True. There are extremist Dems just as there are extremist Repubs. Right now the extremist Republicans are in power and that will alienate everyone who is in the middle. Anyone who wants to win from now on will have to represent the rest of us, Dem and Repub. Those in the middle.

She won't run for president--she is too far left. But she does go out on a limb to protect consumers and does other good things.

Funny, the morons who think Eliz should be allowed to pollute the Senate are the same morons who thought Ted Cruz should be silenced.


How does that work, exactly?

Warren lost any and all credibility when she pretended to be Native American for personal financial gain (minority female hire at Harvard Law). She's the Rachel Dolezal of Native Americans.

For reference: Rachel Dolezal is the White woman who "claims" to be Black, despite not having any Black ancestry. When her fraud was outed, she was booted out of her jobs as NAACP chapter president and college professor, and now earns a living as a hairdresser.

McConnell used an arcane Senate rule to muzzle Elizabeth Warren. What is this, Russia? Republicans should be ashamed.
If conservatives can't speak at college campuses, what's the problem with putting a muzzle on a known liar like Pocahontas?

US Constitution


Article I, Section 5


"Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behaviour, and, with the Concurrence of two thirds, expel a Member."

Ashamed of what? He used a Senate rule perfectly within his right. The Democrats and Harry Reid should be ashamed. Reid and his cronies are the one's who changed the rule for the Nuclear option to serve their own selfish corrupt needs. Now that option is ours as well as all three branches of government to fix the mess they made out of this Country and to right the ship after decades of democratic rule.

LOL that's funny. Democrats should practice what they preach.

They should've revoked Pocahontas's speaking privileges on the Senate floor long ago. Get this lying, flame-throwing, cultural appropriator back to Massachusetts!

Leftists are largely ignorant of the Constitution. Thanks for enlightening them.

Do any of you guys and gals critical of Warren have proof that she has no Native American blood? You can't tell just from looking at someone. I once dated a girl who was 1/16th Choctaw, and you could barely tell, she looked like a regular white girl.

I bet you don't know that Rashida Jones is half black, Paul Rudd's girlfriend in I Love You Man (Quincy Jones is her dad)
