Reuters reports that today the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected a request for reconsideration of a February ruling allowing scientists to examine the 9000-year-old remains of the so-called "Kennewick Man," and it did so justly and rightly. American Indian groups oppose the examination on religious grounds and requested the remains, found by some ne'er-do-well teenage excavators near the banks of Washington's Kennewick River, be reburied according to their heathen custom.

Once again, the American justice system has done the right thing. But a question should remain in the minds of all red-blooded and white-skinned patiots: why would these white-blooded and red-skinned so-called "Indians" object to the examination of a 9000-old-old bag of bones? If the Kennewick Man were so important to their people, why leave it laying on the banks of a river where any drug-addled teenager with time on his hands and some modest excavation equipment could find it?

The answer is simple: These Indians have something to hide, and they're hiding it their supposedly culturally important sacred sites and graves. Their real concern with the Kennewick Man, the ones they only whisper in their most inscrutable pops and clicks, is that scientists will finally be able to prove beyond question that the so-called American Indian is descended from extraterrestrials.
