Watch Elizabeth Warren give a speech to her fold, and you realize she's one of the rare Democrats who can excite her base in the same way Ted Cruz or Dr. Ben Carson can excite their own. As Politico's Katie Glueck wrote on Friday, liberals' minds may be with Hillary Clinton, but their hearts lie with Warren.
Speaking on Friday at Netroots Nation, a convention for liberal bloggers and activists, Warren got the crowd more fired up than Vice President Joe Biden was able to do the day before. (To be fair, the crowd was in a solemn mood at the time in reaction to the news of the Malaysian passenger plane crash). In her speech, Warren outlined more clearly than other Democrats the social issues that galvanize progressives. Her performance was reminiscent of a certain other young senator in 2008.
"What are our values?" Warren asked the audience, some of whom held up "Run Liz Run" signs. "What does it mean to be a progressive?"

Wow:
And the main tenet of obama’s philosophy, “I got mine. The rest of you are on your own.”

The Socialists Wish to Play God
Socialists look upon people as raw material to be formed into social combinations. This is so true that, if by chance, the socialists have any doubts about the success of these combinations, they will demand that a small portion of mankind be set aside to experiment upon. The popular idea of trying all systems is well known. And one socialist leader has been known seriously to demand that the Constituent Assembly give him a small district with all its inhabitants, to try his experiments upon.
In the same manner, an inventor makes a model before he constructs the full-sized machine; the chemist wastes some chemicals — the farmer wastes some seeds and land — to try out an idea.
But what a difference there is between the gardener and his trees, between the inventor and his machine, between the chemist and his elements, between the farmer and his seeds! And in all sincerity, the socialist thinks that there is the same difference between him and mankind!
It is no wonder that the writers of the nineteenth century look upon society as an artificial creation of the legislator’s genius. This idea — the fruit of classical education — has taken possession of all the intellectuals and famous writers of our country. To these intellectuals and writers, the relationship between persons and the legislator appears to be the same as the relationship between the clay and the potter.
Moreover, even where they have consented to recognize a principle of action in the heart of man — and a principle of discernment in man’s intellect — they have considered these gifts from God to be fatal gifts. They have thought that persons, under the impulse of these two gifts, would fatally tend to ruin themselves. They assume that if the legislators left persons free to follow their own inclinations, they would arrive at atheism instead of religion, ignorance instead of knowledge, poverty instead of production and exchange.

Elizabeth Warren’s First Commandment, which she devotedly follows: “Lie like a traitorous whore.”
The rest of her commandments are examples of Warren doing the first.
"We believe that we're responsible for the consequences if we're wrong."
Su casa es mi casa.
The media is absolutely amazing as is the profound stupidity of the American public. The media is creating, in Warren, yet another “Great Leader” right before our eyes! A total lying nonentity being elevated to Godhood!
What’s mine is mine.
What’s yours is negotiable.
“We believe in science, and that means we have a responsibility to protect this Earth.”
That is on the nonsensical level of what a self-proclaimed communist professor once told us as he was describing the differences between conservatives and liberals: “Liberals believe in freedom of the press.”
And the main tenant of the Clintons, the Pelosi’s, the Feinsteins and the Kerry’s philosophy is: I got mine. the rest of you are on their own”. Liz Warren is in the wrong party. The Democrats are greedy.
Progressive bottom line: that government is always the solution, not the problem.
Here’s my guess:
1. Noting is more important than power so you can do anything, say anything, steal anything, to get it and hold it.
2. The truth is whatever you can convince others it is, so if you say something over and over it becomes true.
3. We believe in freedom of speech for anyone who agrees with us. For those who don’t, we believe in the IRS.
4. Women should get the same pay as men unless they work in the White House.
5. Money in politics is bad unless it is our money, therefore, corporations are not people unless they are our corporations.
6. You can help people by giving them things with no strings attached.
7. God is just a nice guy but nothing special.
8. Abortion is considered a women’s health issue so get over it.
9. Climate change which used to be global warming which used to be a coming ice age is real and we’re all going to die unless we ride bicycles.
10. George Bush is the anti-Christ. Oh, but that can’t be since we really don’t believe in Christ. My bad. Okay, so he’s Hannibal Lector.
11.Iraq was a bad war but Afghanistan was the good war. Oh, but that can’t be because all war is terrible. My bad.

The Basic Tenets of Conservative Party
1. Principal of Subsidiarity – Government works best at the local level. The closer the control of government is to the people, the more interest citizens hold in political proceedings and operations.
2. American Exceptionalism: Conservatives believe that America is a country of a distinguished founding, historical experiences and a unique path to the future. We do not take lightly these characteristics. Thus, we do not believe that American institutions should be imposed upon nations of dissimilar origins and experiences.
3. Government cannot legislate a perfect life for its citizens. Government’s role is to make life tolerable and to allow citizens to achieve their best. Legislation has limited ability to change our true social condition. Politicians have unethically preached to the public they have a right to steady economic betterment.
4. Citizens have a contract with the past, the present and the future to:
a. Preserve the best of our ancestors and change only that which leads to a
better civil and social existence.
b. Voluntarily assist those less prosperous.
c. Conserve natural resources for our posterity
5. Government should not “do.” Government must have limited intrusion in the marketplace. Government actions should pertain to fair and just competition.
6. The Federal government has reduced the citizens responsibility in life by overextending its participation in education, economics, food and housing.
7. Taxation, a free grant from the citizen to the government, has become extortion and the two national parties have used taxation as a means to create division among the citizens of the United States. Government re-distribution of wealth creates a covetous nature in the recipients. Spending of citizens ethically and legally earned money and consuming our posterities resources are not signs of a virtuous political organization.
8. Conservatism has been mistakenly defined as a philosophy of avarice and consumerism. Nothing could be farther from the truth, as conservatives believe that success is to be shared in a voluntary manner with poor and less fortunate. The primary benefits of charity is ascribed to the voluntary donor and the recipients of material goods from a central authority show no gratitude.
9. Those who believe that redistribution of wealth is an entitlement will themselves cause detriment to their posterity due to a lack of restraint much like consumerists believe our natural resources are purely for present consumption.

Liztard.....***why did you lie about being an indian so you could get a scholarchip to college? criminal fraud... just like obama...
***why do you make $375000 for a one day a week school year (9 month)job..and then bash other wealthy people...

WHY....BECAUSE.... YOU ARE ANOTHER IVY LEAGUE LIMO LIBTARD ....LIBTARD FRAUD
This women could be our next president that’s scary.
You are working on the premise that the media is "smart" and knows what is going on. I believe they are just as stupid as the idiots they are trying to pull around by the nose ring. But I agree with the spirit of your opinion, 100%.
Like Obama, and unlike Hilary, she’s a true believer in socialism, and in her messiahship. It’s a powerful, effective and dangerous combination.
Thanks for that quote from Bastiat. I’ve never seen it before. Outstanding, and so true.
Since there have been 0 repercussions for her fraudulently claiming to be an American Indian I guess the 92 million folks out of the workforce can check the box on their next application and expect to be rewarded with a cushy job?
