On Tuesday , the United States Department of Interior ( DOI ) announced that it would be declaring the term “ squaw ” to be derogatory , and would rename over 600 historical sites that feature the term …

Yet , what does squaw mean in indigenous language ?

In its historical origin the word squaw as current dictionaries correctly indicate :

” squaw ” comes from a language of the Algonquian family in which it meant ” woman “.

As reported by CNN , DOI Secretary Deb Haaland first wrote an order back in November declaring that the longtime term “ squaw ,” which often referred to female Native Americans , was racist and sexist …

Well of course !!! …

To this end, Haaland announced the creation of the Names Task Force, consisting of 13 member s, for the purpose of coming up with new names for the over 600 sites that included the term in their names …

And how much does that cost the American taxpayers ?!!! …

“ Words matter , particularly in our work to make our nation’s public lands and waters accessible and welcoming to people of all backgrounds ,” said Haaland in her press release. “ Throughout this process , broad engagement with Tribes , stakeholders and the general public will help us advance our goals of equity and inclusion.”

Haaland provided no evidence to suggest that the term “ squaw ” is considered offensive , as the name has been used frequently throughout American history. Examples of such historical sites with the word in their names include White Squaw Island in Maine and Squaw Hollow in Oregon. But the DOI has already taken additional steps to completely erase the word from existence ;

In official internal communications , the word “ squaw ” now appears as “sq_ _ _.”

The DOI on Tuesday posted a list of potential replacement names , and is asking for public comment to contribute further possible names. The comment period will be open through the end of April.

What a load of bullshit !!! …

Oh how the mighty have fallen. It used to be every Friday I’d have my nose in a glass and three sheets to the wind. How I mourn the passing of the Good Ol’ Days ! …

Now I get up in the middle of the night to drain myself. When I get back to bed … And I’ve just fallen asleep … Macey The Dawg has to go. She’s an old geezer too and her back legs are shutting down. She’s developed a method of sliding down the stairs on her bum and it sounds like a drunk tumbling down the stairs. Then she goes to the downstairs crapper , drinks 14 gallons of water … And then barks to be let out ! …

After she goes out and comes back in , and I’m back in bed … The stupid old bitch barks at Mort and they have a bloody domestic dispute ! …

Beside me , the wife snores and farts …
