my teabag sister keeps bringing up Eliz. Warren's Indian ancestry

[grasswire]

Was that ever settled? It's impossible to google for the truth because the nutters have flooded the Internets with hooting and hollering.

My sister thinks it is hilarious, still.

2. haters got to hate

Yes, it was explained. And it was pretty racist for Brown to bring it up.

3. Why does she even care? Is she in MA?

[elleng]

4. What's to 'settle?'

She has Native American ancestry, and didn't use that fact to enhance her applications for admission to any school or job.

12. I'd say that most people born in Ok has Indian blood

beings as how she was born in OK city I'd bet money she has some native american blood flowing though her veins

Kick some racist ass Senator Warren

5. My mom is 1/4 Sioux

Blonde hair, blue eyes. My sister is 1/8, blonde hair blue eyes.

The boys on the other hand, brown hair and unless you shine a flashlight into their eyes you can't tell they're brown they're so dark.

6. ask her to laugh at the Chief of the Cherokee Nation

that has roughly the same amount of heritage, so to speak.

7. I guess I'd ask her why she's obsessed with that

The election is over, you know?

[still_one]

8. Tell you sister Elizabeth Warren and President Obama won. Tell her to move on

[immoderate]

9. Great scam. If she never mentioned it...

Then they could accuse her of hiding it.

[Proud Liberal Dem]
