There were no smiles at the press conference about the Taunton Deal of Last Resort. Course it was not news, cause we told you about it almost two weeks ago.
What should have been a happy occasion about a wonderful future, was a 13 minute hoge poge of Cedric double speak about shoulda wooda coulda on 53 acres buildable for his dream Destination Resort Casino.
The Mayor and the few legislative officials there looked like they were at a funeral. They clearly did not want to be there. Not a smile according to an eyewitness who said the very short event offered no answers beyond being a pathetic spectacle.
Cedric with his goofy grin and Navajo jewelry is flanked by Bunny. You remember Bunny, their Chief who forgot he resigned three times. Clearly Bunny had no idea where he was as usual. And Aaron was trying to look important…licking his lips. Does anyone know what that’s about?
Worst of all the witness said was Cheryl Frye Cromwell running around taking pictures while her brother in law sat on the front row dressed up in some kind of Indian costume. He and his brother Cedric made it on to the roll in 2006.
Clearly trying to portray Wampanoag is a work in progress for the Tobey boys…Aaron included. No going to well.
No tribal members were there beyond a few council members. Yvonne was alllllllllthe way at the end, as far away as she could get. Yvonne’s got her parachute ready.
By the way, we gave Cedric too much credit…the Galleria is probably out of the question…foreclosure you see. The banks wants $120 m (ya, in Taunton).
Few more problems…$85 m for the license, and the state takes 25% off the top of the gross receipts. And of course the Governor makes Cedric sign away our sovereignty.
But you have to get by all those frowning White people to be a lot more enthusiastic….the Town Council, the lawmakers, the surrounding communities who, quite frankly would rather have someone White get the license….Someone they know they can trust, who will build a quality facility and generate money. No one even attempts to build a resort on 53 acres. The White casino may not be built in Taunton, but thier citizens can go to work in the surrounding community and have no worries. None of the headaches associated with Cedric and Imitation Indians.
Cedrics explanations for his trail of screw ups are just an example of his ineptness. He’s so not ready, we didn’t want to go back and review his stumbling across the state giving away money. It’s almost like each Mayor would call ahead to the next town to let them know numbskull was headed their way. Roxbury Community College is not U Mass okay? Roxbury Community College is no place to groom an Indian Leader, even one who’s not real.
Again, after recalculating..The total debt is at least $1.7 b. That’s a lot a herrin’!
Add the interest and the fact that you have no idea what they’re spending it on. You can’t even get a legitimate budget. And you’re balloting in a cardboard box !
Like we said. Our great grand kids will never see daylight .
. The nightmare continues.
