Has Warren claimed to "smoke a peace pipe on the rez"? MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #5

Did you sleep through the Senate campaign? That business got VERY ugly. nt MADem Nov 2013 #9

I remember the ugly accusations. But not any ugly realities. MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #22

The ugly accusations had to do with EW's belief that she had NA ancestry. MADem Nov 2013 #29

The RW is still harping on that one. Beacool Nov 2013 #32

This is a forum for democrats,at least it used to be. sufrommich Nov 2013 #98

Democrats = left. Unless you're saying that the 'new democrats' = right. There is only the sabrina 1 Nov 2013 #105

"Her mother was, apparently, completely mistaken." MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #33

For someone who avers so much expertise, you are conveniently devoid of information when MADem Nov 2013 #52

Which part of that disproves what her mother told her? MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #53

Since you didn't read any of the links, I will leave you to read them again. MADem Nov 2013 #62

Give it up, Manny. MADem Nov 2013 #79

Who has cut social security? What did I miss? When did that happen? MADem Nov 2013 #107

Lack of success equals lack of intent? MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #124

Saying things happened when they didn't; shit-stirring? MADem Nov 2013 #125

Allright. We'll call it a draw. MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #128

I've got all my limbs. MADem Nov 2013 #137

The only thing they have is a very nasty streak. Beacool Nov 2013 #88

The GOP wants her to run, and they think they can "briar patch" us into putting her forward. MADem Nov 2013 #95

That's a strong claim. Laelth Nov 2013 #117

No, it isn't really--the nation is far less genteel than the commonwealth when it comes to beating MADem Nov 2013 #133

I've posted a bunch of pro-Elizabeth Warren stuff MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #24

You can post positive stuff without a need to continually offend many other Democrats. Beacool Nov 2013 #25

No, you haven't. This post is characteristic of your handiwork, and you're playing a weak, MADem Nov 2013 #70

Bullshit. I actually was the original petitioner for an Elizabeth Warren group. MannyGoldstein Nov 2013 #75
