I have friends that work at 2 of the Indian Casinos here in Okla, they all got turkeys from the tribes for thanksgiving. Guess we’re more enlightened here.

Let us pray that our dear leader Chairman ObaMAO hasn’t outlawed all Christian holidays by next year.

As the mother of nine Minnesota Chippewa enrolled children, I have no problem with Thanksgiving pageants. In fact, PLEASE. PLEASE let us have more of that type of thing! Are you kidding me? Here we have an annual lesson in cooperation, thankfulness and love using fun, creative methods to teach the kids with. It gives the kids a history lesson while showing them how different groups can get along and enjoy each other, even if they don’t agree on all aspects of life.

This lesson teaches that it’s possible to set aside differences and enjoy each other. And Kids have fun doing it! And yet, here come the intolerant, self-righteous thought police, bent on causing division and anger in their ever nasty pursuit of what they perceive as tolerance and love.

What’s wrong with kids learning that their father’s ancestor’s might have sat down with their mother’s ancestors and had a great meal? I think it’s an awesome thing to think about! (MOST tribally enrollable children are less than 100% Native American today. Most are in fact less than 50% Native American.)

Even if the story isn’t completely historical, the fact is that it did happen – they did sit down together and celebrate. I say all those anal people that want this type of pageant to stop should pull their kids out of public school and homeschool them. Leave the rest of us alone.

Will Rogers said that when so many Okies migrated to California during the Depression era Dust Bowl, that “It raised the I.Q. of both places.” Based on the kind of thinking that the P.C. folks out that way show us these days, it looks like we should have sent more and smarter Okies. (oxymoron?)

I give thanks that we have you there, Dale. You offset at least 100 or so of the P.C. clowns.

Have a great Thanksgiving.
