I’m jumping into a political hornet’s nest, I know, but I have to ask, if Sarah Palin had said this, would you say “right on!”?
“America’s middle class has been hammered, squeezed and chipped at for a generation now, and it can’t take it much longer,” she added. “This is what I work on. This is my life’s work. I’ve done research on it, I’ve written about it, I’ve advocated for these families. When we hit a financial crisis I went to Washington to try to work on the bank bailout and bring some transparency and accountability to it,” .
That is a direct quote from Warren during a debate with Brown. What’s wrong with that quote?
It's really not politics, but economics 101. If Sarah Palin had said that, I would have been very disappointed.
“America’s middle class has been hammered, squeezed and chipped at for a generation now, and it can’t take it much longer,”
True enough. But she has not truly been an advocate for families, but an agitator and an instigator that has supported the very destruction of it.
When we hit a financial crisis I went to Washington to try to work on the bank bailout and bring some transparency and accountability to it,” .
Which is an admission on her part that she supported TARP and a continuation of the stupidity of Dodd/Frank, the Equal Opportunity Lending Laws and the very means that forced the banking industry to make bad loans to people who could never pay them back, inflate housing prices, and enabled folks to live way beyond their means. She is one of the true trouble makers that has helped to destabilize our currency and brought us to the brink of economic collapse.
An auditor for the fed sat in front of a banking committee during the TARP hearings and told a congressman she had no idea where a trillion dollars went.
THAT is what is wrong with what she said.
Harvard law professor and former Obama administration regulator Elizabeth Warren is not serious about transparency in anything. Communists always conceal their misdeeds and agendas from the public and the useful idiots. And you know who the 'useful idiots' that Stalin was deriding? College students.
And the Occupy Wall Street crowd ...and Warren fit the bill as an Obama affilitated manipulator.
Ask her about enforcing private property via the constitution...and then you will find out exactly where she really is on "looking out for the Middle Class".
The quote sounds good, and yes, if it were someone with a conservative worldview, it would be correct and applauded.
The problem with just judging that statement is that you have to understand the underlying assumptions that the speaker is making before passing judgement on what it means.
Palin would mean that big, socialist government is the cause of the decline of the middle class, and that decreasing that influence is the solution.
Warren’s assumptions are that capitalism is the cause of the destruction of the middle class and that more government regulation and economic planning are the solution.
“That is a direct quote from Warren during a debate with Brown. What’s wrong with that quote?”
I’m guessing the part where she hasn’t debated Brown yet?
