As you all know my dad was deployed last Sunday to Iraq at 2:00 a.m. in the morning, I want to thank all here who have kept him along with the other troops in harms way in their prayers.
Prayer really works. I am not at liberty to disclose where in Iraq my dad is, but one thing I can say is where he is at there is a lot going on. He called at one in the morning Pacific standard time on Wednesday.
His third day in the field of honor and he was grazed in trhe face by shrapnel durring skirmish with Iraqui insurgents. Was treated in the field and returned to the to his job standing.
I thank the Great Spirit Grandfather for having protected him from losing his life, being that things could have been worse. Others are not that lucky. I thank alll for your prayers.
He still has many months to go in Iraq and hopefully he will be returning home safe and well before again getting redeployed.
I will be starting a support group here on PB for all PB members who have a loved one in harms way in that God forsaken land.
Our troops are the best there is and we need to fully support them at all times.
Their sacrifice is for us and our homeland. It is hoped that people really appreciate their sacrifice. They only follow orders and not to be blamed for their part in the belicose action. Please, do not let the history of Vietnam repeat it'self by blaming the troops and treating them like garbage on their return from the ongoing conflict.
Remind your legislators to insure they are properly taken care of upon their return. There is too much injustice already of misstreatment upon them having returned maimed physically and mentally.
T'a'a' iiyisi ahe'hee.

On that creepy/CRAZY "Focus on Family" website I saw this, and it made my blood curdle.
"COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. �" Pro-life initiative Measure 11 offers South Dakota voters an opportunity to stand in defense of preborn human life during the November election, and carries the endorsement of Focus on the Family Action in conjunction with the South Dakota Family Policy Council.
Both groups are urging South Dakota voters to vote “yes” on Measure 11, which would prohibit abortion except in cases of rape or incest, or when the life or health of the mother is endangered by the continued pregnancy.
“South Dakota continues to be a driving force in efforts to protect women and the preborn from abortion. Focus on the Family Action is pleased to lend its support to this important ballot effort that will result in saving the lives of preborn children,” said Tom Minnery, senior vice president of Government and Public Policy for the organization.
“South Dakotans know the value of human life and the deep threats against it,” South Dakota Family Policy Council President Chris Hupke said. “Our organization pledges to come alongside this historic effort and the state’s voters to help ensure a November victory for Measure 11.”
South Dakota, please say NO, to Pro-life initiative Measure 11!
Focus on the Family is one hellfire and brimstone of an organization, how can anyone worry about Obama, with nuts like that supporting McCain?

I have been away from the site for a while. Last weekend was spent with my dad as family quality time before his getting deployed to Iraq. The dreaded day finally came.
It is very difficult for me and our family. I know that if it is the will of the Great Spirit Grandfather, my dad will return home safely.
He was deployed last Sunday at 2;00 a.m. Pacific Standard time. It was very hard saying goodbye.
Today I came on the site to find that there is a new anthem for America. We all know that one person can not change the National Anthem, but I ask myself, why would anyone suggest this new anthem idea and why would Barack allow for this to be promoted on his site.
This only causes division.
It makes me question the validity of the person that is doing the promotion.
I reffer to the person's background as to his true party loyalty. Is the person really a democrat or a troll passing off as a dem?
I also ask myself what does Barack Obama have to say about the new anthem?
What are the motives behind the new anthem being promoted?
Is this related to a subtle militant move from people that have separatist ideas? This is indeed very disturbing.
I hope someone can shed light on this.
Peace to all here

I have no duobt that John McCain and the Republican Administration have always known where Osama Binladen is and has been all this time.
I also have no doubt that it has not been to their benefit to capture and kill the goose that lay's the golden eggs.
Capturig him too early in the game would have killed their excuse to make the hundreds of millions of dollars in profits for the rich oil barrons, whose trade is making money with sacrificing the lives of young American Patriots for their greed.
This may sound like a conspiracy, but I can assure you I am not the only one that feels this to be the truth.
Being it is now convenient for the republican Administration to insure control of the Administration which has a become a regime more than anything else, they are sure togo directly to where Binladen is , capture him and do an instant replay of the Nuremburg Trials.
The capture of Osama Binladen will miraculously become a reality within the next 60 days, by the time that all the hoopdelah of the Republicans capturing World wide Enemy number ONE, we will already be involved in War with Iran.
No one will even bother to prevent the involvement because the choice will not be up to our SENATE.
Israel will have attacked Iran and we will be obligated to assist our ally.
The former goose that laid the golden Eggs will be dead or on his way to meet Allah, there will be no longer need for him, because thewar with Iraq will insure the oil profits coming in from the Iran War and further escaltion of the Afganistan involvement.
McCain's statements indeed are bold, but they have the deck stacked and are jerking the chain of every single American.
"Initially saying that he would not "telegraph" the specifics, McCain declared, "Look, I know the area, I've been there, I know wars, I know how to win wars, and I know how to improve our capabilities so that we will capture Osama bin Laden -- or put it this way, bring him to justice... We will do it, I know how to do it."
"We have various options. The Nuremberg Trials are certainly an example of the kind of tribunal that we could move forward with. I don't think we'd have any difficulty in devising an international -- internationally supported mechanism that would mete out justice. There's no problem there."
What I state in this blog is what my grandpa Dine' Warrior asserts to be manifest to him by our ancestors spirits, as he goes back and forth in comunion between the Spirits of the dead while in his unconcious sleep state.
I believe my grandpa Dine'. He is serious about what he says, we do not take this with a grain of salt. Our troops are only pawns. It is disgusting.

Was it not the same thing that the supporters of the other entire candidate's would attack Hillary with, They would complain she was only going through the motions because she had the fix in the palm of her hand.
I have read these comments in the past posts going back to the early months of the primaries.
During the kickoff of the candidates presidential campaigns
in the SAN DIEGO CONVENTION CENTER, WHICH I ATTENDED WITH GRANDPA AND MET A GREAT NUMBER OF PEOPLE OF WHO MANY ARE ON THIS SITE;
There were many comments made by the local papers and radio in the county and there are many comments made in the posts on this site relating to the following:
Self declared Queen Hillary R. Clinton had arrived to the convention in San Diego Convention Center opening in may of 2007 as follows:
"The @#$% Hillary Clinton came in with an entourage superior to that of any real Royalty from Europe, She is only going through the motions, while her subjects bend their knees in adoration." She is a this, she is a that, she is a whatever"
So when I see something like the posed question, it seems to me like I heard that and read that in many places before, both from TV media, radio, and pundits, politico sites, and even here on PB.
I encourage new people on this site to read the old posts, there are many, just a little over 20,000 posts in all and adding a minimum of 100 per 24 hour session.
What I see is that no one expected for the black in the race to sneak in from behind on the inside rail.
I use the term in relation to a race of quarter horses and thoroughbreds. I use it not in a racially derogatory manner. Reason for clarifying is because many take all offensively as racial attack, when metaphors are utilized.
It is sad to have to add clarifications to all comments on the race about race. My spelling is atrocious so excuse my spelling not the typos. Typos are actually spelling errors that few of us like to admit to.
Peace to all here. The president will be the one chosen by the will of Our Almighty common creator Father. I settle for the will of God.

All over South America Multinational Corporations are causing the demise of entire tribes of nature loving people.
They are dying from commom diseases from the white man and their jungles in the Lacandonian regions , the Rain Forests are being destroyed.
Please if you have a portfolio like most Republicans have with this pack of murderers, do not invest in these corporations, Check your portfolio and make sure your hard earned investment is not contibuting to further Genocide of our Native brothers and sisters in the South American regions. One life is worth more than all the money in the world. I am sure the Great Spirit Grandfather will bless you with profits many times over in other investments not related to the pack of animals destroying innocent lives, by exploiting Nature's resources in the Rain Forests.

Being that there have been those that have gone out of their way to bring up reparations for black people only and highly supported by those that believe the blacks are the only entitled, since the Legal Precedent was set by paying reparations to the Japaneses Americans, I want to change the subject to english only.
Being a Native American youth I love to go with my family to eat at the Buffets in the casino. I am only allowed to walk through where there are adults actively gambling at the slots on the way to the buffet.
On several occaions I come across Native Americans that speak Native American language and greet them in the language of my heart soul and forfathers.
I have had impetuos people come up to our table and yell at me demanding I speak english only, because it is the law of the land.
In order to be respectful I tactfully and very respectfully remind them, I do not demand you speak the language of the law of my land, because you are at a casino in the middle of a sovering indian Nation.
Yet even so I have had problems with very imprtuos individuals having to ask security to step in and ask them to be more respectful or they will have to leave the premises.
It is sad that this situation has had to come to pass. Usually they turn out to be individuals that got drunk after having lost all the pay check that was supposed to go to feed their family and not their gambling vice.
This annscdote I make known here is because it is a true story that has happened not only to me, but to many other of my Native American Brother's and Sisters on Native land, and in the Casinos.

I personally would not consider endorsement of any candidate of the party I choose to support. In the first place Not being able to vote would be setting myself up for the inevitable trap of being forced to lose time with defending myself from petty attacks coming from staunch over zealous supporters of the candidate whom would argue I was being a traitor for criicizing the wrong stances taken by the candidate, or being called a troll and racist. I am tired of that which is so proliferate here, as many democrats are.
It is said that it is better to contribute to fortifying the party than to bring up points which will cause further division. I am glad I can not vote now. That will be a bridge I will have to cross when I become of age.
Meanwhile my time is better spent building the party than to bring it down by outright criticism of our candidates faults. No one is perfect. However a democrat in power is much better than a republican. Again it is only IMO.
There is much I can do as a democratic youth for the Democratic Party. I invite all the youths here to build on the party.

It is not my intention to offend, I have a bad habit of being rather crude when talking about historical truths. Commitment to our culture and pride as to respect to our people we come from.
As my Grandpa Dine' Warrior and all the family members whom have served in our homelands defence, be it hand in hand with the whiteman or fighting battles against the whiteman, my blood line was there.
When our people won a battle against the whiteman it was a massacre, when our people lost a battle it was highly promoted with honors as were all the battles waged by Custer against mostly women old men and children..
I am a Dine' and Am obligated to do what I must, regardless of my hate for war.The Draft will be brought back. I will have to put my aspirations on hold to become a public servant. I am obligated to honor my forefather's, ancestors, and my elders by volunteering before I am drafted. Should it occur prior to my 17th birthday.
I am sure the Great Spirit Grandfather will bring me back in one peace to pursue my ambitions. My grandpa Dine' had turned 18 years of age one day earlier when he enlisted.
I abhore war as my grandpa Dine' Warrior, but my obligation to my people and my homeland come first.
I am a Dine' and must do what I must.
I know the Great Spirit will not hold this against me. Many talk about how far back their family members have served the homeland. I want to share the following. Jose Tisnado and Juan Tisnado were Dine' They are my ancestors whom were forced to serve under the Spanish military having been forced to raising in spanish mission school's.
The Spanish would raid our people's villages, slaughter our braves Rape our women take the young for their service as slave's for the most part. Very little changed when the insurgent's against the Britt's took control, but things are gradually improving. I cry tears of blood when I reflect on the past history. I know that all injustice will be done away with at some point. All that has a begining in the continual forward movement of the cycle of life comes to an end, for all people, no matter what the background is.
In the eyes of the spanish while dehumanised by them our people were natural born savage warriors and could better serve them as cannon fodder. It is sad. I wish I knew what their true Dine' names were, but the forced christian names upon them did not change their heart nor what they were. There were many other men at the Presidio of Tubac. A few were Apache caught up in the same canoe as my ancestors. But only these two are my family through my Maternal Grandpa Dine' Warrior. I am proud to say I decend from the SON'S OF THE REVOLUTION. I am highly proud and being the month of celebrating the independence of our Home land from the Britt's I make this public. I know there are many others here whom can claim the distinction of decending from Son's Of The Revolution, I would like to hear from you. Many blessings I bid you all when I pray. Maybe someday all injustice will be no more against anyone in our homeland's borders, whether here illegally or as new immigrants that came through the big GATE. No human being is illegal.

ARIZONA PATRIOTS OF THE TUCSON PRESIDIO
The Tucson Presidio was the only one in present-day Arizona during Spain's 1779-1783 War with England. There was also a Pima Company in the last year of the war. Several accounts of those present during that period have been found. The number of soldiers assigned to the Tucson Presidio ranged from 60 to 70. The names of those identified are shown below. There were other patriots assigned to the Yuma settlements which were abolished by the Yumas 17-19 Jul 1781. Still others helped in the Expeditions against the Yumas. The soldiers of the Tucson Presidio sometimes joined soldiers from California, Sonora, New Mexico, and Nuevo Vizcaya in various expeditions affecting Arizona.
