WaPo writer posts dishonest incomplete hit piece on Warren......

This is............... disgusting................


?s=20

As Mr. Leonard points out it was over 34 years, an average of about $60,000 a year... which is perfectly normal. Viser intentionally left that out to make her look like a hypocrite who made millions off corporate interests.

1. By and Large the MSM have turned on Warren

in favor of Mayor Pete . It is amazing the power the MSM has to elevate one candidate and damage the other . In Ia and NH Mayor Pete and Elizabeth are drawing from the same group of voters . That is why Elizabeth is beginning to take him on by name.

Millionaire isn’t even that much money anymore. I’m happy for Warren if she is one. I’m unhappy that I’m not one. Not Elizabeth Warren’s fault.

Everyone is entitled to legal representation including companies declaring bankruptcies. It wasn't like she was stewing in a mash of personal and professional conflicts unlike some other lawyers associated with candidates or running for office (see the GOP).

They are doing everything they can, including paying for hit pieces like this, to end her candidacy.

Which is why we should all get behind her.

18. Chill? Big deal, she released some information she needed
Mon Dec 9, 2019, 07:33 AM

to get out there. For the most part it's old information, but she needs to get out ahead of attacks.

There's nothing damaging here except to the kind of LW nuts who see all business as corrupt by definition and imagine working with business (heck, even talking to business leaders) is proof of corruption.

As for the rest of us, we have to refuse to be influenced by this kind of idiocy. And also to not get excited when everything we hear doesn't strike us as completely complimentary.
