UPS and FedEx have already folded like cheap cameras. They will not accommodate.

I wonder if the Senecas could manage to create a start-up trucking service. I’d love to see them be able to tell Obama to shove his stupid USPS.

So, Obama’s gunna have to actually INTO the store & get his lung tanners, now?

[Moonman62]

This is probably going to hurt the USPS more than anybody.

FedEx operates out of our Post Offices now. They aren’t going to bite the hand that feeds them.

Interstate commerce strikes again, as well as the nanny state.

Indian Reservations aren't another State.

The Senecas got Bidened.

[SouthTexas]

The transfer across state lines.

“In response, Seneca Nation President Barry E. Snyder Sr. accused the president of betraying the very Indian nations he wooed during his 2008 campaign and spoke to last fall. “

Yeah, just like everyone else he wooed... SUCKERS!!!

[Tarpon]

Didn’t the progressives do a similar thing with prohibition? That worked out well.

Often on my way to work I’m behind an SUV with a sticker that reads: “Sute you can trust the government. Just ask a Native American”

[j.argese]

and to those who were "wooed" by the imposter:

Scalp him.

"The president of the United States invited Native American leaders to Washington, D.C., in November and looked us in the eye as a sign of good faith in his pledge to protect federal treaties," Snyder said. "Now, four months later, he has betrayed that promise."

And you believed him after all his other lies?

[righttackle44]

Sure, go ahead, tribal governments. Support any Democrat you want. They've been treating you the same way for over 200 years, and you keep coming back for more. Don't any of your have a brain in your heads?

[a fool in paradise]

As a Native American about how Open Borders works.

[Forgiven_Sinner]

I was a little frustrated reading this, thinking, “How can a business get around this legally?” Then it came clearly to me: use FedEx or UPS! Neither one of them is banned from transporting cigarettes.

Another useless law.

[LadyBuzz]

UPS & Fedex stopped shipping over 2 years ago...

just saying - usps was the last to BUCKLE

[Drango]

FedEx and UPS stopped shipping cigarettes a year or two ago.

...Seneca Nation President Barry E. Snyder Sr...

I'm impressed. I think he is the first American Indian leader I have ever seen written about who goes by an entirely "Europeanized" name.

Most of them I've seen in the past have names like: Chief Robert 'Bob' White Eagle or Running-Bear Smith or some other "combo" name.

So now the Obamessiah will be sending Gibbs down to the 7-11 on 14th Street to get his ‘cigs’ for him instead of having them delivered by a postal employee?

And you all said EVERYTHING he does is designed to increase the size of the federal government.

Sounds to me like SOMEONE owes “Dear Leader” an apology!
