The story below was pasted from an e-mail. I have not a clue as to whether or not the story is true – or not true.
However it is illustrative of my view that Senator Hillary Clinton will say whatever it takes to win the presidency…
If anyone has a source as to whether or not the story is true, please pass that information along. Thanks.
Two weeks ago in up state
invited to address a major gathering of the American Indian Nation.
She spoke for almost an hour on her future plans for increasing every Native American's present standard of living, should she one day become the first female President.
She referred to her career as a New York Senator, how she had signed "YES" for every Indian issue that came to her desk for approval. Although the Senator was vague on the details of her plan, she seemed most enthusiastic about her future ideas for helping her "red sisters and brothers."
At the conclusion of her speech, the Tribes presented the Senator with a plaque inscribed with her new Indian name - Walking Eagle.
The proud Senator then departed in her motorcade, waving to the crowds. A news reporter later inquired of the group of chiefs of how they had come to select the new name given to the Senator.
They explained that Walking Eagle is the name given to a bird so full of (crap) it can no longer fly.

ReplyDeleteThis story is False. It has been used to "discredit" several political candidates including Kerry, Sen Clinton, and the current Pres Bush. Go to the above mentioned link to learn more. It is pure fiction. There has never been a tour, speech, or plaque as mentioned in this wild story.
