Hate for savages?

I was watching words that made America where celebrities Read the Declaration of independence, Constitution and Bill of Rights. The part NPH read was all about how the king sided with the savages against the Colonists and how terrible the savages (that's the word used in the American Constitution, not mine. Under that definition I'm a Savage. Plus probably only a few Indians spoke English so they did not care. I'm certain they had names for the Colonists also) were. I'm surprised you guy don't seem to know what the declaration of Independence says.

Well, purging history is all the rage these days. Might as well get rid of the Declaration, Bill of Rights and that pesky Constitution too.

Yeah more or less what I just said. Google the Declaration of Independence if you don't believe me. I bet it is nothing like you think it is. It's just a long list of complaints the colonists had against the king. I'm certain they were all valid complaints. It is definitely a product of its time. If Nick Cage actually read the thing I doubt he would have bothered going to all the trouble it took to steal the thing.

Plain and simple, I fly mine because it makes me think of my childhood legends--Bo and Luke Duke!

That words that made America is back on on PBS. Learn your American history from Neil Patrick Harris and Samuel L Jackson.

You lost me when you used the word reinvented. The Confederate flag was not an invention. When and where did you learn how to speak liberal?
