Hang on a minute, I'll just count up. One, two, many, lots. There, it's official, we have lots of Pagans/Christians/Jews/Muslims/Buddhists/Atheists/Agnostics on this thread.

What has this got to do with the problem of the oil industry conspiring, in the form of One Nation to fight against American Indian nations?

I believe we have a new law of internet message boards.

Godwin's Law II.

Given a thread on any topic, as the thread length grows the chance of someone comparing Bush to an ape approches zero.

You may have already run afoul of Case's Corallary II:
Any intentional comparison of Bush to an ape, made in order to end the thread, is ineffectual

The list of "One Nation United" founding members (from the website):
Oklahoma Independent Petroleum Association
Oklahoma Petroleum Marketers Association
Oklahoma Farm Bureau
Southern Oklahoma Water Alliance
Oklahoma Grocers Association
United Property Owners
There aren't many non-tribal "land-users" left out of their "nation". That kind of coalition can buy^H^H^H influence quite a few politicians.
