“Indian Burn” or “Geronimo!”

It has been reported that the code-name “Geronimo” was used for the operation that killed Osama bin Laden, generating a backlash from offended Native Americans.  The operation’s name will retro-actively be changed, to The Kansas City Chiefs.

Now some Indian leaders are really on the warpath.  Time to circle the wagons.

Native Americans criticized the use of the name in association of an American enemy as a reinforcement of negative Indian stereotypes.  The U.S. government will address the issue Thursday in a conference, to you, know, extend the peace pipe.

Some Native American leaders replied, “Woo woo. woo woo!  Woo woo, woo woo!”

The Native American conference was scheduled after the government’s failed attempt to buy their silence with a basket of some very pretty beads.

Incidentally, Osama bin Laden’s code-name in the operation was Jackpot, which, of course, has offended Las Vegas casinos and their players.
