A day after Scott Brown supporters and staffers were caught on video taunting Elizabeth Warren supporters with tomahawk chop gestures and war cries, the Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation would like a stronger reaction from the candidate. Chief Bill John Baker emailed a statement to reporters that reads, in part:

"The use of stereotypical “war whoop chants” and “tomahawk chops” are offensive and downright racist. It is those types of actions that perpetuate negative stereotypes and continue to minimize and degrade all native peoples."

...

"We need individuals in the United States Senate who respect Native Americans and have an understanding of tribal issues. For that reason, I call upon Sen. Brown to apologize for the offensive actions of his staff and their uneducated, unenlightened and racist portrayal of native peoples."

Warren, of course, probably isn’t going to make the “racism” claim herself. When reporters asked if she was “appalled as a Native American,” she replied artfully that “I am appalled as an American,” reports the Herald. Brown said after the video started circulating that he “It is certainly something that I don’t condone” but it sounds like Baker wants a stronger repudiation.

What we need are people that lies are not second nature to. She needs to be made fun of. And i hardly think you were offended. Don't try to come off as all full of character or sunthin. You've been spouting some media inspired lies yourself bud.

Scott Brown is an Elected United States Senator ...

Scott Brown Says He ‘Regrets’ His Staff’s ‘Unacceptable’ Behavior

“Senator Brown has spoken to his entire staff – including the individuals involved in this unacceptable behavior – and issued them their one and only warning that this type of conduct will not be tolerated. As we enter the final stretch of this campaign, emotions are running high, and while Senator Brown can’t control everyone, he is encouraging both sides to act with respect. He regrets that members of his staff did not live up to the high standards that the people of Massachusetts expect and deserve.”

Guess who else doesn't LOOK Cherokee ... ? Bill John Baker, the Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation

http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/chasc5/Chief-Bill-John-Baker2.jpg

"The Cherokee Nation is disappointed in and denounces the disrespectful actions of staffers and supporters of Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown," says Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation Bill John Baker in a statement. "The conduct of these individuals goes far beyond what is appropriate and proper in political discourse. The use of stereotypical "war whoop chants" and "tomahawk chops" are offensive and downright racist. It is those types of actions that perpetuate negative stereotypes and continue to minimize and degrade all native peoples."

"We need individuals in the United States Senate who respect Native Americans and have an understanding of tribal issues," he concluded. "For that reason, I call upon Sen. Brown to apologize for the offensive actions of his staff and their uneducated, unenlightened and racist portrayal of native peoples."

So is a racial slur really a slur if it's directed to someone who's not the target of a slur?

Disgusting. But then that's what we have come to expect from the tea party knownothings.

The Cherokee Nation has demanded an apology from Brown. Looks like his ugliness has backfired.

I'm not happy with Brown. I feel he's a liar. She's just so brazen about it. And that remark..'You didn't build it'. Freakin' marxist. We need to keep people like her OUT of congress. We need to turn this mess around before it's too late. I just hope we can survive that jackass' vengence from Nov 2 for you libs to Jan 2013.

It will be fun to see how Brown responds to the demand by the Cherokee that he apologize, since he's been playing the race card for the past 3 months, pretending to champion them.

Looks like he's been outted as the crypto racist he is, down deep.

That's not my point Cigar.
I don't claim to be able to discern an individual's heritage by looking at them...But I also don't run around calling myself French despite my great grandmother immigrating from France and my own decision to take French in high school so as to be able to better communicate with her.
If you can't see the way this woman has bastardized a POSSIBLE trace of Cherokee heritage that has been determined to amount to 1/32 at best if it exists at all, to influence public opinion if not cash in via scholarships and school admittance (which has yet to be determined), then you clearly don't have the same respect for the heritage that those in your vid seem to have.

Just like you, the Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation is a moron. He should be concerned about the Democrat lying about being an Indian rather than what some staffers do fooling around. This is just more liberal lies and deceit.

Besides, jumping around and making Indian noises is nothing new. Your Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation should not get his pink loincloth up in a bunch. People make fun of the Irish and the Italians all the time. Why should the heathen savages be any different.

Your thread is stupid, moron.
