EPA region [6] encompassing Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and 66Tribal Nations, recently summed up the Obama Administration’s policy toward the oil and gas industry – crucify them.

Here's another story on this
--- Quote ---Are there real troubles on tribal reservations in the U.S.? Yes. But there’s a very good argument that the problem is not lack of land, but a smothering and dispiriting mix of federal subsidies and regulatory intervention, including selective favors that enrich a few but do worse than nothing for the rest.
Rather than address that, the Obama administration has focused on providing a $1 billion settlement, announced last month, for claims dating back more than 100 years, or, as The Independent Sentinel described it, “Obama Buying Native American Votes.”
Whatever one’s view of that settlement, apparently it was not enough to satisfy the administration — which also called in reinforcements from the UN, in the form of inviting Anaya to “visit” his own native haunts, and provide a UN condemnation and prescription for the doings of America.

How about $1B in Wal-Mart gift cards ? They could buy all kinds of beads and cheap trinkets ... then maybe they'd shut the hell up for a while !
