Welcome to the Watcher’s Council, a blogging group consisting of some of the most incisive blogs in the ‘sphere and the longest running group of its kind in existence. Every week, the members nominate two posts each, one written by themselves and one written by someone from outside the group for consideration by the whole Council. Then we vote on the best two posts, with the results appearing on Friday.
The above is a photo of Harvard professor, self-styled ‘consumer activist’ and Massachusetts Democrat Senate Candidate Elizabeth Warren in her secret minority Identity as Chief Spreading Bull. True to form, she’s dressed in the war bonnet of a Lakota, rather than the tribe she *cough* claims to belong to, but then that’s part of the fun.
By now, most of you know that Princess Dances-With-Marxism has claimed to be a Native American throughout her career, taking advantage of ‘diversity’ to get affirmative action bennies at the University of Houston, Rutgers and of course, Harvard University where she was eagerly hired as a professor. (‘Quick, let’s hire her… we don’t have one of those.’)
Oddly enough, no one ever asked Warren for proof until recently and the best that our friend Minni-blah-blah was able to provide was an 1884 genealogical document that might prove that her great, great, great grandmother was Cherokee. As the genealogist who found it said, ‘This needs more research.’
If this document is accurate, that would make Elizabeth Warren all of 1/32nd Cherokee Indian. Based on that criteria, President Obama is an Arab Muslim and I’m the lost heir to the throne of Lithuania.
Odd that many Democrats seem unwilling to disavow racial ‘classifications’ that have more than an aroma of the Nazi’s old Racial Purity Laws. But then, oddly enough, President Obama’s new campaign slogan has an odor redolent of the same place and time. Just a coincidence, I’m sure.
