So Harvard did hire Warren because she said she was an Indiian.

Apparently some Harvard professors have been trying to give Elizabeth Warren cover by saying that her pretending to be an Indian wasn't a factor in her hiring.

And yet, here she was being touted as being Harvard's "first person of color" in a Fordham Law Review piece.


The story just keeps getting better.

Elizabeth Warren has pushed back hard on questions about a Harvard Crimson piece in 1996 that described her as Native American, saying she had no idea the school where she taught law was billing her that way and saying it never came up during her hiring a year earlier, which others have backed up.

But a 1997 Fordham Law Review piece described her as Harvard Law School's "first woman of color," based, according to the notes at the bottom of the story, on a "telephone interview with Michael Chmura, News Director, Harvard Law (Aug. 6, 1996)."

Now even the far Left rag Huffington Post has turned on her.


In her effort to pre-empt Donald Trump’s familiar refrain of “Pocahontas,” Warren only revealed that she is not up to the task of beating him. If the 2020 presidential campaign comes down to a name-calling contest, Trump will easily win re-election.

............................

The DNA test revealed that her Native American ancestry is as small as 1/1,024. And the stunt provoked the Cherokee Nation to release a blistering statement pointing out that “a DNA test is useless to determine tribal citizenship” and that “using a DNA test to lay claim to any connection to the Cherokee Nation or any tribal nation, even vaguely, is inappropriate and wrong … Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage.” Other Native American writers have similarly objected to the methodology and implicit message behind Warren’s announcement.

Playing in the place where Trump feels the most comfortable is a recipe for losing.
Warren’s misguided efforts to definitively address the controversy have now severely backfired. Her ambition has driven her to make an unforced error that is only exacerbated by its timing.

So a fake Indian got a job at a real college. I wonder if any real Indians got a job at Trump’s fake college. ;)

If you play your cards right, your side can have your very own Trump. Lies and all.

Hate to admit it to my friend Bob here, but dobieg makes a good point. However, dobieg, Bob is not actually fully on the other side just I am not fully on the other-other side. Bob thinks with his mind and not his voter registration card.

I though this kink of background scrutiny and innuendo just happened to Kavanaugh.

Do you think Warren will have a similar breakdown, start crying and claim her life has been ruined?

What a little bitch Kavy boy is.
 
The claim that Harvard did not hire her because of her claiming to be a Native American is her and the left trying to reverse the question as a diversion.

The question is NOT did Harvard hire her because she claimed she is a Native American. The question is did Warren falsely claim she is NA (as a lawyer knowing her 1/32rd belief does NOT qualify) because she thought that lie would give her an affirmative action hiring advantage - whether or not it actually did.

The question is NOT about what was the motives of Harvard. The issue is the motive of Elizabeth Warren. It doesn't matter what Harvard thought or did. It isn't about Harvard's ethics. It is about Warren's ethics.

Oh, I think that is the inevitable road we are going down. Honesty and integrity in the presidency is about to become, if not already, anachronistic.

I wish I could offend everyone so succinctly. That is gifted prose.

Reasoned point.

For myself, take Trump out of the GOP and I can't stand them. Especially, the Delay, Hastert, Bohner version.

So when she applied for Harvard were DNA tests available or did she have to rely on what her family history as was told to her.

When she applied did the signature have a line stating "to the best of my knowledge" or something similar?

She must just scare the **** out of the right for them to grasp so tightly to this itty bitty straw...
