Bush Made Honorary Tribal Member.....
Gotta love those native americans......


On a recent campaign trip through Wisconsin, President Bush visited the
City of Green Bay and met with the elders of the One Indian Nation Tribe.
He said he had a plan to improve the income of every Native American, by
$40,000 a year. Details of the plan were not presented, despite
frequent requests to do so.

President Bush also informed the elders that, during his presidential
career, he had endorsed every Native American issue that came to his office.

President Bush was adopted as a member of the Oneida Nation and given
the name Walking Eagle. After the president left, one of the elders was
asked the significance of the name Walking Eagle. His response---





" Bird so full of shit it cannot fly "

3. BAH-dump!
That reminds me of another story:

Bush went out to a New Mexico tribe noted for raising fine cattle and made a stump speech.

"The Bush administration pledges to help small ranchers and farmers such as yourself make a decent living in a world dominated by multinational agricultural corporations!"

The crowd let out a great roar:

"Hoya, hoya, hoya!!"

Bush continued, "And I'm here to tell you, you'll all be keeping more of what you earn thanks to my tax cuts!"

"Hoya, hoya, hoya!!"

"I tell you this administration stands firm with the Indian Nations and fully back your struggle for equality and independence. I pledge to honor all treaties between the US government and your tribe from this day forward!"

One final, thunderous shout:

"Hoya, hoya, hoya!"

As the crowd dispersed, Bush met with several of the tribal elders for a photo op with the tribe's prized cattle. As he toured the facility, he asked one of the elders how he thought the speech went.

"Just great, Mr. President," replied the elder. Then he reached a hand out to guide Bush and added, "Be careful not to step in this hoya."

4. What? No plan?
Sounds like it will never happen. Remember children: If Bush uses money, and doesn't have a plan, it will go terribly wrong.
