Warren was honored Sunday by the ACLU in Beverly Hills along with Participant's Jim Berk, Cyndi Lauper and Cameron Strang



Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, regarded by many progressive Democrats as their party's alternative to Hillary Clinton, told attendees at an ACLU gala in Beverly Hills on Sunday that "economic opportunity is slipping further and further out of reach" for average Americans.

She said bluntly: "We have to face it: The game is rigged in Congress."

Full blown SOCIALIST COMMIES running for 2016. Has the campaign begun?

"In too many instances — whether it's raising the minimum wage or appointing noncorporate lawyers to federal judgeships — the playing field in Washington is tilted against working Americans," Warren said.

The RATS goal is to complete the destruction of American Capitalism that Zero started.

The game is rigged in Congress? And a Democrat should know. The Hollywood Reporter went to the right source for that story.

I refuse to click on the link. Did the Hollyweird Reporter really use an apostrophe to denote the plural of "participant"?

Why didn't they spell Beverly Hills, Beverly Hill's?

Well, I guess she should not be a part of it, if it is rigged!

She should make like a tree and LEAVE!

I fear Elizabeth Warren running for president.

Just on “style points” or presentation, she is a much better speaker than Hillary. She is more passionate, charismatic can we say, than Hillary.

If she runs, she may well give Hillary a run for her money.

Nobody will say emperors have no clothes. In Hillary’s case, nobody will ever say that she is a terrible speaker, and a lousy politician. Nobody will say that she has gotten to where she is only because of her husband.

I fear Elizabeth Warren because of rumblings among liberal Democrats that the Clintons are not liberal enough for them. And this ties in with how the Democrat party has been co-opted by the left in recent years.

The Clintons time may well have come and gone. We’ll see.

I think Warren's biggest electoral vulnerability is her own damning words, in which she publicly claims to have created the looney, juvenile, business destroying, socially disruptive, disease-laded, out of control, intellectually bankrupt, philosophically incoherent, America-hating, unsanitary, disgusting, left-wing extremist temper-tantrum movement Occupy Wall Street:

“I created much of the intellectual foundation for what they do,” she says. “I support what they do.”

Conservatives need to endlessly tie her to Occupy Wall Street, recapping the horrific images of its appalling behavior:

I’m sure Lieawatha has said the system is rigged, too. She would know, flipping foreclosed homes for big bucks and teaching one class at Harvard for three hundred grand after telling them she is a (blond haired, blue eyed) minority.

Harpish squaw know how to play that rigged system like no one’s business.

According to BuzzFeed News her net worth at the end of 2011 was $14.5 million. Hmm. Looks like the squaw made lots of wampum. Another rich white liberal who thinks she’s in touch with the “common” folk. I hope the Dems nominate this loon.

Maybe ManBearPig should run again. He could bring back Kerry as his running mate.

They could kiss on SNL and pronounce their fag sex for each other.

Wasn’t there a thread on FR earlier about how scientists have discovered a virus that makes people stupid? We should probably quarantine everyone who attended this gala to try to stop the spread.

Let’s see... If cigarette taxes deter smoking... Then income taxes deter working...

The problem almost always is government. Picking winners and losers in the economy. ‘Oh, look, you earn 18,400 or less, here, let’s feed you, house you, give you health insurance, forbid the charging of CRV, exempt you from no burn days, handle your car issues that is preventing it from passing smog...’

‘Oh, look, you earn 19,000 or more. You get nothing.’

Wonder who is going to be the idiot that goes ‘Gosh, I’m doing so much better than the guy who’s earning 600 less than me...’
