Comment on Kansan plans to turn hay into fuel by Lars Gnugnu

Yes, biofuel is just another way to keep from admitting we need to use less carbon-based energy. My cat gets by using as little energy as possible, but I have to pay for it.

Ok Lars, you must know that basically biofuels are a sham because they use coal to produce it and you know how they get their coal (mountaintop mining). Besides, Bush endorses biofuels, as well as NUKE-YOU-LER power plants, which means BAD BAD BAD!

My cats have this attitude: what’s yours is mine and what’s mine is mine. I think most people who are in power in government are cats. I know I wouldn’t like mine so much if they were actually people

Now, Lorenzo. I don’t know if we can or should domesticate all the wolves, whether of the canis lupus or Cheney variety. But by being brave enough to offer a little mutton to that first wolf that ventured into the camp, one of our ancestors taught us a valuable lesson. A dog in the lap is better than one clamped on your leg.

Allocation of resources. Everything is finite in this world. Are you saying we have to make peace with our enemies and share our resources? This is very seditious talk. No less a personage than V.P. Dick Cheney says we should invade any country that has what we want and not share it with anyone else. This is survival!! You Socialists would have us believe that sharing is the better way. How can that be? We have to see other people starving and in peril to feel good about ourselves. Its Mine, Its Mine, Its Mine. That is the philosophy that has been turned into . Support our troops who are battling to further this philosphy of the mighty get the spoils and be Damned to the bastards who try to keep our just deserts from us.

Comment on Obama advises Hillary to blow her nose. by Suzanne Miller

The sad thing about Clinton’s recent wins is that she played the negative advertising card to do it. Do we really want someone like that in the white house again? Or the other horrible alternative: McCain.

speaking as a “squaw spouse” I am happy for the help the wattomie-potts have given to my spouse. Not being an object of their largesse is I suppose, a punishment for not feeling guilty about my great-great-grandfathers sins against them or Indians in general. I also do not feel gulty about the treatment of the Nisei during WWII since at ages 0-4 I was more interested in where my next bottle was coming from.

I find it ironic that the Indians and their casinos are doing to the white man what we did to them in times past. It pays for my wife’s medication and also for some caregiver monies which does impact me positively.
Mr. Barrett is a master at finding government funding both for the Indians and for his own enterprises. As long as it is legal, I say
more power to Rocky and any other little pebbles that want to increase my wife’s standard of living and care. You don’t even have to pull a lever nowadays but rather punch a button to fritter away
your hard earned shekels at Firelake Grand Casino.

Well Charles, you did me one better, I didn’t even watch. I didn’t want to break out the pepto dismal just before bedtime.

David asked Rocky and I believe it is tribal policy. We use our Kaiser healthcare in any case because it covers both of us for everything.

In other news, I was very disappointed that Kucinich had to drop out. David already voted for him on his absentee ballot.

Here’s my prediction for the election for what it’s worth. Hillary and McCain will be in a tight race with her possibly winning the popular vote but not the electoral: the race will be decided by Ohio and Florida (in McCain’s favor). Remember, they haven’t fixed the voting rolls or the voting machine mess yet –on purpose.

They BOTH scare me –no end in sight for Iraq or much chance we will get our civil liberties restored anytime in our lifetime.

I wonder if that is a tribal policy or federal law to restrict spouses.

Help the Indians? Bill/Hillary Clinton? That’s really funny. None of our presidents has done anything about replacing the millions/billions that the BIA has stolen from Indian tribes. Forget releasing Leonard Peltier! And they continue to rape the land “given” to the Indians whenever they discover resources they want on/in it.

I have no reason to believe that Edwards or Obama or McCain, for that matter, would be any different. Luckily for the Potawatomis, they have Rocky, who just beats them at their own game. The only problem with the benefits the tribe provides is that they are not for spouses, which leaves me in the cold as far as tribal health care is concerned.
