Or is it the old "Bait and Switch?" Say one thing and do another? Or not caring one way or the other? Congress hasn't been in the business of helping the "Native American Indian," or they would have put a provision in the I.C.R.A for enforcement of "Human and Civil Rights Violations." They could "Champion" a revision to the I.C.R.A to rectify this "Exclusion!" Or it's possible that they don't really care. For you have got to know the "Casino Indians" have "Big Bucks" to make sure this won't ever happen. Again, "It's All About The Money!" Can anyone "Dispute" that this is not the "Case?" For "Indian Country" has suffered at the hands of both these for nothing more then "Greed and Self Interest!" We were here first, and should be treated as such. The "Government and Casino Indians" track record for upholding "Native American Rights" is well known, and doesn't look like it going to change for the better "Anytime Soon."...We will continue our fight for "Justice" against the "Injustice" that is commonplace thoughout "Indian Country." For we aren't going away anytime soon." Erick, thank you for clarifiying why nothing gets done when it comes to the "Native Americans" in their charge.smokeybearnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-3344550284669018172011-12-11T16:16:06.734-05:002011-12-11T16:16:06.734-05:00Again, like I said to your other previous post, th...Again, like I said to your other previous post, this is more of a Congressional problem than an Executive problem.<br /><br />While I greatly agree that tribes like Juaneno need - scratch that, DESERVE - an answer to their petition for federal recognition, the busted mechanics of the administrative nightmare known as the Office of Federal Acknowledgment cannot be easily addressed by the President.<br /><br />It's Congress' problem to administer their own agencies. Asking the President to intervene could constitute a violation of the separation of powers doctrine.Erick Rhoanhttp://erickregalado.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
