B-Man Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 THEY DON’T CALL HER LIEAWATHA FOR NOTHING: Elizabeth Warren Falsely Suggests She Couldn’t Go to College Because She Couldn’t Afford to Apply. “What she fails to mention is that she did go to college… She went to George Washington University… on a debate scholarship. Why was this little factoid left out of her tweet or her video?” Because she’s a lying liar who lies. What is it about lefties — see, e.g, Hillary, Gary Hartpence, Warren Wilhelm Jr./Bill DeBlasio, etc. — that they feel have to make up a bio? Is it just that they know, deep down, that they’re horrible people and want to substitute a better version of themselves? . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Fake religion from Pete Buttigieg by Paul Mirengoff Original Article Pete Buttigieg has tried to carve out a niche among Democratic presidential hopefuls as the candidate who is comfortable talking about religion. Unfortunately, he’s only comfortable trying to use religion as a means of beating conservatives, especially religious ones, over the head. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Gal Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Money for Lizzy starting to dry up? Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) emailed her supporters this morning, urging them to donate more as the fourth fundraising quarter — and the year — comes to a close. "So far this quarter, we’ve raised a little over $17 million," the email says. "That’s a good chunk behind where we were at this time last quarter." This is true; Warren's campaign raised $24.6 million in the third quarter, second to only Sen. Bernie Sanders' (I-Vt.) campaign, which brought in over $25 million. </snip> 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll read the article after I post this, but that was my snarky argument about a year ago — probably in some pot legalization thread. Declare that we lost the “war on drugs”, then reallocate all those resources to making an import chain to gov’t run distribution centers. Hell, do it Chinese style and buy the land in the producing countries to cut out the cartels. Then tax the frick out of the stuff and prosecute anyone who tries to sell it cheap on the inevitable black-market.

B-Man Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 The Genealogy of Free Stuff: The Trump Card Original Article On Friday the Wall Street Journal ran an extra-long and remarkable editorial about the agenda of Elizabeth Warren (“Elizabeth Warren Has a Plan, Oh My“), which is so far beyond extravagant that “socialism” seems an inadequate adjective. She makes Bernie Sanders look cautious by comparison. As the Journal put it in the lede: “[A]s we discovered after a tour of her 60-some policy papers, Ms. Warren is proposing a transformation of American government, business and life that exceeds what the socialist dreamers of a century ago imagined.” Warren is not simply offering lots and lots of free stuff (Medicare for All, free college, higher Social Security benefits, .

The hundreds of millions of Americans who somehow, as if by magic, avoided the pitfalls of buying illicit drugs on a street corner from a guy named Scubby 2Rox are the real problem. In fact, let's sit in judgement of the non-meth heads and expunge the criminal records of the drug crazed hordes. Why on earth would we want the non-meth-heads to know someone may have been incarcerated for a drug crime? What is there to be afraid of?

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 ...Lizzie "on the loose".......... Warren’s ‘fantasy’ wealth tax: Here’s all the programs 2020 Dem claims to cover with funding trick By Tyler Olson | Fox News As the progressive wing of the Democratic Party pushes an agenda that asks millionaires and billionaires to pay higher taxes to fund ambitious social programs, 2020 hopeful Elizabeth Warren has made an unprecedented tax proposal on accumulated wealth a centerpiece of her campaign. And nearly a year into her presidential bid, that wealth tax has become a central funding mechanism for a host of major policy proposals — despite lingering doubts about its constitutionality and whether it can generate the cash flow she promises. Warren has connected the wealth tax to no fewer than eight separate initiatives: Student debt cancellation Universal childcare Universal pre-k $800 billion in new federal funding for public schools Tuition-free college $50 billion for Historically Black Colleges and Universities $1 trillion for "Medicare-for-all" Tackling the opioid crisis https://www.foxnews.com/politics/warrens-wealth-tax-heres-all-the-programs-2020-dem-claims-to-cover-with-funding-trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Elizabeth Warren is nothing more than an old, frustrated school teacher complaining in the staff lounge on her lunch hour. The majority of her proposals are nothing more than a rewording of the typical teacher’s union cries for expanding the ‘state’ run education machine by extending government funding on either end of our already severely underperforming K12 system.
