King John has spoken - There shalt be no Native-American team mascots in Oregon! Thus saith King Kitzhaber while vetoing a bill passed by the Legislature. To which a spokeswoman for the for the Cow Creek Band of the Umpqua Tribe replied that the tribe questioned the need for solutions to problems that don't exist. What!!! The Great and All Powerful has spoken! Sorry, but I am with the tribes on this one. Incidentally, all the tribes in Oregon unanimously supported this bill.
