Cherokee women want to meet Elizabeth Warren on book tour

Cherokee women want to meet Elizabeth Warren on book tour. “To get Warren to understand why they are hurt and angry that she assumed, then discarded, Native American identity.” To paraphrase Dorothy Parker, Warren’s is not a book to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force.

  • In the South they have traditionally separated nn EY from good breeding. Obama's posse has the money, but no breeding.

  • I live in the heart of Cherokee country. Am part Cherokee. More than Cherokee Warren;). Everyone that Obamba has put in government is a slimey liar. He claims to be African American.

    He's half white and I believe the other half is Arab. I have done much research on him. I am convinced that's why all his birth certificate, records, etc. are hidden. And one thing we know, he's an effin liar, like all his serfs. (my spouse calls him the first half white president;). I agree.

  • Elizabeth Warren lying about her lineage to get a job at Harvard does not amaze me nearly as much as Democrat voters who insist upon voting for these dishonest phonies. Warren, Dick Blumenthal, Obama... what the hell is wrong with Democrats?

    • Socialism/Communism are mental diseases. When you convince people that they can have everything without working for it, you have created the Socialist/Communist mentality. It is tough to make lazy people have a feeling of personal responsibility when you spent a lifetime brainwashing them into believing that the rich owe them everything.

  • I have enough Comanche in me to get my kids classified as such, to be eligible for preferential treatment for college admission and scholarship money. My wife the democrat voter asked me to take care of the necessary paperwork to make it happen. A lively discussion ensued.

    I can imagine the admission board seeing my oldest girl who is already 5'11", green eyes and sandy blond hair claiming to be Native American. I guess we could pull it off if we tried to get her into Harvard or MIT, but it's not gonna work for a Texas university.

    • Oh it would probably fly at UT. THEY ARE SO DESPerate to show they don't discriminate, they will recruit anyone they can pass off as a minority. Of course, most of them fail out, but hey, that isn' t UT's fault!

      • My oldest has zero interest in attending UT! So proud of her for making that decision on her own. Looks like it might be A&M.

        • What is the difference between an Aggie and a carp?
          One is a bottom feeding scum sucker and the other is a fish.

          SRSLY, Maybe she ought to consider SMU or TECH

          • WHOOP? whoop? srsly? whoop?

            tsk.

            Quanah Parker's mother, Cynthia Ann Parker (born ca. 1827), was a member of the large Parker frontier family that settled in east Texas in the 1830s. She was captured in 1836 (at age nine) by Comanches during the raid of Fort Parker near present-day Groesbeck, Texas. Given the Native name Nadua (Someone Found*), she was adopted into the Nocona band of Comanches.[1] Assimilated into the Comanche, Cynthia Ann Parker later married the warrior Peta Nocona, (also known as Noconie, Tah-con-ne-ah-pe-ah, or Nocona).[1] His father was the renowned chief Iron Jacket, famous among the Comanche for wearing a Spanish coat of mail.

            As for kick's wife, and the whole Lumbee tribe, I'm glad I searched lumb before wordsmithing about lumbees and lumbers.

            All I know is my maternal grandmother was 1/64th Cherokee. But then James Witten was an Indian Fighter (read killer, which i am fine with tyvm) by the age of 16 he was so accomplished they called him the scout. Also, Daniel Boone is a gr8 gr8 uncle via my granny, who is dead and buried now these past 30 years. And, since I'm on the subj. of race, she never would have used Negro when talkin about black folk. to her if they was black, she'd use another n word, regardless of whether they were from Africa, India, or any other country where the peoples have an absence of color in their skin-pigments.

          • Actually , I think he did. No one is allowed on Kyle Field and the Cadets are charged with keeping them off. He might have been a little overenthusiastic..

          • he did grad. and apparently it's quite alright to threaten bodily harm, death, IF you've got the backing of the Aggie grand high muckity mucks. IMO he ought to have been prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

            excerpt from a later incident
            Web Posted : 10/30/2002 12:00 AM

            COLLEGE STATION — The 55 American flags atop Texas A&M's Kyle Field honor the Aggies killed in World War I. The grass beneath and between the flags, so often torn asunder by soiled football players, does not.
            That's why Athletic Director Wally Groff, a 1964 A&M graduate, has a hard time figuring out why the field of Kyle has a mythical reputation as some sort of war memorial.

            "There's no policy about not having anyone on the field because it's a memorial," Groff said Tuesday. "I'd never even heard of that, other than in recent years. It certainly wasn't that way when I was in school. To say that's a myth is to use as good a word as any."

            But that myth also provides some Aggies with the excuse of trying to whip opposing fans who rush onto the field following a football game. It happened again last Saturday, as a Corps of Cadets member swung at and hit a Nebraska fan who sprinted onto the field after the Cornhuskers' 38-31 win.

            And now, an investigation between the Corps and A&M's department of student life is under way to determine exactly what happened Saturday, and to ensure that it doesn't happen again.

            "It certainly reflects poorly on the young man, the Corps of Cadets and Texas A&M in general," Groff said of the incident.

            While the recipient of the hit, a 21-year-old Nebraska student, didn't want to press charges against the unnamed Corps member, he did file some paperwork with A&M university police. The report said that the back of the student's neck was "red and swollen," and that's got the Corps command saying it's seeing red.

            "It's not the Corps' duty to keep people off of the field," said Maj. "Doc" Mills, Corps of Cadets spokesman. "That's the job of law enforcement. Neither the Commandant office or the university condones any sort of public misconduct by any of our cadets."

    • My wife is a member of the Lumbee tribe. She is 1/2 indian. Our daughter is 1/4 indian. Eventually we will get her registered with the tribe and if college tuition assistance is available, I might take advantage if for no other reason than to ensure she does not need to take out a government student loan to help pay for a B.A. We've been aggressively saving but if the market were to tank at the wrong time, the scholarship becomes a good hedge.

      • Nothing wrong with that at all. I wasn't raised as a Native American. My family went out of their way to hide the NA branch of the family tree. One of these days I'll explore that branch just for history's sake and to be able to pass that family history on to future generations. I just feel it would be hypocritical in my situation to suddenly 'go native' for financial gain. More importantly, I want my kids learn that it would be wrong.

  • I bet they are among the very first on her appointment calendar. There's no way in hell that this woman of many colors will even get anywhere near these ladies. It will force Warren to remember all her lies and attempt to persuade a minority group that she is truly one of them and she has their best interest at heart. It'll be another 5+ years, but she'll do it again. Just in time for her next election.

    All you fools in MA bought her lies, half truths and out and out bull shit.

  • "to get Warren to understand that they are hurt..."?

    Oh, really? They expect her to give a flying copulation? Sadly people still don't (or won't) get their minds around exactly how contemptuous the progressives really are- even toward groups they claim to advocate. Once people fully understand that they themselves serve only as an exploitable political commodity to be discarded once whatever is being sought gets squeezed out of them, then they'll stop appealing to whatever fabled sense of decency and humanity that they think these scum possess and begin pushing for them to face charges for the crimes they've committed against us all.

    Fat chance that'll ever happen.

  • Sounds like Fauxahonttis needs a new lie to get back in office, it seems this one is getting old even with the lame stream media.

  • Post Obama she is considered a potential leading candidate. I assume only because she is female. Like the President she has no qualifications.

      • My dog sleeps about 20hours a day.
        He has his food prepared for him.
        His meals are provided at no cost to him.
        He visits the Dr. once a year for his checkup and again during the year, if any medical needs arise.
        For this he pays nothing, and nothing is required of him.
        He lives in a nice neighborhood in a house that is much larger than he needs, but he is not required to do any upkeep.
        If he makes a mess, someone else cleans it up.
        He has his choice of luxurious places to sleep.
        He receives these accommodations absolutely free.
        He is living like a king and has absolutely no expenses whatsoever.
        All of his costs are picked up by others who earn a living.
        I was just thinking about all this, and suddenly it hit me like a ton of bricks ~
        MY dog is a DEMOCRAT!!!

        • Not exactly, your dog actually does something in return for all this. He barks at strangers, and shows appreciation for what you do for him. Therefore he is nothing like a Democrat, except that he eats his own poop.
