[Republican Wildcat]

Sorry, I'm not going to play your little games anymore. You and I both know you are not being honest. Posting the same irrelevancies over and over again after they have been demonstrated to be so do not make them anymore relevant. Denying that I made a post addressing a point when you yourself replied to said post does not make for a powerful argument, either. That being understood, this is my last post on the thread. Good bye, and I hope that the next thread in which we have an encounter you try to debate rationally and honestly, with relevant facts and from a desire to have a discussion, not a personal grub match. I forgive you, and the slate is now wiped clean, so on another thread, let's both try to keep this more civil. Farewell.

Anymore? You've been fleeing the facts since day one.

Battin made a straightforward bid for the American Indian vote in California. After speaking to the crowd, Battin told Indian Country Today he feels Republicans are more in line philosophically with American Indians.

"The tribes basically want the same things that are core Republican values. They want limited government and they want to be able to have the opportunity to generate wealth. That is the essence of being a Republican," Battin said.

Battin added that he feels tribes fared better under Republican presidential administrations. To back up his claim, he cites Nixon’s re-recognition of several tribes, Reagan’s support of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act and the first President Bush’s signing of the Native American Graves and Repatriation Act.
