Elizabeth Warren is a grandstanding phony (WaPo WTH?)
WaPo ^ | Ed Rogers

Posted on 02/12/2017 7:02:30 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) was right to invoke Rule 19 against Sen Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) for her personal harangue against her “friend and colleague” Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.). Dignity is flowing out of Washington and Warren is doing more than her part as she desperately tries to prove she isn’t just another tiresome Hillary Clinton. What a pretentious, grandstanding phony.

Warren is likely running for president in 2020, and she is trying to rally the embittered left and Sen. Bernie Sanders’s (I-Vt.) crowd to her side. And her stunt disparaging now-Attorney General Sessions on the Senate floor, plus her tweet threatening that “If Jeff Sessions makes even the tiniest attempt to bring his racism, sexism & bigotry into @TheJusticeDept, he’ll hear from all of us” is a little much, even allowing for a shallow, pandering candidate’s sad attempts to crowd into the news cycle. Is Warren really the guardian of all that is fair and just and the defender of the oppressed? Since when?

Speaking as a proud Alabamian, trust me when I say that people from the state hate being screamed at about being bigots by someone from Massachusetts. This is nothing new. Anytime the left feels backed into a corner by Republicans or are having trouble defending their own actions, they yell “racism” — especially if their target happens to be a white, Southern, Christian Republican. They go straight to race quicker than you can say “Pocahontas.”

I saw their payroll, every employee makes $247,500 a year, I think it said the budget is 6 billion a year? Super dangerous bureaucracy, accountable to literally no one, they need to shut it down.

When the leftist media stops being leftist is when I really get skeptical. Knowing the media is so agenda driven, they only abandon their leftist positions in support of another leftist position. It’s simpler to ignore them altogether.

“Democrats should keep looking for someone authentic”

Former Virginia governor Jim Webb could have beaten Donald Trump in a heartbeat, but only radical socialists need apply in the smaller-tent Democrat Party that actively attacks mainstream voters, including its own rapidly shrinking white membership, instead of trying to attract them.

The new Democrat Party has obviously decided to double-down on everything that caused them to lose in 2016, turning themselves into a splinter party of radicals far outside the mainstream. Yes, this strategy will cement their hardcore leftist supporters, but will drive away the independents, the unaffiliated, and the undecided.

The new Democrat Party stands for nothing except being the anti-Trump and anti-white party. They have no other message, no other platform, at least none that they actually articulate. That strategy lost them the 2016 election and it will lose them the 2018 election: giant rallies like President Trump’s translate into votes, riots and demonstrations by hardcore leftists and anarchists do not.

The hardcore Left has worked diligently for years to take over the media and academia...and all to no avail.

They must be devastated to realize that even with the media and universities (and all those American voters they have propagandized), they still can't win.

Ha ha.

throughout this term.

I’d be totally exhausted after all the pretending to be outraged these people have to do.

Warren needs immediate intense psychological help. She sees things that aren’t there. She has paranoid delusions that the GOP will enslave the left and force everyone to be a Christian. In her world everything thing is racist, homophobic, etc... Nothing is real in her mind.

That describes the vast majority of liberals
