Offering reeducation, the ability to buy into there health care programs, and various other aids to soften the effect of there financial blow.<BR/><BR/>Now lets turn to Pechanga and how they treated the Indians they let go, there own relatives, and there elderly. We got jeering laughter, mockerings, snikering and jokes like "GET A JOB" (I would like to add many of the Hunters were already employed, but unsure how some of our elders are supposed to get a job at there advanced ages). Not even an offer to help some become employable (I know some were handicapped and are having a real hard time).Luisenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01716990645661766960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-53086187185995782902008-06-10T10:57:00.000-04:002008-06-10T10:57:00.000-04:00INTERESTING POST ON ANOTHER THREAD.

They don't want to lose the advertising dollars that this Tribe brings in, therefore the truth about this Guy will never come to light in that paper. Granted, once in a while they will print a little article that scims over some things this Tribe does but never the real nitty gritty and the corruption and evil this Guy allowed to happen on the Reservation. I have written letters to the opinion page at the P.E. NONE WHERE EVER PUBLISHED. To many advertising dollars involved.stand your groundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18166643468060304659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-44190027922492446622008-05-26T01:34:00.000-04:002008-05-26T01:34:00.000-04:00Hey, how come the PE didn't say anything about thi...Hey, how come the PE didn't say anything about this when the election was happening?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-47108243112178337872008-05-25T20:13:00.000-04:002008-05-25T20:13:00.000-04:00HYPOCRISY, Thy name is Pechanga.HYPOCRISY, Thy name is Pechanga.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-43404365024000645892008-05-25T11:37:00.000-04:002008-05-25T11:37:00.000-04:00Well, this is certainly news that I don't read in ...Well, this is certainly news that I don't read in the Press Enterprise.<BR/><BR/>Why is that?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-35972568338478938772008-05-25T11:36:00.000-04:002008-05-25T11:36:00.000-04:00I certainly don't hate tribes.
