But, but, but..... Some RP'ers found an article by a Sioux that was offended by what he said! Face it, he will not please all of the people all of the time, but was what he said false? Did he lie? Nope.... People need to address the real issues (people lying for decades about heritage to get ahead), and not their Derangement Syndromes... BTW, I have Native American relatives and they all love that he called her BS out! Thanks for the story and have a great day buddy!

SSgt Christopher Brose - Funny how that works.... But I have a sinking feeling that a lot of people voted for Trump who couldn't stomach Hillary. I wonder if those that did would have swung to Bernie, and would Bernie have had a larger voter turnout... But, we don't know...

LT Brad McInnis - That whole mess is one of the reasons I don't call the Democrat Party the "Democratic" Party -- with the existence of Super Delegates and clear evidence of cheating, they're simply not democratic. Besides, they used to be universally known as the Democrat Party.
(Someone somewhere about 15-20 years ago, decided on the name change, IIRC because they accused Republicans of subliminally emphasizing the "rat" in Democrat. That never made sense to me, because spelling it with the adverbial ending doesn't remove the "rat" portion. I think it was around that same time that liberals stopped being liberals and became progressives.)

SSgt Christopher Brose - In college, I was a Political Science major. In one class we did a very interesting exercise... we tracked how the 2 traditional parties have changed throughout the years by how the party platforms changed... pretty interesting. I would even argue that JFK could not get the nomination for the Democrat party, today... I agree with you that they have decided, lately, on the Progressive party. It used to be a wing, not it is full on taken over... I guess the good thing throughout our history is that we have always corrected when either side gets way out of whack...

I still wish that President Trump would get it right. Warren isn't "Pocahontas". She's "Faux-cahontas"

Maybe this particular person is not offended. After all, pretty much everything is "offensive" to someone somewhere, especially when people go trolling to find offense for a living. I just saw an article that tried to imply that the White House Christmas decorations were terrifying. WTF.
Having said that, the President invoking the term at a ceremony honoring Navajo code talkers is tacky at best.
Senator Warren's indignation and staking claim to the moral high ground here is equally laughable.
I just wish that we could find more grown up and relavent things to talk about.

PO3 Bob McCord - I think Warren will run, but I don't think she is electable, for the same reasons as Bernie.
Then again, I might have said the same about Trump in a normal year.
