    believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment.

    Wrong again.

    Fits her well. I think you want to be able to determine who "believes" they are inherently deserving. Let me guess--you think Kavanaugh believes he was inherently entitled. Warren was not born entitled but became so by virtue of her position. She is already sending staffers to the four early primary states.

    Your reality is distorted by your ideology.

    Pyrrhic victory.
    And i have a trace of East African in me. As with her that could have come from either side and be passed via siblings not in her pedigree.

    And six to generations back ? Plese.

    Try this on for size. If you have westerm europe in your background you are related to Charlemagne.

    She became wealthy by her hard work. After humble beginnings and family disasters. Nothing inherent about that.

    Staffers to 4 primary states is laughingly irrelevant to your claim.

    Guess all you want, pally. I never mentioned Kavanaugh. I did, however, mention the Liar-in-Chief.

    Irrelevant.

    Word games and goal post moving do not change this fact.

    You and your fat ass Orange Hero suggested she was lying about having native American ancestry from her great-great-great grandmother.

    That is the salient point.


    You were wrong.


    She was telling the truth.

    Those involved in her selections said the Indian heritage thing did NOT figure in anything. She was a highly qualified and well-educated candidate. That is why she was hired. Of course that is just the people who hired her say. what do they know compared to far righty posters who cannot understand facts .

    In this case a human being is created, period, keep your lame, leftis,t baby hating false science, to yourself. As soon as that fertilized egg, now a human being, comes out as anything but a human being, we will talk!

    Certainly she's wealthy. Although she was born and raised in lower-middle-class obscurity, she has become an acclaimed professor, a senator, and a best-selling author, and in the process has become a multi-millionaire. And I suppose she's "White," if by that you mean "of predominantly European ancestry. But what makes you think she's "entitled"?

    You made no relevant points. Just the usual LWNJ issued talking points.

    Since humans are 60% genetically similar to bananas, Trump should start calling her Chiquitahontas since she is about the same amount Native American.

    No irony--they are all examples of wealthy entitled white people. The staff to the early primary states illustrates what Warren thinks she is entitled to next.
