deals with those foreigners who were buying our land and taking our women. Yet nowadays the descendants of these illegal immigrants propose to remove the descendants of other illegal immigrants. I propose a fair and equitable trade: since the first group of illegal immigrants took land both from we Americans and the Spaniard interlopers, I suggest that in the interest of America for the Americans, we establish a united polity of Indigenous peoples, and sue to have these illegal immigrants and their descendants removed.

These men came in, took food from us and took our jobs. They did this in perfect ill-faith, and I believe, O spirits from Beyond the Grave that we can outdo Montezuma and the Diarrhea of Doom in revenging ourselves. Who's with me?

-Your obedient servant,

Tecumseh-

Other than the value of protecting your national interests security, at whatever cost (which I respect and admire), frankly I don't see much more values to parade around with.

How 'bout "Might makes Right"? after all we are the "biggest kid on the block" and as we become more and more secular that seems to be the best value we have left. We don't even have to parade it around, just stand up and say "double dog dare you".

Well *you* are being frank about it. But you're not a politician.

I was going for your Mao icon. What have I said to make you take me so seriously lately????? (you are my internet idol and my feelings are hurt)

You should've known by now that there's always something un-serious about anything I ever say. Keep that in mind the next time you decide that I'm taking you, or anyone else, including myself, seriously. :-P

How about our goals as a nation? Free speech, fairness, equal opportunity, right to assembly, consent of the governed, all that..

Sheesh!!!

I really didn't think I needed to put a TIC tag on that.

Sorry, I get cantankerous at times, especially in the morning.

I understand that, I usually am myself :D

The peculiar thing is, that normally you have a tendency to "drive me up the wall" in disagreement, and here I found myself going "yeah, preach it brother". so I addressed my comment in a tic manner to mahnmut. It's all good:D

Built on a solid foundation of genocide and treaty violation.

Everyone has freedom of speech, though ones freedom after something is said cannot be counted upon.

Frankly, you need to open your eyes a bit wider. It's unfortunate that 8 years of President Bush has given many around the world exactly the impression you have.
