Last Friday, she released four years of tax returns. Over those four years, Warren and her husband, another Harvard Law prof, averaged $300,000 more than Sen. Brown and his spouse, a TV anchor. In 2009, the Warrens made $981,000 vs. the Browns' $249,000.
Even the Globe had to admit that Warren was "in the top 1 percent of earners" - ironic, considering her bragging that she provided the "intellectual foundations" of Occupy Wall Street.
As recently as January, Warren was still crying poor, saying on MSNBC: "I realize there are some wealthy individuals - I'm not one of them - but some wealthy individuals who have a lot of stock portfolios."
No, she has mutual-fund portfolios. Her financial disclosures put her worth between $4.6 and $14.5 million.
Well, being middle class is "not about a number," she told one reporter. "It's about a place in your heart."

Martha Coakley: Too Immoral for Teddy Kennedy's Seat
In Tuesday's primary election, Massachusetts Democrats chose as their Senate nominee a woman who kept a clearly innocent man in prison in order to advance her political career.
Martha Coakley isn't even fit for the late Teddy Kennedy's old seat. (What is it about this particular Senate seat?)
During the daycare/child molestation hysteria of the '80s, Gerald Amirault, his mother, Violet, and sister, Cheryl, were accused of raping children at the family's preschool in Malden, Mass., in what came to be known as the second-most notorious witch trial in Massachusetts history.

Harvard Law School currently has only one tenured minority woman, Gottlieb Professor of Law Elizabeth Warren, who is Native American. The racial makeup of the HLS Faculty has been an issue before as well: in 1989, Harvard dismissed Weld Professor of Law Derrick A. Bell after 18 years of teaching because the noted expert on race and law refused to end his leave in protest of the absence of minority women on HLS faculty.â€

Guess the guessin is over. Wonder what real Native American remained on the reservation while she was living large. Affirmative action indeed.

Her Indian name (the woo woo kind) is Spreading Bull.

Even they realize that scrubbing it won't do any good with Internet page archiving.

Blood quantum is a very interesting debate. The wiki on it gives a pretty good outline of how it works.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_quantum_laws#Tribes_requiring_1.2F32_degree_blood_quantum_for_membership
The problem here is not the percentage she may or may not have (in my mind) but the hypocrisy of her comments. My mother's family has always had lore of Native American heritage and I have high cheekbones. Big whoop. My fathers family all 'look Jewish' does that make me a Jewish Indian? Or should we look at the genealogical records to determine my Heinz 57 makeup?
This is exactly why we should not have quotas or set asides. Ability not affirmative action should be the mainstay.
Dr. King said: “I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.â€
I think we can fairly well access the content of Dizzy Lizzy's Cherokee Character ~ EPIC FAIL

This is the same seat filled by the Chappaquiddick channel swimmer. The electorate there seemingly only care about the agenda, not the character of the electee who is carrying it out.
