Wrong. But consistent.

I'm sure the dickheads in Texas eat this shit up, though.
The Muslim clerics have some worthy competition for "stupidest fucks on the planet".
It's a horse race, to be sure.

Later the civilisation grows and becomes somewhat more civilised. A new document is penned which whilst claiming to be merely an extension of base principles, would have actually completely condemned and forbidden the circumstances and actions which formed the nation.
Who said America isn't based on biblical principles
Yeah...but...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trail_of_Tears
Quote:The Trail of Tears is a name given to the ethnic cleansing and forced relocation of Native American nations from southeastern parts of the United States following the Indian Removal Act of 1830. The removal included many members of the Cherokee, Muscogee (Creek), Seminole, Chickasaw, and Choctaw nations, among others in the United States, from their homelands to Indian Territory in eastern sections of the present-day state of Oklahoma. The phrase originated from a description of the removal of the Choctaw Nation in 1831.[1]
Many Native Americans suffered from exposure, disease and starvation on the route to their destinations. Many died, including 2,000-6,000 of 16,542 relocated Cherokee.[2][3][4] European Americans and African American freedmen and slaves also participated in the Chickasaw, Choctaw, Muscogee Creek and Seminole forced relocations.
40 years after the constitution we were just moving into high gear. Of course, the blacks were still slaves and the women may as well have been. A close study of American history is eye-opening.
