Liberal Forum

Frederick Douglass posted a Direct Message exchange he had with someone on Twitter.

TLDR

Is this yer latest soap opera thing?


BTW Misty...do you believe everything the WaPo puts out? Just curious.

Hey Misty...Hillary said she didn't know her campaign helped finance the dossier. Do you believe her?

Debbie WS said she didn't know the DNC did it too. Do you believe her?

Both of these women were in charge at the time it all happened.

It wasn't racist.
But Warren claiming to be part Indian was racist and Indians criticized her for claiming to be something that she is not.

You know Andy Borowitz writes satire, right?

Elizabeth Warren was only repeating what she had been told by her family.
A Genealogist named Chris Child said that she actually does have a Native American ancester.

In her application to Rutgers, when asked if she wanted to apply for admission under the school’s Program for Minority Group Students, she answered NO.

And she listed herself as WHITE in her employment documents at the University of Texas.

And as for her job at Harvard:

The Herald twice quoted Charles Fried, the head of the Harvard appointing committee that recommended Warren for her position in 1995, said that her heritage didn’t come up during the course of her hiring.

“It simply played no role in the appointments process,” he said.
“It was not mentioned and I didn’t mention it to the faculty.”

The Herald later quoted Fried, a former U.S. Solicitor General under President Ronald Reagan, saying, “I can state categorically that the subject of her Native American ancestry never once was mentioned.”

So she never used a claim to be Native American to further either her education or her career.
That was a lie initiated by Scott Brown when he ran against her, and now perpetrated by 45.

Snopes says "mixure" and snope is leftwing.

This from yesterday on Fox News...btw, I know you'll bash Fox News, but remember that when you learn that Fox News defended the WaPo over the Veritas fake accuser.

"Warren lied about Native American heritage to get Harvard job: Varney" Warren also lied about Pocahontas being a racial slur.

More than ever now that James O'Keefe (Project Veritas) has proven that they do their homework before they publish a story.

How about the editorial page making claims and assertions about the Russian investigation without evidence.


PV got spiked this time...but they have exposed sources like the WaPo, NYT, etc. many times and you ignore that part.

Ya see Misty...I can acknowledge what PV did this time...but you can't acknowledge the same about what the WaPo, NYT, etc. have been caught doing.

That makes me more honest than you are.

You can believe Stuart Varney if you want to.
I choose to believe the man who actually recruited Warren for the job at Harvard, who BTW is NOT a left winger.

The Herald twice quoted Charles Fried, the head of the Harvard appointing committee that recommended Warren for her position in 1995, said that her heritage didn’t come up during the course of her hiring.

And when you use the name of Pocahontas as an insult, it IS a racial slur.

You're wrong on both counts.


The difference is I can say what PV did was stupid, but you can't say it about the stuff your sources do.

That's where we differ Misty.

The editorial page is not the same as the hard news division.
If PV is so wonderful and honest, then why are they being sued so much?
And why is James O'Keefe trying to get his insurance company to pay out the legal settlements for him?

https://www.buzzfeed.com/stevenperlberg ... ce-company

And why does PV call itself a charity?

PV has exposed far more leftist media than they have done wrong themselves.


You know it but won't admit it.


Thanx

How am I wrong?
I am quoting the man who actually recommended Warren for the job at Harvard, and you are quoting some guy from FOX News.

Native American leaders say that they consider using the name of Pocahontas as an insult the way that 45 does, a racial slur.

It's not up to Stuart Varney or Eric Trump as white men to decide what they consider to be a racial slur.

Is 'Pocahontas' a racial slur? Eric Trump defends his dad, but Native Americans say otherwise.

John Norwood, general secretary of the Alliance of Colonial Era Tribes, told NBC News Trump's use of the name to mock Sen. Elizabeth Warren "smacks of racism."

“The reference is using a historic American Indian figure as a derogatory insult and that’s insulting to all American Indians,” Norwood told the network, adding that Trump should "stop using our historical people of significance as a racial slur against one of his opponents.”

What I know is that James O'Keefe is a lying sack of **** who uses deceptively edited and sometimes illegally recorded videos to advance his agenda.

And what I also know is that you didn't answer my questions.

You're a tool in denial.

I'm sorry but Melania's Christmas hallway is downright creepy.

I didn't quote Elizabeth Warren. I quoted the Native American leaders who say it's a racist slur when used as an insult the way that 45 uses it.
