However, A.I.M represents only those Indians who follow the Liberal Leftist agenda - the rest of us are treated with derision and scorn... THAT is part of my problem with them - the underlying leftist agenda.

Of course, its the same with another group that yells "Uncle Tom" when someone has an unsanctioned non-party line political view. Its designed to shout down dissenting views and keep the whole group on the Democratic/Liberal plantation.

However the attitude that I see here is going to do nothing but increase the power of AIM and make the Indians see that Republican/Conservatives have no interest in fulfilling the obligations either. "Put some ice on it" is not going to help form an Indian conservative group or provide an alternative political path for Native Americans is it? The message to them is, - you aren't worth the trouble, have no rights, should have no expectation of us keeping our treaty obligations, will not go after those who steal your money, so just go ahead and stay on the liberal plantation and sink into dependence and victimhood, resort to gambling or whatever to make a living because we are don't care and consider you all to be leftist hatemongers like the worst among you.

Ten to one they'll go to the scuzzy lawyers, the Al Sharpton's, and AIM given no other alternate political path. Then maybe we'll have that "Palestinian" problem after all. Can't say we didn't ask for it.
