Reminds me of what folks said about Obama four years ago. And what an inept fraud that jackeass has turned out to be.
Seems to me Warren is fake, a liar, and able to con the people.
I have a feeling many televisions would need cleaning from the mass spit take.Hey, how great would it be in the debate between Brown, and Warren to hear Brown after one of her TM pablum responses, like 'the rich only got that way through the expense of everyone else'...say, "Okay Pocahontis, what ever you say" :roll:
heh, heh...

Elizabeth Warren, the Massachusetts darling trying to unseat Sen. Scott Brown, is not the Native American she claimed to be. :roll:
Just one more phoney baloney chump politician. You can stick a fork in her now.
I said "in danger of losing." I'd call 1% in danger of losing. It's within the margin of error of most polls.
I just don't have the energy to do it again.
I don't really care if I've convinced you or not.Okay, you've convinced me. :lol:

White and wrong: On the reservation with Elizabeth Warren
We all know about “undocumented workers.” Now we have Elizabeth Warren, the undocumented Indian.
Funny thing, I think Ted Williams was one-fourth Mexican. He was white. Johnny Bench is one-eighth Indian. I always think of him as white. And then there’s Pochantas Warren, the blue-eyed, one-32nd Cherokee (or so we’re told) who went from the Southwest Conference to the Ivy League over the course of a decade in which she was claiming to be a “minority professor.”
But once she’d parlayed the racial-spoils racket all the way to a tenured position at Harvard Law, she decided to ... pass, as they used to say in the old South. Once she’d reached the pinnacle of her trade, she ditched the fake-Indian routine. Maybe White Eyes Warren saw the smoke signals and figured out that someone was going to call her out on her ancestry. She was right.
Still, all’s well that ends well. She has her $1.7 million wigwam in Cambridge. Greedy Wall Street lawyers slurp top-shelf firewater at her $1,000-a-head Manhattan fundraisers. Maybe someday she’ll even smokum peace pipe with Tim Geithner.

Schilling deserves to be insulted. He's an ass.
In the Warren situation it's obvious. She didn't have the goods to make it without preferred status so she pulled the "I'm a __________ percent native american" card.I am curious as to - at what point - Indians went from being a negative if they were in your family history to it being a cool postive . . . to the point of people making up percentile numbers like 1/32 - all to ignore the 31/32 white (or whatever)
And at what point did it just begin to numberize things - people don't do that with anything other than Native American 'blood' - all for some financial support from the government or something? I don't quite get the history that's at play here.

Actually, no she didn't. As TD pointed out she came from a tier 3 law school. That is the junior college of law, so you may go away now.She had more accomplishments by the time she was 30 then you would accumulate in four lifetimes. :lol:

TD, you know facts are dirty things to use in an argument.If those were based on affirmative action that is sort of like bragging some athlete has more gold medals than I do because he was a doper.
She's an asshole pure and simple. You know as well as I do Harvard doesn't hire professors who received their JD's from third rate law schools. How many of your law professors went to schools ranked below Tulane?

Rutgers is not a bad law school and she was law review, and she went on to teach at many of the best law schools in the country (she taught at the Rutgers School of Law–Newark (1977–78), the University of Houston Law Center (1978–83), the University of Michigan (visiting, 1985), and the University of Texas School of Law (1981–87). She also worked as a research associate at the University of Texas at Austin (1983–87). She joined the University of Pennsylvania Law School in 1987, where she became the William A Schnader Professor of Commercial Law in 1990. She joined Harvard Law School in 1992 as the Robert Braucher Visiting Professor of Commercial Law, and began a permanent position as the Leo Gottlieb Professor of Law in 1995), which is particularly impressive given her non-Ivy beginning.
Ah. My fault, I thought it was a lower school in the tier 3, did not remember your point correctly. Rutgers isn't a bad law school but as you've said doesn't rate one well to teach at the Ivy level.She went to Rutgers school of Law NEWARK
Its actually a SECOND tier law school
from Wiki
The Law School is ranked as a "Tier 2" school by the 2012 edition of U.S. News & World Report's "Best Grad Schools." Rutgers Law–Newark is ranked 82nd overall in the 2012 U.S. News Law rankings, tied with nine additional schools.[9] The Law School is ranked 54th in Super Lawyers' 2010 U.S. Law School Rankings.[10]
given how close it is to major league schools like Columbia, NYU and Fordham (Columbia, NYU being on most top ten lists, Fordham top 20) you wonder why she went to a lame school like this.
It appears she got some or most of the jobs based on affirmative action combined with her fraudulent claim of being Native American.
