Coupe Deval and the guy who runs the Lotto are just standing there with their hands out--mark my words.
I agree with Mike on this and I'm sure everyone else does also. When all the corporations are in place that will do business with the casinos that are owned by the POLS or ah geez I mean the relatives of the POLS, yes thats better, then the casinos will fly through any permitting process.

Something I heard the other day was that the Wampanoag were the first tribe to welcome white people to this country and the 563 tribe to receive recognition from the FEDS. Why do you think that is? My guess is our reps in Washington have upheld threcognition for along time. It should have been the first tribe to be recognized.
