LANET...... she is done..... move on..

Right now the GAO is finding out how much Federal Funding Harvard received based on her bogus claims. Get it?

Harvard has already said that it relies on the faculty to report their heritage honestly .....Get it?

Warren has stated that she only found out a few weeks ago that Harvard reported her as a minority....... Get it?

You obviously feel strongly about this issue....... but if you were honest you would admit that Warren !ied and has been caught.....get it?

She runs from reporters.... Get it?

or maybe you are paid to do this............. either way, you are rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

BROWN gave a woman's contraceptive decision to her EMPLOYER, making him the SANTORUM of MA.
Santorum ridiculed Romney for not being extreme enough to take a woman's contraceptive decision...not Pretty Boy Brown...he rolled every MA woman over in the clover.

Warren's exploitation of AMerican Indians will be her undoing.

If you vote for a GOTP Senator, you give the PARTY-OF-NO a weapon with which they can filibuster all progress.
You'll be voting to undermine a real recovery.

Don't be cowed into accepting scraps from the 1% -- this government was designed to serve the people.
Make your vote count.
Put an end to the GOTP.

Why would anyone in Mass. that is supporting Obama also be supporting Brown? The diffrences are so wide?

That is what the story says I think it was 24% who said they would vote for obama wald also vote for Brown, did I read it wrong?

oh, this is the start of the "Dems bailing on Fauxahontas" stories, meaning she has been another debacle for the dems and Brown is looking like he will keep his seat. HA

It is all so unfortunate. Elizabeth Warren went to Washington, put together a wonderful consumer financial agency to help the middle class....and was turned away and sent packing by Obama on the advice of his treasury secretary Tim Geithner and Wall Street banks who did not want her. They didn't even fight for her nomination.... Geithner has made no secret of his dislike for her. So now she's trying for a Senate seat. That's politics.

We already have an agency for consumer protection--why should the taxpayer fund another bloated government agency? We need more federal workers to employ? pay for their pensions and health care? pay for their millions for their conferences in Vegas and Hawaii? how about we leave that to the agency for Consumer Affairs? Obama said it was Warren's idea to form another agency--Whoopie!!! Can the tax payer pay anymore? What's going to happen when these people run out of using our money?

[CJHAN]

05:25 AM on 05/29/2012

We do? where was it when people where bilked out of there savings and there homes? "What's going to happen when these people run out of using our money" ill bet you thought taht was really clever fact is Ill bet the comapany that you work for would not exist witout taxpayer funds.

[EvgenyLibek]

You obviously don't understand what protection consumers were lacking.
You can't even answer the following questions:
1) Why should the taxpayer fund highways?
2) Why is it in our interest to have a government which works for the people (rather than the corporations)?

Chances are you did not find your way into a secular junior high.
Don't blame yourself.
Just get yourself to a public library, and demand asylum.

ya, maybe he knew something we didn't.....she is all liberal blather with nothing substantive behind it.

[EvgenyLibek]

06:22 AM on 05/29/2012

President Obama knows a great deal that you don't.
So does Elizabeth Warren.
It's plainly obvious are not aware how much substance she has behind her!!

The good news is, both these DEMs have used their knowledge to help protect Americans -- like you (and, your basic awareness of the circumstances was never a prerequisite).

Meanwhile, Moderate Republicans, like Romney and Brown, have been terrible for Massachusetts -- Brown has to distance himself from Romney, and Romney has to distance himself from Brown.
That's why the inside polls show Warren is gaining the upper hand (and just wait until things heat up -- her intelligence will shine through: anybody familiar with her knows, she's easily the best candidate in America today).

I believe it is true ..... the Money Party does not want Elizabeth Warren to win. It is the People Party that supports her.

MONEY PARTY: 100% of Republicans 75% of Democrats
PEOPLE PARTY: 25% of Democrats, and 1 Socialist

Warren is still winning.
Brown has been bad for Mass.
Voters are not pleased that Brown has aligned himself with Bush, Palin, and that former failure known as Governor Romney.

It's hard to believe someone could come along and seriously embarrass our already embarrassing political process....but Warren managed to do it with the incredible Cherokee debacle.

She lied years ago in an attempt to game the affirmative action system for her own benefit. No one was paying attention (who would to such a BS issue?) other than the breathlessly complicit higher education crowd.

Well when you run for national office these things come back to haunt you, and thank goodness this one has.

Such cynicism and dishonesty make her unfit to serve...period

[torii]

and her work creating another bloated government agency in the hopes that she would be appointed to run it, is disgusting. When Obama appointed someone else, she runs back to Mass. to see if she can jump on the gravy train. How many other agencies are the taxpayers going to have to pay for so that they can all go to Vegas or Hawaii for their vacations on our dime. At some point, Americans must dig into the fraud, waste and abuse that these people (who are supposed to representing us) are perpetrating on us-- the taxpayer. Unless everyone speaks up, it will continue. It's very easy to email, write or fax your senators and representatives to stop the madness. Most won't do it, so guess we get what we deserve.

Harvard is the biggest corporation in MA.

She who wants Wall Street “held accountable” is accountable for two elite law schools advertising her minority status. She who accuses Wall Street of gaming the financial system at least collaborated with, and perhaps benefited from, the often absurd obsession with “diversity.”

The Native American thing was important to her at one time. Why is she playing it down now? I hope she has not become ashamed of her heritage.

What heritage??? You are joking, I hope.

If "Spreading Bull" wants to win, she must distance herself from her old boss. He is toxic.

I'm glad she won't be taking my advice.
