The Whisper
The Indian Gossip Column

ANYTOWN OK
The Whisper 6/14/2005

David Yeagley is a man on a mission, but it seems he is not what he claims
to be: a Comanche Indian.

Yeagley, who longs to be the voice of conservative thought in Indian
Country, has railed against those he accuses of being, dare we say it: a
liberal. An Indian liberal for David's purposes is someone who supports,
well, being Indian. Quite frankly, the Whisper has never quite figured out
what Yeagley is for, but he is clear as mud what he is against. He seems to
be against anyone more famous or liked than him. Of course that covers just
about everyone, so he is fond of attacking every respectable Indian leader
and policy of self-determination.

Yeagley seems to hate Indianness, if that's possible. He is called upon to
give an alternative view to Indian positions. He has appeared on C-Span and
given speeches at the National Press Club. The far-right wing of the
lunatic fringe embraces him. He makes most respectable conservatives
embarrassed that he sides with them. More than anything else he angers many
Native Americans with these hateful tomes against Indian people. He does so
by also noting he is Comanche Indian. He even claims lineage to famed
Comanche Bad Eagle.

According to sources at the Comanche headquarters, David is not Comanche.
His adopted mother is Comanche.

Did David know this when he applied to become a Kellogg Fellow in their
Indian Leadership program? Does he owe them some money?

David released a CD titled "Awakening," of so-called Indian flute music. Is
he in violation beyond basic ethics, or of federal laws regarding the
marketing of arts and crafts by non-Indians? He says he is an enrolled
member of the Comanche Nation. It’s been said that the mark of a great con
is detail. David has provided his family tree as proof of his Comanche
blood. The trouble is, it’s not HIS blood he is listing.

David has also in recent years supported the continued use of Indians as
mascots. At first the Whisper just thought he was just misguided and wrong,
could it be he was a ringer for the right.

Several columnists recently have presented themselves as independent
thinkers to advance conservative positions. Later it was revealed they took
money from the Bush administration.

Is David one of these folks?

With the acquittal of Michael Jackson, we are reminded of another person
who has altered his face to look like something else. Yeagley has gone
through several cosmetic changes to appear more Indian.

Now we understand why he hates Indians: He's not one, and that makes the
world a little saner. Later.

Interesting find. I wonder why the left hates him so? I'd never heard of him until this. Hmmm.

What you posted about him comes from a GOSSIP COLUMN.

I haven't found any other source backing up the allegations.

Robert Schmidt runs a rumor mill...there on Yahoo.

And the NativeTimes is full of very leftist/socialist viewpoints. I know...I actually read it. Of course they would have a ax to grind with David Yeagley. While I cannot attest to David Yeagley's blood line....I will take him at his word...until I know otherwise.

Most Indians I know have bought into the Democrat bilge. Sad to say even many of my relatives.....

We think D.C. politics is ruthless/dishonest....you ain't seen an election until you've seen an Indian election. Ha!!
