#1 What happened to American Mega-fauna after their ancestors arrived, that's what I would like to ask.

#2 Good job he's not stereotyping an entire group...
Oh.

#3 Oh, wisdom like setting the forest on fire to drive deer or driving entire herds of buffalo over cliffs?

#4 Oh, about those Anasazi who overbuilt in the desert and had to abandon their villages and dwellings cause they consumed more resources than the environment would support? - see California. Wisdom would be about learning from the past. The record of the past that the socialists systemically seek to destroy.

#6 Long before the United States was even an idea, your ancestors were harvesting the crops

Our FLOTUS is an idiot.

#7 Long before the United States was even an idea, your ancestors were harvesting the crops that would feed the world for centuries to come

Would feed the world for centuries to come? Our FLOTUS is still an idiot.

#8 She may have a point. There's nothing wrong with Washington that a Comanche war party couldn't fix.

#9 Long before the United States was even an idea, your ancestors were harvesting the crops that would feed the world for centuries to come

Which didn't happen until well after the European settlement of the Plains.

#10 ..yeah, wheat, rye, barley, rice. How did the world do without till they discovered these 'new' continents?

#11 "Today on issues like conservation and climate change we are finally beginning to embrace the wisdom of your ancestors"

Somehow the ideas of driving buffalo over a cliff or setting wildfires to drive game out don't seem to be environmentally sensitive.

#12 Thinking about this Comanche Dawg Soldier expedition Matt brought up. Might have some merit. Pretty sure my grandmother must have been Comanche part-wise from the switching sides I got, count me in on your war party.

#13 The Renaissance was well underway while the tribes of NA still hadn't figured out the wheel. They did discover peyote though, which may have been what FLOTUS was on when she babbled off this oratory gem.

#14 "bloviating her pro-Robert Mugabe, hate America, hate Euro-colonist theme" Pretty much what many modern pseudo-educated native Americans are parroting now.

#15 Long before the United States was even an idea, my ancestors ATE your ancestors. Our digestive systems are still upset.

#16 All culture's, like, equal, you know,
So Injuns need Marx and Rousseau!
They no needum wampum,
Just commies to swamp 'em
With Chomsky, Fanon, and Foucault.


Outstanding.

#18 Would it be considered wrong to drive all the Democrats over a cliff and thus save the buffalo???

#19 My mother used to say that if her NA ancestors had eaten every single person who showed up in a ship, we wouldn't be in this mess.
