Settle down, Fauxcahontas.

(Boston Herald) — On their first day in the Hub, a group of Cherokees hoping to confront Elizabeth Warren over her Native American heritage claims blasted the Democrat for trying to dismiss the ancestry controversy as a non-issue in the Bay State U.S. Senate race.

“Poverty, teen suicide, our health care system,” said Cherokee genealogist Twila Barnes in an interview today with the Herald. “Those are issues and those are the people she stepped on and used to benefit and now she says it’s not an issue. Well, of course, to her it’s not an issue because she doesn’t want to address that she did this.”

Ali Sacks, a Cherokee from Warren’s home state of Oklahoma, had harsher words: “It’s cowardly to ride the coattails of people who have lost so much for your own benefit and not accomplish what you can accomplish on your own benefits. I think it’s shameful and extremely disrespectful not just to Cherokees but to all tribes who have given so much to this country historically and lost so much.”

Four Cherokee women are in Boston for four days hoping to arrange a meeting with Warren. A spokeswoman for the Warren campaign told the Herald Sunday a staff member would greet the group, but the women told the Herald this morning they’ve still heard nothing from the campaign. [...]

Half-breed, now, that is all she ever hears.... and she wishes it were either true or she had not lied about it.

The people of MA will probably vote her in over Brown. Hey, since he is a MA RINO, what is he worth?

The opportunity to “demote” Harry Reid.

The Cherokee thing is a smokescreen. She is really Castro's daughter.

My wife's maternal grandfather was 100% full Cherokee and her grandmother was half Cherokee, and both lived on a reservation out west. By our reckoning, that makes her about eight times more documented blood Cherokee than Warren and her thrice-removed family folk tale heritage. Now, while acknowledging that my wife is Republican, does it still make her a right wing extremist if she'd like to kick Warren's ass for hiding behind her 'people'? Those dark-haired, brown-eyed sistas gotta stick together, ya know.........

Poor babys. The commie ‘RATS, including their boy Barry, are so damned thin-skinned. None of them can take a punch. Barry and the ‘RATS are out there whining that Americans are being mean by heckling their messiah. What a bunch of crybabies.

“The out-of-state group in question is being promoted and supported by a right wing extremist.”

So I guess this means it’s:

“Fauxcahontas” vs. “Types With Cheetos”

[JLS]

Actually infinitely more Cherokee, since Warren is zero percent and you wife is some actual percent.

[Kickass Conservative]

When I think Native Americans, I think Right Wing Extremists. LOL

She’s on the warpath!
