Is It Important…...

It is important to everyone but the extreme far left that will protect no matter what just as they have Obama and Clinton, and Clinton.

 

She's a liberal. Dishonesty is expected by their base.

 

No, it is not important because she was oppressed as a woman and a victim of the war on women so she is not responsible for what she did. She would still be the first Native American president--Native Americans being the name for people who immigrated here from Siberia and Mongolia and brought their wars and religions and hatreds from there to here.

 

Republicans "lie", Democrats "misspeak".

 

Good point!

Think of the courage that it took for her to admit that some of her ancestors came from Mongolia or Siberia! She is only a woman.

 

CMG, you're gonna sprain your tongue badly, tucking it so far back into your cheek like that! :laugh:

 

Proof please.

 

Harvard no longer counts her as part of their diversity statistic.

"Between 1960 and 2000, the number of Americans claiming Indian ancestry on their census forms jumped by a factor of six. Neither birthrates nor counting methodologies can account for this explosive growth. Instead, the phenomenon arises in large part from the increasingly idealistic place Indians occupy in the popular imagination. Much of it is based on harmless sentiment mixed into a hash of unverifiable family legends and wishful thinking among folks who hang dreamcatchers from their rearview mirrors. But for a distinct subset, it’s all about personal profit. They’re professional imposters who have built entire careers by putting the sham into shaman."

Warren does point out the silliness of diversity in that we all trace our ancestry back to a thieving gardener and a drunken sea captain. However, she did get ahead in life by claiming something she really is not in any meaningful sense.

 

Does Mother Jones mean this "proof"?

yeah, that's what I thought ...
