Elizabeth Warren On Warpath To Shut Down Government

[Locutus]

When Republicans do something, it’s bad. When Democrats do the very same thing, it becomes good. That’s true of everything else, so why not this?

Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Wednesday sought to rally opposition to the $1.1 trillion government funding bill, spearheading a revolt on the left that has put her influence in the Democratic Party to the test.
​

The Massachusetts liberal pleaded for House Democrats to withhold support for a government funding package due to a provision she said would change the Dodd-Frank financial reform law to let “Wall Street gamble with taxpayer money…”
​

Weird. I thought her people were in favor of gambling? They’ve got casinos all over the place.


Still, it’s unclear whether the opposition from Warren, Frank and others will persuade House Democrats to risk a government shutdown by voting against the bill.


I hope they don’t chicken out just because it would make them look like huge hypocrites. That’s the whole point of politics, isn’t it? Say one thing, do another. Criticize something when your opponent does it, then do the same thing and concoct some lame-brained excuse. Dumb down everything for the low-info or no-info voter. It’s all part of the job.

Shut it down, Fauxcahontas. Shut it all down. Remind us all how little we really need you.

She's not even 1/32 Cherokee. She was never able to prove that she had one drop of Native American blood in her. However they were able to prove that her ancestor was in the Tennessee Militia and helped round up Native Americans and sent them on the Trail of Tears west.


She's just another rich old white person Native American wannabee that stepped on Native American rights to get her job at Harvard.

And it looks like she is an obstructionist.

Is it possible the members of CC will pay attention to this; have a discussion, a revolt even ?
Mehhhhhhhh, probably not.

We have our own nutbars to be concerned about.
Or, aboot.

If it does, pack up you family, your guns and head for the hills.

It is the end of western civilization.

The problem with a victim culture is that so many people want to join the ranks of victimhood that eventually you run short of oppressors. As I say in my new book .............. Elizabeth Warren is the whitest white since Frosty the Snowman fell in a vat of Wite-Out, but a dubious claim to be one 32nd Cherokee was enough to persuade Harvard Law School to promote her as their first "woman of color". No wonder so many Democrats prefer her to Hillary: The first "woman of color" in the Oval Office! The first Cherokee!
If you're not fortunate enough to have a great-great-great-grandmother who's listed as Cherokee in the online transcription of an 1894 marriage application, what do you do?

The LAST thing we need is another stupid, privileged, entitled community organizer in the White House.

Where is Teddy Roosevelt when we need him?

Or John McCain.

Americans seem to love bailing out Wall Street. Can't get enough of it. Corporations are people too, they need welfare. Why stop now?

Wow - she was right on wasn't she? Unfortunately, cronyism is too imbedded. I can't even think of how they would go about changing things. The fact is that the average joe who might actually make a difference, can't afford to run.


Trying to get a law passed that wouldn't allow unions or corporations to make political contributions really wouldn't go anywhere either considering the individuals who are in there now. Limiting terms, not unlike the President might help. I dunno....


How could they change things in a timely fashion?

Looks like she chose to be an outsider.

Elizabeth Warren was told to stay quiet, but she didn’t – and it’s paying off - The Washington Post

In her book released this year, Sen. Elizabeth Warren recounted a dinner she had with President Obama’s chief economic adviser, Larry Summers, in April 2009, when Warren was the outspoken chairman of a congressionally appointed panel probing the government’s response to the financial crisis.

Larry leaned back in his chair and offered me some advice. ... He teed it up this way: I had a choice. I could be an insider or I could be an outsider. Outsiders can say whatever they want. But people on the inside don’t listen to them. Insiders, however, get lots of access and a chance to push their ideas. People — powerful people — listen to what they have to say. But insiders also understand one unbreakable rule. They don’t criticize other insiders.

I had been warned.​

Warren ignored the warning.

And if the past few weeks are any indication, she can operate as an insider without giving her up outsider credentials. She’s remained outspoken, but has become even more influential. She hasn't stopped throwing bombs at the rich and powerful — and causing trouble for the White House — but she's won a spot in Senate leadership, changed the shape of congressional debates over financial regulation and continued to draw widespread attention as a potential presidential candidate.​
