Very apposite, I thought!<br /><br />“BARACK OBAMA was invited to address a major gathering of the American Indian Nation two weeks ago in upstate New York. <br /><br />He spoke for almost an hour about his plans for increasing every Native American’s present standard of living. <br />He referred to his time as a U.S. Senator and how he had voted for every Native American issue that came to the floor of the Senate. <br /><br />Although Obama was vague about the details of his plans, he seemed most enthusiastic and spoke eloquently about his ideas for helping his ‘red sisters and brothers.’ <br />At the conclusion of his speech, the Tribes presented Obama with a plaque inscribed with his new Indian name, ‘Walking Eagle.’ The proud President then departed in his motorcade to a fundraiser, waving to the crowds. <br /><br />A news reporter later asked the group of chiefs how they came to select the new name they had given to the President. <br /><br />They explained that ‘Walking Eagle’ is the name given to a bird so full of shit it can no longer fly. <br /><br />And that is true native American wisdom“.Gerardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10521187335760902766noreply@blogger.com
