Scott has been mischievously promoting Keith Ellison to head the DNC. In the same spirit, I enthusiastically endorse Elizabeth Warren as the new face of the Democratic Party. The consensus is that Mitch McConnell’s “silencing” of Warren–we can only dream!–per Senate Rule 19 was a mistake because it cemented Warren’s role as the Democrats’ most visible spokesman. But let’s look on the bright side: Warren combines Hillary Clinton’s likability with Bernie Sanders’ sensible policy prescriptions, and adds to the mix her own unique dishonesty and hypocrisy.
Warren’s attack on Jeff Sessions was dishonest. She knows he is no racist. The Young Cons point out this “Governmental Award of Excellence” that the NAACP presented to Senator Sessions “for the outstanding work you do.”
Warren’s status as a fake Indian will dog her forever, too. Dana Loesch, who unlike Warren is actually part Indian, unloaded on her:
I think it’s hysterical that this woman, who is a cultural appropriator, who is a race appropriator, that she has the audacity to engage in some sort of race-based attack against someone simply because she doesn’t like their party affiliation and doesn’t wish to see them confirmed to be AG. And I’ll tell you this, the closest that her ancestors ever came to American Indians was rounding up my ancestors, so let’s get that straight right now if anyone wants to have a discussion on what is or is not racist.
I’ll reiterate that so the folks at Media Matters, for whom we pay the bills over there, so they can get it right. She’s a racist who appropriated an entire ethnicity so that she could get a job at Harvard. She’s a racist hypocrite. Democrats, and particularly all these anti-gun people, need to stop making excuses for the original Rachel Dolezal.
Fauxcahontas for president! With her and Keith Ellison leading the Democrats, how can they go wrong?
The Norse sagas mention the natives who met Leif Eriksson and his companions (not in a friendly way), and call them Skraellings (apparently means "screamers"). Since Leif is earlier than Columbus, maybe that name should be used instead of "Indians." Cleveland Skraellings, anyone?
The Democrats have obviously figured out that ratcheting up their name-calling, rioting, and general unpleasantness is the way to future victories—a surefire way to win back the millions of Trump voters who had voted Democrat in earlier elections. That seems to be their strategy.
Lizzie has to make a POTUS run, because her national support is spread so thin she might lose her Senate seat if she runs for it again.
There's a long list, from Maxine Waters to Al Franken to Barney Frank, all kooks.
The sad thing is that it doesn’t matter who runs as a Democrat for President - Franken the clown or Warren the fake Indian. They’ll still get at least 45% the votes.
Hillary won the popular vote (admittedly ignoring fraud) and she was about as revolting as a human being could get. Imagine a what likeable Democrat (or one with no record...) could achieve?
1. It was not called America when they came.
2. My great grandmother was Sioux.
I have an alternative I heard last night on Hannity: Al Franken and Jill Stein.
FrankenStein!
My great grandmother is 1/4 Indian. I guess I blew a lot of opportunities by not claiming Native American status! All along, I thought I was just an American.
Why imagine??
Exactly my point.
We need to make sure the Democrats keep advancing Hillary-like shrews with long, exploitable records.
Don’t forget about Nancy Botoxly for minority leader. She said yesterday she was going to protect “children and all living things” from President Trump, LMAO!
Yes, run Fauxahontas for president. She will trot out her “Nasty Women Vote” speech, we know how well that helped out Cankles LOL!
