Elizabeth Warren releases DNA results to prove she is partially Native American

a reply to: TinySickTears

Don't have to.

This means she could be 1/32nd Native American, or just 1/512th Native American if the ancestor is 10 generations back.

Could/If.

Not definitive proof.

So whose lying?

a reply to: neo96

But that means it's in her heritage correct.

And trump is lying. As usual.

He said a thing but now he is saying he didn't.

So the usual # you love him for.

Meme time???

You get YOUR facts straight! I said, this was drudged up from some form Warren filled out some 25 years ago. Trump and his followers raised this from the dead, in order to mock and degrade Warren for her family tree and cultural history.

OH WAIT!!!....now 25 years ago doesn't matter?????? WHAT????

Didn't you all JUST get done saying 25 years ago is OH SO RELEVANT...with the CAVANAUGH hearings????

NOW...it's "raised from the dead, in order to mock and degrade..."???? Oh my FARKING GOD!! Can't you people make up your minds????!!!!!

So it's only okay if ONE side raises BS from 25 years ago now????

What a bunch of HYPOCRITES!!!!

UNBELIEVABLE!!!

What cultural history do you have from being 1/32-1/1000 native American?

Cultural history doesn't reside in blood/DNA. That's like looking at a black American's blood and telling them that they have little to no "white" culture in their blood. Culture is about rituals, folklore, recipes and family legends, not blood/DNA.

Any evidence she had any of that?

I'm about 1/12~ Comanche and literally know nothing about them or their rituals/folklore/recipes, because I was raised in suburbia.

Also that gives me a pass to rip on other people for their "cultural history".

dbl

To be technically considered African-American, one must be 1/16 th. black.
I would assume the same holds true for being Native-American.

Statistically, with 1/1024 th. Native-American DNA, Warren is LESS Native-American than the average European-White American.

Not any more than.

Benghazi was over a video.

If you like your doctor.

Russian collusion.

Kavanaugh is a rapist.

Back to SELECTIVE OUTRAGE.

a reply to: neo96

Cool.
I'm not outraged and I'm not talking about any of that.
Nice deflection though champ

a reply to: TinySickTears

That's not defection.

When Trump haters snip don't stink.

Then they get to whine.

Everyone knows that so called superiority they think they have?

DOES NOT EXIST.

That can be spun around pretty easily though. Are you outraged about the lying involved with Benghazi, Kavanaugh, Russian collusion, etc? Then why aren't you outraged about Trump lying?
If you aren't outraged about those things, then bringing them up is just deflection.
Two wrongs don't make a right. Yes, people lied about those things. That's bad.
BUT, Trump is lying too. Why is that not bad in your mind?

Maybe there's a 'Native Americans for Trump' group out there he can donate too?

a reply to: narrator

They didn't give a snip when the last guy did.

Why should I give a snip about it now?

You guys, you know what? My grandma was Dutch-Irish, and my grandpa was lesbian, that makes me quarter lesbian!

- Eric Cartman, wish I could find the video.

You don't have to if you don't want to. But, you're the one going on about "selective outrage". Yet, that's exactly what you're doing in your posts. You're outraged that people didn't get pissed when a liberal politician lied, but you're ok with giving Trump a pass for lying.

Two wrongs don't make a right.

ETA: Let's be clear, every single person who has ever been involved in politics, or has even talked about politics, gets selectively outraged about things. It's human nature. You like some things, you don't like some other things. So, pointing this out isn't a good point to argue. Yes, it happens. Now what? Shouldn't we call out people (Trump, in this particular case) for lying? I mean, there's video of him saying it. Now he's saying he didn't. Call it whatever you want, that's a lie. He needs to be called out for it.

Wasn't the rumor that this guy wasn't even Indian? We should get her to do an updated version.

ETA: Yeah, Iron Eyes Cody, the Pisano.

This whole thing is bullsnip to begin with.,

Warren is exploiting native Americans to gain political benefit.

EXACTLY what our white ancestors did.

And she wants points for it?

# her.

Neo, we don't always agree, but when you put it like that...

It does kinda sound like she did exploit that for her gain, that's mighty white of her.

I hear he's 1/1024 th. Indian...so it's all good.

That's effing rich.

Especially coming from the Trump TV thread creator.

Shall I link that LIE?

OH NOEZ! Anyting but THAT! Lmao. You mean this thread, right?

Now It All Makes Sense. Trump Doesn't Plan To Win. He's Launching A Media Empire.

That's not a LIE. Perhaps the problem here is you don't actually know what the word LIE means?

"a false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive; an intentional untruth; a falsehood."

That was a theory and I still believe it was a sound one. I don't think Team Trump expected him to win (lots of reporting to that effect) and I still am of the opinion that had he not won, he would have partnered with some people on a media venture (Ailes, Bannon, maybe O'Reilly and Hannity).

We'll never know now, he won the election and Fox News became "Trump TV" instead.

a reply to: theantediluvian

This puts all the pieces together perfectly. Trump and his inner circle of right-wing media execs know that he's not going to win the election and they're putting together a new alt-right media empire.

Since it didn't happen.

a false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive; an intentional untruth; a falsehood.
