Stop us if you've heard this one: President Barack Obama wants to return the entire land mass of the United States of America to Native American tribes.
No, nevermind. That one's new.
The wild claim comes by way of the American Family Association (AFA), a conservative non-profit focused on anti-gay initiatives.
They were reacting to a Thursday announcement by President Obama, that the US would sign a non-binding United Nations declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples, which has been endorsed by 145 countries.

The declaration states that "indigenous peoples have the right to the lands, territories and resources which they have traditionally owned, occupied or otherwise used or acquired," and nations "shall give legal recognition and protection to these lands, territories and resources."
This means President Obama "wants Indian tribes to be our new overlords," according to Bryan Fischer, AFA's "director of issue analysis."
How does someone even get their mind to go there? LMAO!!!

By all rights, we SHOULD be giving this country (continent) back to the Native Americans. Does that mean it is going to happen? Of course not.
The AFA obviously missed the message Nancy Reagan worked so hard to teach us. They need to quit smoking crack.

They have the same mind-set as the people who came over here & stole this land from Native Americans in the first place. It's the Ike Turner Syndrome...they use and abuse people, then act like they're the victims. Just look at what the Native Americans made them do! And don't get me started on the Blacks! LOL!!
