Indian delegates seek sit-down with Elizabeth Warren
Tribal activist:‘Shame on her’
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Elizabeth Warren can’t escape her Cherokee heritage controversy even at this gathering of loyal Democrats, as a contingent of skeptical American Indian delegates — including the great-grandson of Geronimo — are inviting Warren to a meeting tomorrow to explain her ancestry claims.
“I think she owes us that, she owes the Native American community here at least that,” said Stephen Lewis, a member of the Gila River Indian community. “That would go a long way in dispelling that question.”
The Truth Squad paid a visit to a gathering of American Indian delegates to ask their feelings about the Massachusetts Democratic U.S. Senate challenger, and many of them expressed anger that Warren listed herself as an American Indian minority in law school directories without any proof.
“If you are native, there is no doubt, and if one has to research to try and ascertain if they are Native American, I would have great concerns with that and I think naturally I would just wonder if that was a vehicle she would want to use to her benefit,” said Frank LeMere, an American Indian activist of the Nebraska Winnebago Tribe. “If that is the case, shame on her.”

This fake Indian is the perfect representation of the Democrat party. All lies.

I would love to see these Cgherokees do the Tomohawk Chop–which they detest– while Elizebeth War-whoop is speaking. Would the PC Dems dare toss them out on the street?

Pardon me, but my worry is that Warren will hope some of that bailout cash will change hands and the the various American Indian councils will say, “We’re satisfied with Ms. Warren’s claim as to ancestry.” I don’t want that to happen but it is a possibility.
Of course, more heat on Warren’s ancestry means less heat on Obama’s record.

One must have honor in order to feel shame. No chance of Fauxcahontas indulging in a shamefest.

There’s a town called Cherokee, NC and I wouldn’t be surprised to see some of the residents pay Squaw Warren a visit.

If the native American activists and delegates truly practice what they preach, then they will call Fauxcahontas to the carpet. And further more, make a big stink if she continues to disrespect their honor by disregarding their calls for a pow-wow.

Will they say she speaks with forked tongue or do they use some sort of PC talk?

I don’t think a meeting will matter, she’s a democrat they live to lie.
I would like to see them condemn her publicly and then send a lettr to the DNC demanding she retract or apologize, and just keep hounding her over and over again like they do republicans.

If she lied ( which I have no doubt about), shouldn’t she be forced to resign???

The Herald’s comments section is downright hostile to Warren.
I had to blink to make sure it really was the Boston Herald.
