Warren: I Was 'First Nursing Mother' to Take Bar Exam in NJ (carried it in a papoose?)
Weekly Standard ^ | 5/30/12 | Michael Warren

Posted on 05/30/2012 7:51:36 AM PDT by Clint N. Suhks

Massachusetts Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren claimed at an event in 2011 that she was the "first nursing mother" in New Jersey to take that state's bar exam. The Boston Herald reports:

“I was the first nursing mother to take a bar exam in the state of New Jersey,” Warren told an audience at the Chicago Humanities Festival in 2011, in a video posted on the CHF website. When asked how Warren knows that, her campaign said: “Elizabeth was making a point about the very serious challenges she faced as a working mom — from taking an all-day bar exam when she was still breast-feeding, to finding work as a lawyer that would accommodate a mom with two small children.”

The Herald goes on to point out that women have been taking the bar exam in New Jersey since 1895, and a spokeswoman for the New Jersey Judiciary says she is "not aware" if the state tracked the nursing habits of those taking the bar.

The unverifiable claim is only the latest from Warren, who is challenging Republican Scott Brown for the U.S. Senate.

Warren has also said, both on the trail and in her professional life, that she descended from Cherokee Indians, but has been unable to back up this claim with any facts. Now, according to William Jacobson at the blog Legal Insurrection, a group of Cherokee people have started a website (and a Facebook page) called "Cherokees Demand Truth from Elizabeth Warren." The group's message to Warren is, "You claim to be Cherokee. You forget, it isn't who you claim, but instead, who claims you. We don't claim you!"

This woman is a distinguished grad in the Obamaloon/Clinton school of Lie-O-logy.

If we cannot win against such slime, we really don’t deserve to win at all.

She got her degree in mixology from http://www.barschool.com/ serving the greater New Jersey area.

So full of it, and not of mother’s milk either.

There were at least several before her, I’m sure, who did not make a public announcement of it.

Combining law school and a baby is hard for mother or father - combining law school and breast-feeding is a challenge but nobody is owed an easy path to “having it all.” Her baby certainly didn’t get the most optimum of infancies.

Die-hard leftists simply prefer empty and meaningless symbolism to truth, facts, and reality in general.

Warren is the perfect caricature of the clueless leftist who puts bogus feelings ahead of rational thought - could she possibly be any more phony and predictable?

I guess she would have sat a little farther away from the desk when she took the bar; otherwise I don’t see the difference from other women who take the bar. I wonder if any pregnant women have taken the bar in NJ?

I think I have found a new tag line. It is applicable to almost any situation.

Apparently, Time magazine missed Princess Milking Cow Full In Breast for the cover.

Warren is patently laughable. Her devolution from a forceful, cogent (however liberally misguided) advocate for liberal ideology in pressing forward the "we all derive benefit from society - so what you earned isn't yours" crap, to an historical liar who took advantage of every claim, false or otherwise, that allowed her upgraded status, however achieved.

It is only with the flashlight of inspection shining its light on the kitchen roach lies she has concocted that we see more lies instead of scattering into obscurity like roaches often do. Well, it is to be expected. Democrats and liberals ALWAYS say "stick with the lie."

“I was the first nursing mother to take a bar exam in the state of New Jersey,”

Well, that certainly qualifies her for the Senate.

Warren is an example of the Pelosi/Obama/Biden model of a shameless arrogant bloviating fabricator.

She is genuinely incapable of speaking the truth.

Plus she thinks the electorate consists of complete idiots (which, in the case of 90% of the democrats, is quite true).

Their blind afinity for and worship of academics is the liberal's greatest failing . . . well okay, ONE of their greatest failings.

She’s not that ancient, is she?

Others taking bar exam may not feel like nursing their offsprings at the same time?
