Someone clue me in.  After how many ever pages of this, who is she and why is she relevant in the national dialogue?

Seems like I'm the only one missing the joke here.

No, you get the joke because she is it. She's also running for Ted Kennedy's Senate seat--not the one belonging to the Mass. people, but to the swimmer.

"Whether it is "clean air, clean water, food safety, public safety, public education, public transportation, public housing, public health, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security - they don't believe in a public role, and they're sincere in their beliefs," she said.

In didn't know Pelosi was from Oklahoma, claimed to be Cherokee, and to be the first breast feeding person to take the bar exam. To be fair, though, Pelosi does have her head squarely up her @ss just like Warren.

There is more to the story. . .
Apparently she was breast-feeding the homeless while taking her bar exam.  Quite a spectacle.

Google around and read some about her.  It is (as it always is) a much more detailed and nuanced story than you can get here from us.  We deal in sound bytes and short shots for the most part.  Long involved explanations give a good case of "TEGO" to the denizens of the forum.

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Polls show Walker may be in trouble. Perhaps a few more choice posts on this fine thread can switch the momentum back in Walker's favor. Don't give up now, you've done such a good job at dredging up smile the electorate in Massachusetts doesn't care about.

Also, it's a bit amusing to read derisive posts about Warren claiming she is part Cherokee when we live in the land of the part Cherokee. Seems like everybody I talk to is part Cherokee. I'm pretty sure a few folks on this forum have previously claimed to be part Cherokee, even.

Didn't claim it until I was 19, when I found out my great-great grandmother was full blood Cherokee.  Pictures I saw of her lend me to that belief.

Do I feel entitled to a Cherokee Roll Card?  Nah.  She never registered because they lived in Kentucky, so she was one of the remaining Alabama Cherokees.  I was told I could get one.  But I see people who are completely blonde-haired and blue-eyed claim the 1/512 fraction needed to claim it and feel like..."why?"  I have at least 1/16.  I'll be proud to have that much and not worry about my place on the Dawes.

I know I have.  And my kids even have their cards!
