At least they are using the money for its intended use. It should be considered a good example for others.

Its amazing that the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma will receive these funds when they have members sitting on governing boards that where fired for failing drug test. In order to receive any type of benefit from the tribe, you have to related to the governing board. Rest of us, have to suffer while others get priority treatment. There are fake CDIB membership cards givin out and you don't even have to prove your ndn. These was uncovered by an audit team but they were quickly fired about their return to Oklahoma. The Government needs to check into this and stop the hand outs to this tribe until a thorough investigation has been done

I have yet to understand why any gambling casino needs stimulus funds. Native Americans, homeless, mental patients, uninsured people need help--not gambling joints that are by their very nature corrupt.

Daily Horoscope for December 26

Scorpio

Something that you've always taken for granted or believed implicitly could have a big question mark hanging over it during the next few weeks. The more entrenched your views are about this, the more difficult it will be to accept that perhaps it's time for a change of opinion or, at the very least, a revaluation of what you think. Mercury turns retro in your house of communications, so do your best to be open-minded now.
