From Cherokees Demand Truth from Elizabeth Warren (Facebook group here):
From Polly’s Grandaughter blog:
“But part of the underlying social contract is you take a hunk of that and pay forward for the next kid who comes along.” Elizabeth Warren
Now she has the nerve to tell other people they need to pay it forward. Is she kidding? There is a tight knit group of American Indian professors in the US. They do what they can to mentor and help one another and they often end up working with and helping tribes. Warren was not part of that group, nor did she ever make any attempt to be part of that group, despite her claim she listed herself as a minority to meet others like herself.
She has never reached out to tribes or Cherokees to “pay it forward.” She wouldn’t even give the Cherokee women who traveled a long way to meet with her the courtesy of meeting with them.
Apparently Warren’s way of “paying it forward” is to marginalize Cherokees and other American Indians…
It is time Elizabeth Warren reviews the documentation of her genealogy and admits she is not Cherokee. Maybe then, and only then, she can find a way to “pay it forward” to Cherokees and other American Indians.

She built a career as a Cherokee?
Good for her!
She did it on her own. Only in America.
Yup. She started at the bottom as an Cherokee trainee working her way through the probationary period all the way to chief. A classic Native American success story.
“…you take a hunk of that and pay forward…”

Keep pounding this rock. It’s working.
Senator Brown or a Tea Party group should make campaign spots bringing up Warren’s refusal to admit the truth not just as a lie but as a mental health issue. It is diffusional to double down on something that has been documented as a falsehood. She must be clearly labeled as a kook.
“Jerry, just remember. It’s not a lie if you believe it.”

Fellow Massachusetts Voters,
After claiming Cherokee ancestry to advance her career by affirmative action, Elizabeth Warren dropped any connection to the Cherokees. She has done nothing on behalf of their interests.
Now Warren says she wants to represent us as a Senator. In fact, she’s raising money in Hollywood and her eye is on national office.
Don’t let Elizabeth Warren use you like she used the Cherokee Nation.
At some point, she will lead an effort to redirect taxpayer money to the Cherokees to “pay it forward”. People like Warren believe in always paying their bills… just with other people’s money… usually taxpayer’s money.
I doubt that. If she did, it would be like everything else the Federal Government ever gave the Indians: diseased, dishonest, disused and destructive.

What’s so fascinating is that there are supporters of Lizzy Warren, Princess Running Bare, who say that she’s on track to be president some day.
Yep, if Lizzy is on track to be our country’s first female president, Chieftain of the US, COFUS, God help us all. Because if she does become COFUS, there’ll be no hope of any change back to the USA.
When have liberals ever admitted they were wrong about anything to anyone, which is why they are so arrogant, intolerant, and immature. But try telling them that.. It’s like talking to a brick wall, which I don’t even try..
I wonder how this is playing out with various groups in Mass. Clearly there’s a negative reaction from relatively non-political blue collar types who have experienced discrimination as a result of affirmative action. But how is she playing in academe? Are my academic friends in the turkey state having pangs of conscience, suspecting that affirmative action has pushed a dishonest and incompetent person to a position of academic leadership and perhaps to national leadership? It’s a possibility that she may actually lose some liberal votes as a result of this, although it seems also a possible that the questioning could provoke a defensive reaction. I’d like to see some sensitive polling on this.
“Are my academic friends in the turkey state having pangs of conscience, suspecting that affirmative action has pushed a dishonest and incompetent person to a position of academic leadership and perhaps to national leadership?”
Nope. They’ll soon locate the applicable nonsensical justification, something along the lines of:
‘Tis better that 100 women like Elizabeth Warren take undeserved benefit from affirmative action than just one person suffer discrimination without it.’
It’s definitely a possibility – I know some liberal folks in Massachusetts, and they are revolted at Elizabeth Warren’s lies and opportunism when it came to stealing that Harvard job. People are very well aware that she elbowed a real minority out of the way and presented herself as the perfect ‘woman of color’ – white! – to Harvard, which then grabbed her as the make-no-problems type of minority person they were looking to hire.
The question is how many people will be willing to swallow their disgust and vote for this charlatan in November, and to what extent they will refuse and just not vote for anyone on the Senate ticket, leaving that part of the ballot blank.
That skanky,corrupt twit wouldn’t know the truth if it jumped up and bit her throat.
Warren redefines the expression, “Have no shame!”
Shameful indeed…
The blood of my long dead Indian ancestors [how’s that for a dramatic flourish!] pounds inside my temples when I hear this smug, nasty, devious, clueless, b!tch claim to be Indian.
As I’ve said before, both myself and members of my circle of friends and family, are considerably more Indian than Lizzy “1/32” Warren, and none of us would ever, ever try to pass as Indian. As the Cherokee spokeswoman said, that is stealing a blood right, a heritage to which you are NOT entitled.
Yes, to be Indian, there is a misery and suffering quotient that precious few know of or can appreciate. It’s different than telling someone you’re Irish or claiming that your ancestor was a Swedish king or something.
Claiming to be Indian is seizing the reality of an ancestry where your mere existence in the present time is something akin to a miracle of survival. It’s almost like claiming to be a Holocaust survivor or the family of one. Sadly, or gladly, there is a reverence attached to being Indian, and to defile that reverence through a bogus claim, is to besmirch the whole race, as well as your honor.
This bullsh!t story of her parents eloping because her mother was “Native American”, is totally bogus. Maybe it resonates in Boston or at Harvard, but it veritably drips with the sour bile of contrivance in a place like Oklahoma, or even Texas, Arkansas or Louisiana. Hell, if you’re an Okie and DON’T have some Indian in you, people start thinking you’re from an alien spaceship or from California (which is pretty much the same).
Also, Lizzy… no Indian calls himself or herself “Native American”. Indian. Say it, you liar! It rolls off your tongue, unless you really can’t bring yourself to say it. Maybe even YOU know how idiotic it sounds coming from your lips.
Sorry for the rant, friends… this whole thing makes me sick.
Get back to Fast and Furious, Solyndra and the other scandals. These are national in scope. Yes it is important to “beat the drums” on Warren, but in the end, she is local.
“While we are citizens of our respective Cherokee nations, we do not speak for nor represent any of the governments of the three federally recognized tribes; the Cherokee Nation, the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians and the opinions shared here are ours, and ours alone.”

“TAHLEQUAH, Okla. – Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Bill John Baker and Attorney General Todd Hembree met with President Barack Obama to discuss a matter before the United States Supreme Court that could mean more than $50 million to the Cherokee Nation.”
William A. Jacobson, I don’t if you saw this or not… but might this not bode well for the chances that the Cherokee Nation will continue to press the issue with Elizabeth Warren? Hell, the way things have been going I wouldn’t be surprised if Obama enacts further executive privilege proclaiming Warren a full blooded Cherokee. Or maybe the long form doc of the Dawes Rolls with Great Great Great Mamau’s name will be miraculously found.
p.r.o.t.o: the Cherokee Nation will continue to press the issue with Elizabeth Warren?
The Cherokee Nation is not pressing the issue; just a few individual Cherokees.
