Not sure, although I do know that senate republicans threatened to veto any long term appointment, including Warren. Not sure why he didn't select her as his recess appointment, or how her not attaining the position makes her any less reputable or competent.Ok. If Warren is such a sterling human being why isnt she heading up the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau? Go back and look up the quotes, I'll wait.
I think its this one:
“There is nobody in this country who got rich on their own. Nobody. You built a factory out there - good for you. But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on roads the rest of us paid for. You hired workers the rest of us paid to educate. You were safe in your factory because of police forces and fire forces that the rest of us paid for. You didn't have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory... Now look. You built a factory and it turned into something terrific or a great idea - God bless! Keep a hunk of it. But part of the underlying social contract is you take a hunk of that and pay forward for the next kid who comes along.”
The problem is Warren seems to think this means that you can just tax something until it doesnt move anymore--her actions indicate that as does her demonization of business. There are lots of reasons to dislike Warren, the problem is she not only stuck her foot in her mouth on the indian indentity thing, she doubled down on it. She looks dishonest. Thats a problem for voters whose issue research is about 10 minutes deep. Which, unfortunately, is most of them.
Sounds like she's calling for higher tax rates.:yawn::
Not sure what you're even trying to imply here, the rest of your paragraph detailing the sheer horrors of a drummed up makeshift controversy about her heritage will have next to no effect on individuals who weren't already voting for Brown.
