Column: It's not Indians, but Indians with money
Friday, September 26, 2003

"How can [actor Arnold] Schwarzenegger demonize Indians who own casinos as ``special interests,'' while taking $8.5 million in contributions from businesses (like Central Valley growers) that he says aren't special interests?

I suspect it's not just the money. It's Indians with money that seem to bother us.

There aren't many times in modern history when Indians have had the scales tipped at all in their favor. Given history, don't they know they're supposed to be grateful?"
