Sweet Sioux

I just love it when the underdog comes up off the mat to swing hard just when everyone has counted him (or in this case her) out. According to Democracy Now, the Oglala Sioux tribe in South Dakota have agreed to let Planned Parenthood open an abortion clinic on tribal land, seriously sticking it to the state government who recently voted to ban abortion in the state. The Sioux lands are governed by tribal law and therefore are exempt from the law. I can't help but think that the Native Americans in South Dakota are taking great pleasure in driving a truck through this loophole. Posted by Picasa
