As if it weren’t enough the Democratic Massachusetts senatorial candidate and Harvard Law prof Elizabeth Warren has been exposed for faking an evidently non-existent Cherokee background, it now appears Fauxcahontas plagiarized recipes she contributed to a “Native American”-based cookbook called, oh-so-cleverly, POW WOW CHOW.
Fortnuately for Warren, it’s doubtful she will be kicked out of Harvard for this. Even given the university’s supposedly high plagiarism standards, they have a solid history of finally being helpful to the plagiarists in their midsts. But no problem. The real question is how the Mass voters will respond to Fauxcahontas now Faux Julia Childs.
This calls for a chorus of “The Great Lobachevsky” by Tom Lehrer, a Harvard man when that meant something. What? You don’t know “The Great Lobachevsky”? Listen up. You’re in for a treat.
And now, Irving Berlin honors Elizabeth Warren…. featuring Mary Martin in “I Am Indian Too.”

Lordy, haven’t seen this in decades.

Harvard seems to be the Potemkin Village of American education. Everybody who steps out of the Village into the public light is a sham–fake President of the USA, fake woman of color, fake economist.
Don’t forget the First DA/DT Supreme Court Justice.
“Faux Julia Childs.”
Again with the “Julia” thing?
Don’t knock plagarism. It’s a great resume enhancement if you aspire to run for vice president on the Democrat ticket some day. Just ask Joe Biden.
