QuoteChelgren said Thursday he had not thought there was much difference between a degree and a certificate. He said he worked at a Southern California Sizzler in the 1980s, when he was about 19.

"I didn't see a difference when I did the review, didn't worry about," he said.

Chelgren said he doesn't mind that the information about him now has been changed.

If Liz Warren can be a Native American, why not a Sizzler Business degree?

Has anyone ever disproved Warren's claim?

thanks - there's been plenty of BS thrown about, but I didn't know if it was ever settled

Very happy that the media continues to put Republicans under the microscope and report on diddly little shite like this, avoiding anything negative about their Democrat buddies.  >:(
