Indeed she is. So is the GOP. Thats my point. Voting for either is a really bad idea.

Rachel Dolezal and Ward Churchill?
Not a thing. They are perfectly normal, well adjusted people...Pillars of the community and a fine examples to children everywhere.

Warren wasnt the first Indian senator...Ben Nighthorse Campbell was. Sorry, first woman Indian senator, unless Ben changed his name to Beverly.

Okay, but will she lose her professorship? Because you know she lied to them, too?

Is she going to pay back the money for her full-paid scholarship to Howard University because she checked the box that said African American?
If the humanoid formerly known as Bruce Jenner can insist it's a woman, then why can't Miss Dolezal call herself Black? After all, who are we to argue? Whether she intended to or not, she has demonstrated just how wrong the concept of affirmative action and "minority" set asides is, not to mention the stupidity of the politics of race. NOW can we all judge each other by the content of our character?

Dolezal has no character, she's a liar and a fraud. Anyone with any character of their own has already been doing exactly that.

I'm just thinking of possible unintended consequences as a result of her deceit, whatever her motivations.

If what you mean is that her deception may cause those who do not yet reject affirmative action and minority set-asides to see the light, I certainly hope so. Such programs were essentially flawed to begin with, and have become a millstone around our necks.

The headline is so ironic. Just a decade ago it would read:

Warren wasnt the first Indian senator...Ben Nighthorse Campbell was.Except Sen. Ben Nighthorse Campbell was a real Indian; a Republican supporter of Pres. Reagan; and a black belt in judo. How can that compare to a liar and fraud such as Elizabeth Warren or Rachel Dozeil for that matter /sarc

How did she manage that? Did she put on Jolson makeup? When did they notice that she wasn’t really black? What happened to alert them to this? It’s like an SNL sketch.

Eddie Murphy once pretended to be white, and has numerous times pretending to be an old Jewish man with a Yiddish accent, and also Stevie Wonder, Gumby and Buckwheat. Isn’t it payback time?
