Trump Brings Back ‘Pocahontas’ Slur Of Elizabeth Warren At Ceremony For Native American Veterans

[VanceMack]

Yeah, she rode the easy train from birth....just like Trump.


"Warren was born on June 22, 1949, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, as the fourth child of middle class parents Pauline (née Reed, 1912–1995) and Donald Jones Herring (1911–1997 ). Warren has described her family as teetering "on the ragged edge of the middle class" and "kind of hanging on at the edges by our fingernails". She had three young brothers and was raised as a Methodist.

Warren lived in Norman until she was 11 years old, when the family moved to Oklahoma City. When she was 12, her father, a salesman at Montgomery Ward, had a heart attack—which led to many medical bills, as well as a pay cut because he could not do his previous work. Eventually, this led to the repossession their car from failure to make loan payments.

To help the family finances, her mother found work in the catalog order department at Sears.
When she was 13, Warren started waiting tables at her aunt's restaurant.

Warren became a star member of the debate team at Northwest Classen High School and won the title of "Oklahoma's top high school debater" while competing with debate teams from high schools throughout the state. She also won a debate scholarship to George Washington University at the age of 16. She initially aspired to be a teacher, but she left GWU after two years to marry her high school sweetheart, Jim Warren.

Warren and her husband moved to Houston, where he was employed by IBM, which was a subcontractor to NASA. She enrolled in the University of Houston and graduated in 1970 with a bachelor of science degree in speech pathology and audiology. For a year, she taught children with disabilities who were enrolled in a public school. Her qualifications were based on an "emergency certificate", because she had not taken the education courses that were required for a regular teaching certificate.

The Warrens moved to New Jersey when Jim received a job transfer. She soon became pregnant and decided to remain at home to care for their child. After their daughter turned two, Warren enrolled at the Rutgers University, Newark School of Law. She worked as a summer associate at Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft. Shortly before graduating in 1976, Warren became pregnant with their second child. After she received her J.D. and passed the bar examination, she decided to perform legal services from home. She wrote wills and did real estate closings."

Which state body granted her the title of 'Oklahomas Top High School Debater'?

 

[VanceMack]

No I'm not saying any of that. I was using your post as a launching pad for another hilarious E. Warren Indian joke.

How?

Thats a helluvan answer.

 

[Port & Starboard]

You do realize the name is used to highlight that Elizabeth Warren is the one that exploited the Native People, right? She used it to help gain her position? It's not derogatory against the actual historical figure anymore than calling someone that is a dumbass "Einstein" is antisemitic.

Please stop using logic. :lol:

You forgot to mention that she lived in a log cabin and split fence rails...when she wasn't busy studying for her law exams only by the light of the fireplace! :roll:

Oh please, nothing about Warren's early life is that much different than most okies of her generation, and certainly less difficult than that of my own wife (a teacher) and her Oklahoma upbringing (her father was an old field worker who migrated from job to job, settling in new towns and states where work was to be found, and he died in his late 40s).

However, unlike my wife Warren lucked out by marrying her high school boyfriend who became an IBM/NASA engineer who funded her legal education - after which she divorced him and married a law professor.

Rather than practice serious law, she also went after the ivory tower and its perks (like her new hubby). She did well, although oddly unorthodox. Her pivotal career break was in 1987, when Warren waged debate with another young bankruptcy specialist named Douglas Baird. The debate was published in the University of Chicago Law Review, a top-tier journal that put Warren’s radical populist politics in front of the biggest audience she’d ever had, and established her on the radar.

Exactly why Harvard would hire her in 1995, though, is not entirely clear. She was the only graduate from a public university given a position at Harvard, and while she had a respectable (if narrow) corpus of articles she was also unorthodox - using law as an ideological tool for her far left politics. Eventually she would become among the four most cited bankruptcy academics (between 2005-2007) but her elevation in 1995 to Harvard was curious.

In any event, by the time she ran for office she was no longer even in the top ten.

On the other hand, it also came out that while she was an activist, she had:

1) Represented Large Utility helping them Liquidate Rural Electric Cooperative
2) Represented Dow Chemical at time it was fighting breast implant claims
3) Represented Travelers Insurance In Asbestos Litigation

I'm afraid Ms. Warren is not as impressive as you think.

The worst part really was the combination of the racist comment and holding the ceremony in front of a picture of the Indian killer, aka Andrew Jackson. Totally disrespectful towards these brave men and Trump and his allies should be ashamed.

Really nice post.

You might have my answer....is Trump getting into her head, and if so what exactly in how he mocks her does it?

Really really small potatoes with as bad as America is now, but thanks so much for the concern.

You love using that right win rag of fever swampdom to cut her down in every breath, don't you, Trumpadoodle? Your silver-spooned messiah who couldn't pen a single page of an academic essay if his life depended on it.

(for readers who don't know: "elizabethwarrenwiki.org" is LegalInsurrection -- a RWNJ blogger website, and a fanatic who has made it his life's work to attack Warren)

Her entrance into Academia @ George Washington University was awarded to her on her merits -- and she received a debate scholarship to attend. Then went on to achieve accomplishments few can, and something you will never reach.

Does it make you feel like a big man to punch someone who has struggled from the bottom to get where she is, a woman of great character that has now become a household name?

Yeah, I'll bet it does. Have a cheeto and type more words on your orange keyboard from your basement about how much better you are than her.

I have no way of knowing whether I am (or anyone is) "better" than her. (Whatever that means.) But I know she's a liar, and that counts.

One should always treasure good research, especially that of William Jacobson, Harvard Law School graduate and Professor and Director of the Securities Law Clinic at Cornell's Law School. As a successful litigator in investment and the securities industry, "including many high profile cases reported in leading newspapers and magazines." and someone who has "argued cases in numerous federal and state courts, including the Courts of Appeal for the First, Fifth and Sixth Circuits, and the Rhode Island Supreme Court." his willingness to track the dubious doings of Ms. Warren has been most valuable.

And yes, Professor Jacobson is also is the founder and publisher of Legal Insurrection, a very popular politics and law website. "He is frequently quoted in the media on political and legal topics, has authored many Op-Eds in major publications, and appears on television and radio to discuss politics and the law."

And no, he has not made it his "life's work" - here is a summary of the life's work that vexes you so;

As no one said that as a high schooler she used an Indian identity to get into George Washington; who gives a hoot over a trivial debate scholarship to a non-Ivy league school? Nor, by the way, is it even "an entrance" to academia as a profession.

In regards to you rhetorical question, I don't mind punching elites of any sort. But your fuming indignity over a common man, such as myself, questioning the character of your "heroic" formerly tenured and very well heeled, double income, couple whose "life experience" has been almost entirely sponging off academia - well, it says more about you than anything else.

Apparently Trump is not the only one to attract cult of personality types, no?

He's a right wing nut job. Spin it anyway you like.

This ^

says an awful lot about you. That people working hard to get where they are are "sponging."

You disgust me.

Good day.

 

[Absentglare]

The fact that she's a liar is relevant.

That's not a fact, it's not even a justified opinion.

 

[Jack Hays]

That's not a fact, it's not even a justified opinion.

We'll have to disagree. I think the case is conclusive.

 

[maxparrish]

Perhaps you should alert Cornell that they have employed, as a securities law director and professor, a "right wing nut job". It is shocking that a left of center law school (as most are) can't see the crazy man who dwells in their midst. Shocking I say!

Working hard to become a sponge does not make one worthy of admiration, with or without the hard work of pretending to be an indian. That they (particularly Warren) have spent a lifetime of doing useless (if not intellectually dishonest) ivory tower nonsense for lavish pay and tenure does not impress. You see, "Hard work" never deserves admiration merely because it is hard. Most of the histories criminals, frauds, and thugs were "hard workers" (e.g. Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, Karl Marx, etc.).

What is to be admired are those who work hard to improve their own well-being by with honorable, moral, and wealth building activities. The the artists, the scientists, the inventors, the small businessman as well as captains of industry that stood against the government worshipping elites and masses, against the envious manipulators, and against the special pleaders and looters (legal redistributionists) - those are the ones to be admired.

I admire those who create, those of become the men (and women) who make things, who transform the material world from its raw state into something of value.
I don't admire those whose work is to destroy the work of those creators, in order to be fed or feed their ego. Elizabeth Warren is one of them.

She hates REAL accomplishment, her mockery of those who build and create as "well good for you" and "you didn't do it on your own". She preaches her brand of slavery in the guise of altruism, demanding that all the real hard working wealth producers 'bend the knee' to her vision; to serve others as slaves (even as she makes a tidy profit on foreclosures and represents corporations). She relishes dependence as a virtue, wallowing in the philosophy of victimhood from her well heeled ivory tower.

And like most of her ilk, of she aspires to be on one of the 'slave-masters' enforcing her 'altruism' on others. Ms. Warren has no interest in personal altruism; she is not known for her generous pro-bono work (if she has any at all), nor work work on behalf of non-profit charities, nor in volunteering for soup kitchens or literacy program. She has devoted her life on the academic gravy train of excoriating those who have something she does not, NOT living the faux philosophy she expouses.

If you are a small businessman, doing honorable work for profit, without being a crony capitalist or special pleader YOU SHOULD be proud of you hard work. You should profit from risk, and you have nothing to be ashamed of.

But if you are Elizabeth Warren, your a hypocritical disgrace.

Well, which are you?
