Roger tells it like it is

In typical unison, the Progressive voices are chiming in to criticize Roger Rodoni's criticism of John Wooley, Board of Supes help-mate for Progressive's political agenda. This time it was Bob Ornelas' turn to bash Humboldt County's most savvy Supervisor with lot's of slanderous crap leveled at Rodoni like "racism, thuggery, and sexual prejudice", oh, let's not forget, "arrogance, pomposity, and platitudes", and then add "stingy, self-righteous, neo-conservatism," and lastly, Bob's kindest remark showing his concern for Roger's health with suggesting he needs an enema. Now we all know Progressives are always the most understanding members of the community, like Richard Salzman, so it's good of Bob to point us in the right, oops, Left, direction re Mr. Rodoni. We all need model citizens in office like Paul Gallegos, you know ones without a wiff of scandal about them, like this big uproar with the Leonard Bowman-led Bear River donation to his campaign which paid off for Bowman about 5 weeks later in the amazingly reduced sentences given Bowman's son. As for Roger's very right criticism of Native American tribes joining HCAOG due to their sovereignty status as nations in themselves, Hoopa and all tribes should thank Roger for looking out for their sovereignty rights, some of which would be given up in order to join HCAOG. Anytime in the future when issues of tribal sovereignty come up in court for Hoopa or any other local tribe, the courts would look closely at any indications that Hoopa had discarded its sovereignty status in favor of joining as an equal partner in Humboldt County government. If tribes wish to keep and strengthen their tribal sovereignty status they should be very careful not to do things that work against that position such as joining HCAOG as just another community organization.
