James Madison’s war message which was used to justify the War of 1812 included the following paragraph about the “Native Americans”:
… except for one paragraph, “the warfare just renewed by the savages on one of our extensive frontiers - a warfare which is known to spare neither age nor sex and to be distinguished by features peculiarly shocking to humanity.” (Nugent, 82)

I was going to write about this yesterday. Auster beat me to it. I have nothing to say aside from not being surprised in the least. Any political orientation (conservatism) that is not explicitly grounded in kinship and interest is worthless from a preservationist perspective. It crumbles under pressure.

The Occidental Dissent forum has been restored. All the old posts and accounts are still there. I’m especially pleased to see that the original American Racial History Timeline (with hundreds of entries) is intact. The new address will be released after we trim up the database.

Kunstler on his social vision:
The sclerosis of American life is shocking. If you go further north up the Hudson River, to Fort Edward and Hudson Falls, you’ll see a nation that seems ready to crawl off and die. There, it appears too far gone to even put up a proxy fight on a video screen. Frankly, I don’t want that version of America to survive — the America of chain stores, and muscle cars, and grown men obsessed with video games, drugs, and pornography, and women decorated like cannibals, and the vast, crushing purposelessness of it all. I have no doubt we’re heading into a convulsion that will wring much of this junk and dross into the backwaters of history.

Free black males lost the right to vote in Connecticut and Rhode Island in 1818 and 1822 respectively. They got it back around the time of the Civil War. I have added many new entries to the American Racial History Timeline. Check it out.
More below on the racial heritage of the Democratic Party:
The party proclaimed itself the tribune of the common white man, as against all other groups in the society, whether of class, race, or gender. In particular, it defined itself, even in the North, as the protector of slavery. (Howe, 524)
Today, the Democratic Party is the perverted tribune of non-whites, women, homosexuals, non-Christians and other social deviants, but exactly the opposite was true in the early nineteenth century. It was an unabashed white racialist organization. In contrast, Northern Federalists and Whigs opposed Indian Removal in the Old Southwest, were for black suffrage, and generally opposed westward expansion (the Louisiana Purchase, the Mexican War, purchase of Cuba, expansion into Latin America and the Caribbean).

A strong background in American history is the most thorough antidote that I know of to much of the nonsense that prevails in the mainstream. This touches upon the Tanstaafl vs. Auster dispute below. In the nineteenth century, the term “Native American” used to be synonymous with “Anglo-Americans,” or English-speaking, native born whites:
Starting in 1835 (Samuel Morse), he led the Native American Democratic Association in New York, a city which already contained substantial Irish Catholic neighborhoods. (In those days “Native American” meant whites born in the United States, not American Indians.) (Howe, 321)
This just goes to show how our own language has been hijacked and manipulated (discourse poisoning, as I call it) to promote an anti-white political and cultural agenda.
