More from Michelle
More from the noble Mashpee “tribe”
Tuesday, July 8, 2008
To be fair, at this point there is only slight indication that any Mashpees were involved but this kind of thing sure does follow them around, doesn’t it?
Man stabbed at Mashpee Wampanoag meeting
A man is in the hospital after he was stabbed early Sunday morning at the annual Mashpee Wampanoag tribal gathering, Mashpee Police said.
Narragansett tribe member stabbed at Cape powwow
A 19-year-old Narragansett tribal member is in stable condition at Cape Cod Hospital after being stabbed while trying to break up a fight at a Mashpee Wampanoag powwow last weekend, according to his mother.
Officers were met by hostility when they arrived and have gotten little cooperation from the 25 to 30 people who were at the scene, (Mashpee Police Chief Rodney) Collins said.
“Until some of the so-called witnesses step up and assist in our investigation, we’re being obstructed in making an arrest,” he said.
The local police have authority on tribal land there, which has been deeded to the Mashpee Wampanoags but has not been placed in trust, Collins said.
Tribe member stabbed at powwow
Collins said that as best they can determine at this point in their investigation is that there was “tension” between a Narragansett tribal member and a Wampanoag.
Narragansett Tribe sources said they had concerns about a possible “cover-up” by Mashpee Wampanoags.
“This was like an attempted murder and nothing’s been done,” a source close to the family said Tuesday morning.
…and from the Irony Department.
FREETOWN — A pole with the words “May peace prevail on Earth” in Wampanoag, Portuguese, Creole and English was dedicated in Memorial Park Sunday.
The real race…

Trendydouchebag is a great middle name, too!
Sunday, June 29, 2008
Emily Nordling has never met a Muslim, at least not to her knowledge. But this spring, Ms. Nordling, a 19-year-old student from Fort Thomas, Ky., gave herself a new middle name on Facebook.com, mimicking her boyfriend and shocking her father.
“Emily Hussein Nordling,” her entry now reads.
Another Hopey flipflop in 3…2…1

When given a choice about how government should address the numerous economic difficulties facing today’s consumer, Americans overwhelmingly — by 84% to 13% — prefer that the government focus on improving overall economic conditions and the jobs situation in the United States as opposed to taking steps to distribute wealth more evenly among Americans.
Barnstable Probate and Family Court rolls the dice.

BARNSTABLE — Mashpee Wampanoag Tribal Council chairman Shawn Hendricks is no longer prohibited from seeing his estranged wife and children after a probate court judge vacated a June 12 restraining order.
Hendricks’ clean criminal history was cited as the reason for yesterday’s decision.
Apparently the steroid use, fits of rage towards his wife, his family history, and association with the lying rapist Glenn Marshall weren’t enough to keep the restraining order.

We have met the enema and he is us.
Friday, June 20, 2008
NOTE: Here I thought I was being so clever with my funny headline. Donald Luskin beat me to it.
Whence came the 800-pound enema?
MOSCOW - A monument to the enema, a procedure many people would rather not think about, has been unveiled at a spa in the southern Russian city of Zheleznovodsk.
The bronze syringe bulb, which weighs 800 pounds (363 kilograms) and is held by three angels, was unveiled at the Mashuk-Akva Term spa, the spa’s director said Thursday.
“There is no kitsch or obscenity, it is a successful work of art,” Alexander Kharchenko told The Associated Press. “An enema is almost a symbol of our region.”
A fountain would have been more appropriate…and interactive.
At least someone likes him.

I might make this a regular feature.
Energy Guzzled by Al Gore’s Home in Past Year Could Power 232 U.S. Homes for a Month
Gore’s personal electricity consumption up 10%, despite “energy-efficient” home renovations
His mouthpieces are claiming that the increase is in “green” electricity so the carbon nets zero.
In his defense (did I just say that?), Gore’s house is halfway between my brother’s house and my parents’ house. I have never seen so much construction activity on a residential project. That has to account for some of this usage…but not 231 extra houses worth.
Here’s a shocker!
