Remember all the money that some Oklahoma tribes are spending on media campaigns? Well it doesn't appear to be working so far. Here's one Oklahoman that the Chickasaw Nation won't be winning over...
I was going to buy an MG produced in Ardmore until I found out that Indians were being given "most favored nation" trade status. Wake up, America! Indian sovereignty, with all its contractual, gaming, legal and tax exemptions, is the most insidious legal fiction ever foisted on an unsuspecting public. It gives a new slant to the phrase "made in America." Which America is that -- the United States or "Native"?
