THE ACADEMIC SCANDAL ELIZABETH WARREN AND HARVARD DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT
http://www.breitbart.com ^ | 6/11/12 | MICHAEL PATRICK LEAHY

In 1990, Rutgers Professor Philip Shuchman charged Elizabeth Warren, along with Teresa A. Sullivan (above), the President of University of Virginia who resigned unexpectedly yesterday, and Jay Westbrook, her two co-authors of the 1989 book, As We Forgive Our Debtors: Bankruptcy and Consumer Credit in America, with “scientific misconduct.” Within a few months, Warren’s friends and former colleagues at the University of Texas quickly completed an error-filled investigation.

It's not all research monies scams per se, Sullivan is involved in trying to deny email access of Micheal Mann's tenure there in relation to his AGW work.

She's actively involved in white washing.

Shouldn’t that be ‘were’ instead of ‘was’?

In the meantime, Scott Brown can just stand by while she keeps digging a deeper and deeper hole.

This is potentially huge...especially if it turns out she did in fact, “play with the data”.

The scuttlebutt is that it's all about Professor Mann's development of his tree ring Global Warming evidence while resident at University of Virginia.

Dr. Sullivan had skeletons ~ ACADEMIC SKELETONS ~ in her academic closet that dasn't not see the light of day. Those who knew what they were simply beat her down so she'd protect Dr. Mann from being subjected to any sort of investigation regarding what he'd done at UVA ~ on state money among other things.

This Sullivan gal and her friends in the Democrat party and at the Washington Post fought like crazy to keep "the Cooch" from investigating Mann, and presumably Sullivan, and the rest of the AGW cabal working to peddle phony baloney global warming nutso arguments.

I think the whole thing just came unstrung ~ remember those names, Warren, Sullivan, Mann, Donald Graham Jr., Warren Buffett (his investors own the Post), the editorial staff members at the Post, and a whole host of troglodytes who thought it more important to protect fraudulent misrepresentation than good science!

"The Cooch" can probably end up President if he can take down the whole fraud ridden bunch.

Further proof that elite liberalism is nothing but a cadre of self-appointed, self-righteous, self-important hypocrites whose primary goal is to protect each other as they foist unspeakable damage on the nation.

Oh yes; and the key word - and 'prefix', of course - is 'SELF'. The proof, that speaks for itself: Liberalism; Leftism; is the politicall expression of classic 'narcissism' - unplugged.

(Definitely a narcissistic 'chicken/egg' going on here; per those attracted to the 'Liberal/Left' causes and MO's. And why these same; can NEVER experience an authentic patriotism/altruism' much less a personal humility - despite their claims to such. Log of 'Self', in eye; simply to big )

We know that Obama's narcissism reaches pathological levels by his undiluted, arrogance and 'will to wield' power. His narcissism, marks him as the President, who would be King; and even more unspeakable grandiosity's.

We must leave this pathetic version of American leadership, as no more than a 'has been' President; who mistakenly, was given a chance - but only one.

I is the noun in my sentence, so the singular noun should be matched with a singular verb. ;-)

Au contraire, Senor Freeper! We are dealing with the subjunctive case and that requires “were” not “was”.

Example: song from Fiddler on the Roof...”If I WERE a rich man...”

From dictionary.com: The subjunctive mood of the verb, once used extensively in English, has largely disappeared today. The subjunctive survives, though by no means consistently, in sentences with conditional clauses contrary to fact and in subordinate clauses after verbs like wish: If the house were nearer to the road, we would hear more traffic noise. I wish I were in Florida. The subjunctive also occurs in subordinate that clauses after a main clause expressing recommendation, resolution, demand, etc.: We ask that each tenant take (not takes ) responsibility for keeping the front door locked. It is important that only fresh spinach be (not is ) used. The subjunctive occurs too in some established or idiomatic expressions: So be it. Heaven help us. God rest ye merry, gentlemen. Were in the phrase as it were, meaning “in a way,” is a subjunctive: His apology, as it were, sounded more like an insult.


Never doubt the Grammar Queen, Mistress of the Red Pen!

I had posted: “If I was a member of the grammar police...”

“I” is the subject in the sentence.

It would be correct to say. “If we were members of the grammar police...”

Is it correct to say, “We was” or “We were”?

Yes, I understand that “I” was the subject of your sentence, but this is the subjunctive case which requires the word “were” not “was”. Look it up if you don’t believe me.

One would say “I was in Boston.” but “If I were in Boston,...” Both are correct... unless you don’t want to be anywhere near Boston. ;-)
