Warren says it's 'just wrong' to call her a socialist
The Hill ^ | 3/10/19 | Brett Samuels

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said in an interview broadcast Sunday that it's "wrong" to call her a socialist as Republican critics seek to use the label against her and other progressive Democrats running for president.

"I believe in markets. Markets that work," Warren told CBS News correspondent Ed O'Keefe in an interview that aired on "Face the Nation."

"Markets that have a cop on the beat and have real rules and everybody follows them," she continued. "I believe in a level playing field. And as long as we've got that then we will get the best out of markets because it means the people who come up with great ideas, who work hard are the ones who will prosper, not simply those who were born into wealth."

"So if you get labeled as a socialist?" O'Keefe asked.

"Well, it's just wrong," Warren responded.

Whew. Good to know. Now, is she paying back everyone she defrauded by claiming Cherokee ancestry?

She obviously doesn’t want anyone to know she’s a socialist. But she is.

Well, if socialist don’t work, then I’ll assume marxist does. Or fascist, as it pertains to crony corporatism.

Clearly, she is no free market capitalist.

Sounds like a little differentiation is going on.

OK. I’m good with that. How about Capitalist Undermining Neoliberal Twit. The abbreviation is much easier to say. I don’t want a time out.

"I believe in state ownership of the means of production and the abolition of private property!" she continued. "I'm not a socialist, I'm a communist!"

I stand corrected.

"I believe in markets. Markets that work,"

There was a market for law professors with American Indian ancestry, and that market worked wonders for Fauxcahontas.

Reminds me of the saying that "missionaries went to Hawaii to do good, and they did very well, indeed".

She’s trying to triangulate to separate herself from the lunatics.

LOL!
Actually NONE of the Dems are socialists!
The core tenet of socialism is that workers get a larger share of the profit.

Trump is doing that by controlling migration and outsourcing.
ALL the Dems oppose him.
They ALL work to keep worker’s wages down.

Bill O'Reilly once called Paul Krugman a socialist.

Krugman denied he was a socialist.

BOR restated "Okay, a quasi-socialist".

PK's retort? "Then you're a quasi-murderer."

You are absolutely correct. This is a dodge.

No politician on the left tells the truth.

It is the best sounding lie at the proper moment for the biggest selfish gain. That’s all.

“She obviously doesn’t want anyone to know she’s a socialist. But she is.”

BINGO.

That’s why she’s running for president. She wants her socialist/leftwing/commie past to be non-existent and I;m sure before she ramps up her campaign, Google will scrub her past quotes..

The only issue Warren has brought up that I am interested in is breaking up these big companies like Facebook, Google, ATT, and others. The big media and social media companies need to be broken up. In fact even Trump has talked about this and it needs to be looked at.
