Elizabeth Warren – On why she classified herself as a Native American “I listed myself in the directory in the hopes that it might mean that I would be invited to a luncheon, a group something that might happen with people who are like I am.

Obama Campaign - The Obama campaign has a cringe-inducing propaganda slideshow called “The Life of Julia” intended to illustrate how the Obama Administration's policies will give government help to a young woman as she is educated, works, starts a family and retires.

In other news, a campaign fundraiser with George Clooney raised 12 million dollars.
