Government will work with tribes, Obama tells leaders

"They actually apologized for the neglect we've received in the past from past administrations," said Sen. Albert Kookesh, D-Angoon, who attended the meeting as co-chairman of the Alaska Federation of Natives. "And they promised us in front of God and everybody else that they would be there for us to make sure that things work out a lot better for us."

Can you point out the tribal leaders invites from & debates with the Bush administration? I'd quite like to see those, thanks. Even though there aren't any.

You seem to prefer isolationism & negativity to attempted inclusiveness & approachability. People like you are the reason kids continue to die daily in Helmand.

You are right. The conservatives left a much bigger mess than anyone could have concieved of. It will probably take him another year or too to fix their incompetence.

Sad you and Stui are reduced to "defending" Obama by simply saying Bush was worse.

Perhaps he was, but that is not the issue is it? The issue is the train wreck we have in the whitehouse NOW...

Plz stick to it.....

Okay, the recession is over, and Obama is responsible. He has now begun to fix relations with native peoples. This, also, is excellent.

Recessions end on their own, that is Econ 101. One "ended" under Regan WITHOUT him selling the country to China.....as has Obama with his astro-deficit...

What a laugh. Every expert in the world said that intervention was necessary. Perhaps your argument is with every reputable financial institution in the world.

You are right. I should not have said every.
Almost every. Unless you don't care to experience reality...

This is called a photo-op, and that's all it is.

Did Bush have any 'photo-ops' with these tribal leaders?

They've said themselves they had absolutely NO help from the Bush administration.

Perhaps you yourself know better, or would deny them the opportunity to sit down & present their concerns to the government of the country, an opportunity not extended to them, as they themselves point out, by the previous Republican admin.

They won't get any help from the Obama administration either, unless raised taxes is "help".

Interesting fact Stu, before KK moved to Alaska it was actually light all winter like the lower 48 and it was a balmy 70 degrees.
