Sam Brownback’s bill “to acknowledge a long history of official depredations and ill-conceived policies by the United States government regarding Indian tribes and offer an apology to all native peoples.” Not surprisingly I received e-mails from conservatives, known and unknown, who said, “No way, and here’s why.” The “here’s why” hinged largely upon the fact that we were at war with the Indian tribes. They fought us tooth and nail and committed their share of atrocities. (Daily Princetonian) Spotted history aside, Opus Dei forges close campus links: Students and faculty accused Father C.
