Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

Here's something special for a Friday morning, Lawrence O'Donnell's interview with Elizabeth Warren.
I just hope all of the barn coat wearin', pick-up truck driving,construction workers, transportation workers, police officers and firefighters who voted for Scott Brown because he was "just like them" hear how he voted on these jobs bills. My husband is in construction and he says they all listen to Puss Limbaugh and think that Socialist politics means your tax dollars go to lazy crack heads! They don't get that they are being raped by Wall Street, Corps and Banks. I'm feeling good about Warren because she talks straight and is warm and approachable. Martha just couldn't pull it off in 2010.
I hope people remember how Scott Brown responded to Warren publicly.
I thought she was quick on her feet when she said she did not take her clothes off to pay for her college fees. Brown posed naked and that was good enough for getting votes, along with the truck?
How low do we have to go to relate to the right wing "leaders/legislators?"
Thanks Gryphen for keeping races in front of us. Maria Cantwell in Washington and Feinstein in California are in need of support as well.
I'm glad to see that Elizabeth Warren is not falling into the trap of complacency like Martha Coakley did, just because she's currently sitting on a lead in the polls.
She is the champion of working people, even those who commonly vote for Republicans like Scott Brown who vote against legislation that would benefit them. That's because they use cute little labels like socialism, nanny state, communism, etc. to put a negative spin on such legislation. They also know there are gullible souls who fall for the okey doke just because there is an R beside the politican's name.
Warren is just a miracle -- appearing now when we really really really need her (and other politicians with her characteristics) -- like smarts, education, mental health, and an understanding of the 99%. Plus a track record of actually helping! Wow! What a delight, and thank you, G, for showing us this clip.
I agree with the other commenter who asks us to support Feinstein also. I've watched her for years, and she's another one I would follow anywhere.
I'm a proud citizen of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and I'll be voting for Elizabeth Warren! That woman has the chops to run for President someday; mark my words.
The big danger to the repub party is that Elizabeth Warren could become the darling of the tea party. I mean really, when you cut through all their bullshit it becomes evident that the sane ones among them are really Warren's best friends. She's right on message for them! And they know it and they hate it. the hope is in the chance that they will grow up a little before the election.
Ms. Warren for Senate in 2012 and for President in 2016! This woman has both brains and a realistic world view. (I refuse to use the words common sense, whether written in two words or one. SP and her cohorts have run that term into the ground beyond anything comprehensible.) A "Go Warren GO!" slogan does have a good ring to it, and I shall use it.
9 comments on this blog about the woman who should become the next president and has the most straight forward on message ideas for a fix for america? Americans are still stupid fucking assholes who aren't getting it yet.
Well, we all know how the repubs. have no time for intelligent women, so Warren had better be prepared. They prefer air-heads like Bachmann and Palin. In my view, Elizabeth Warren has a quality neither of them posess, INTELLIGENCE, plus a healthy dose of self respect. There is a lady a person could have a real conversation with.

More babble from Wasilla....Is this the new FAUX news talking point?
Warren will get my vote, for surah. She's wicked nice. Wicked, an adverbial regional term.
Having lived for about five years in Dorchester. a section of Boston, in the 70s, I loved Lawrence O'Donnell putting on his Boston accent. If you say you live in Dorchester, the inquirer will ask where, St. Anne's? St. Bridgets? No matter your religion. The parish distinguished your neighborhood.
Cultural regionalism are what makes our country great.
Warren in the senate will make Massachusetts and our country greater.
This holiday season, will we be hearing carols to the tune of "Frosty the Snowman" changed with the words "Frothy Santorum..."?
ReplyDeleteIt would be so cheery in the department stores...

Can we clone Professor Warren? PLEASE?
ReplyDeleteShe's one hell of a woman, knows her stuff, and is quick on her feet. We need more like her in politics!
