The True Story of Thanksgiving - Rush H. Limbaugh III (Full transcript and full video link w/Rush reading at link)

The point is The True Story of Thanksgiving is spreading, and I couldn’t be happier about that. 
  • Here’s the version you were probably taught:
The Pilgrims arrived here after an arduous trip across the Atlantic Ocean. They didn’t know why they were, had no idea what to do. They had nothing. The Indians took pity on them. The Indians saw them, and the Indians saved them. The Indians taught ’em how to do things they didn’t know how to do, like grow food, catch beavers, stuff like that.
The Indians saved them, and the Pilgrims thanked them by growing a whole bunch of food and having this big feast. So, the story of Thanksgiving that’s taught is basically how without the Native Americans there wouldn’t be a country because the Pilgrims would have died. At least the Pilgrims were nice enough to pay the Indians back with a big Thanksgiving dinner.
  • That’s not at all what happened. 
It’s not even close to what happened, which is why I decided to write about it...
