    What's up with that?
    They are just trying to save the Democrat party from making asses out themselves again. You really should be thanking them........

They have the best performing schools, according to NAEP testing, they have the highest percent of residents with four-year degrees, the highest percent with advanced degrees, and a vastly disproportionate share of the best universities and colleges in the country. So, Massachusetts just doesn't react to Fox News propaganda the way the ignorant parts of the country do. While, the brain-dead yahoos in the under-educated states bray on command against Warren, she remains quite popular in Massachusetts.
    Warren is just a wealthy entitled white woman

    She said way the fuck more than that. Your support of her fraudulent claim is equally despicable. Native Americans have much at stake in the protection of their heritage and culture. Fuck your stupidity on this issue.

    The life of an "organism" begins at conception. When a human becomes a person endowed with specific rights varies depending on numerous factors,
    including which right is under consideration. And that includes the right to life or to continue living, AssHatZ. Abortion is a question of rights,
    not solely a question of science.

    And can we talk at all about your selective double-standard when it comes to the truth?

    wealthy entitled white women do not cook meals--especially mine. I don't know whether she is any of those other things---you must know her better than I do.

    Who cares?

    I mean, who would make a big deal about her heritage? Who would bring it up dozens if not hundreds of times?

    Who? Who would care?

    umm which “literally thousands of lies” would those be? How about we start with your proving your accusation. I’ve already posted on Liz Warrens claim to show her lie.
    TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP!

    Who would do that?

    The first thread here was started by a liberal. The Boston Globe ran with the story. Why, because Liz Warren made the claim.
    TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP!

    Kim Tallbear, a University of Alberta professor and author of Native American DNA: Tribal Belonging and the False Promise of Genetic Science told The Atlantic. (Tallbear is a member of the Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate tribe and has written extensively on this topic.)

    Additionally, having some Native American ancestry “proven” from a DNA test does not automatically mean that someone is or should be, say, a member of the Cherokee tribe. “People think that there’s a DNA test that can prove if somebody is Native American or not. There isn’t,” Tallbear told New Scientist. Tribal affiliation is about more than genetics. It is also about history, culture, and political identity. The same is true of every culture, but these issues are especially sensitive given the history of the Native Americans in the US.

    Tallbear noted that it’s popular for white people to claim Native American ancestry, but “tribe” is a federally recognized status, and being Cherokee is about more than DNA analysis. And as DNA tests have become more and more widespread, people are showing up at tribal-enrollment offices with their results. “That worries us in a land where we already feel there’s very little understanding about the history of our tribes, our relationships with colonial powers, and the conditions of our lives now,” she said.

    In a statement provided today, Tallbear pointed out that Warren shouldn’t continue to defend her ancestry claims despite refusing to meet with Cherokee Nation members that challenge her. “This shows that she focuses on and actually privileges DNA company definitions in this debate, which are ultimately settler-colonial definitions of who is indigenous,” Tallbear writes. “She and much of the US American public privilege the voices of (mostly white) genome scientists and implicitly cede to them the power to define indigenous identity.” Similarly, the Cherokee Nation said in a statement that “Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage.”
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.
