Yeah, because this is the same exact thing. The woman lied, and she got rich off the lie. She checked off Native American on her application at Harvard, and they hired her at $400k a year.
And you can only fault the person calling her out for her lies? She isn't culpable at all? She didn't do anything wrong in your eyes? |

Jim, there's no evidence her heritage had any impact on her employment at Harvard. |

So why do you suppose, she checked that box? Are you that obtuse?
Harvard, in some kind of professor profile, made mention of it. |

You’re repeating false statements and think I should be willing to agree otherwise I’m wrong

If you don't agree with Kavanaugh's nomination at the very least pick another name off the list of 25 that you would support and say why.

That is pretty hard for anyone less than far right of center. All 25 were vetted first by both the Federalist Society and the Heritage foundation... |

I understand. But the nomination of conservative SC justices is something that comes with winning the past election. If you win you get to call the shots and try and get your picks in. I remember a past president said something to the effect of "Elections have consequences". Kind of like that. Some people can go crazy but at the end of the day he may get his pick into the SC. |

My understanding is she checked the box AFTER she was hired filling out some paperwork they use to document minority employees. The person who hired her has publicly stated they had no knowledge of any minority status and it wasn't a factor.
I think she genuinely believes she has some ancestry. This is just a political hit job to smear a woman with a pretty impressive resume. |

Kavanaugh's resume is also impressive. His political hit job will be worse. |

this is the same guy who offered $5 million donation if President Obama released “his college records and applications” and his “passport applications and records.”
did she do the work ? or are you saying they just paid her 400k for being an Indian |
