On a recent trip to the U.S.A. Prime Minister Kevin Rudd was invited to
address a major gathering of the American Indian Nations in Kitimat,
B.C. due to his experiences in handling the Australian Indigineous situation
in Australia
He spoke for almost an hour on his ideas for increasing every First Nation's
present standard of living.
At the conclusion of his speech, the tribes presented the Prime Minister
with a plaque inscribed with his new Indian name - Walking Eagle.
The proud Rudd then departed with his entourage, waving to the crowd as he
left.
A news reporter later asked the chiefs how they came to select the new name
given to Rudd.
They explained that Walking Eagle is the name given to a bird so full of
sh*t, it can no longer fly.
