Huh? What did you say?

See the video at the bottom of the page. An alert Howie Carr listener, posing as a Warren fan, hands "Pow Wow Chow," Warren's Indian cookbook, to Liz to sign.
On his radio show, Howie said he is going to test the sharpie cap, which she placed in her mouth, for Indian DNA.
I'd love to see a rumble for her cup!
Someone hands you their pen to sign something and you PUT THE CAP IN YOUR MOUTH???????? Disgusting.
Isn’t Pow Wow Chow a little insensitive to Native Americans? /s
I don’t think it matters if she is 1/32 or 0/32 Cherokee. 1/32 Cherokee means:
1) she is only 3% Cherokee; in other words 97% NOT Cherokee.
2) Her Cherokee ancestor DIED well over a hundred years ago (in fact, about the time of the Civil War, by my calculations).
None of that should qualifies her for special privileges; none of that would cause her to be discriminated against; none of that should have caused her to need an extra helping hand in life.
3% or 0% Cherokee—who cares! The point is that any system that allows someone like Warren to claim special privileges based on race is a sham.
She has no Cherokee ancestor. She has an ancestor in the Tennessee militia who put them on the Trail of Tears.
-— 3% or 0% Cherokee—who cares-—
True. But we want to keep this issue alive. The media here, aside from the Herald and talk radio, won’t mention it.
That’s the BIA minimum standard for tribal identity. It’s astounding to me as it seems even 1/4 native heritage should mean very little.
Agreed. That is really crude.
Huh? What did you say?
On the bank of the Charles river,
Stood the home-made Indian maid.
On the other side of the river,
Stood the office that she craved.
Fauxahontis was her name,
Such a sorry sight to see.
And the truth? Iit was not in her,
Tho’ a senator she wanted to be.
Fauxahontis loved Affirmative Action,
With a love big as the sky.
Yes she loved the easy money,
With a love that couldn’t die.
She couldn’t make it on her own,
To the Harvard job she eyed.
The way was just too hard she moaned,
But she got it when she lied.
In the cloisters of old Cambridge,
She was safe from prying eyes.
When she tried to leave the college,
They uncovered her disguise.
I am a Cherokee maiden cried she,
See my cheekbones, hear my tale.
How dare you commonfolk doubt me,
But she complained to no avail.
The commonfolk did hue and cry,
This imposter is not a Cherokee!
She made it up, she told a lie,
No innocent indian maid is she.
Still on the bank of river we see,
The false Indian maiden so bold.
It’s not a lie she screams her plea,
If you believe it when it’s told.
“Someone hands you their pen to sign something and you PUT THE CAP IN YOUR MOUTH???????? Disgusting.”
And remember not to leave your toothbrush out in the BR when you are having a party!
A doctor reaches into his pocket for a pen to sign something.
He pulls out a rectal thermometer.
“Crap!” He says, “Some butthole has my pen.”
I would like to know what 'pow wow' means in Indian terminology from someone who knows. I had this inclination (and I am more Indian than Ms. Warren) that the men had a pow wow when they were considering whether to mount a war party.
Not just race, but gender, income class, and political influence. Our system is a sham, due to the corruption of it.
I think the problem (the corruption,scam) comes from the fact that the people we pay to protect us in front of the ‘law’(court), The LAWYERS, figured out that they could make even more money if they also MADE the laws.
Shouldn't this be breaking news?
Yah think? I'm gabberflasted!
