She's insulting minorities as voting against their self interests. Like they're not informed voters

Sounds like she wanted to take an ignorant dig at Hillary and insulted the huge populace of Black supporters who are behind her.

"Another fine example of Americans voting... against their best interests."

And, then tries to wiggle out of it.

“This is not a partisan issue,” Warren insisted. Yes, in a twisted way, the hard left’s fixation

over big corporations has joined the right’s determination to undermine Obama at every pass."

Exactly.

I was going to post this.. mahalo madame. The case put forth by a showboating U.S. Sen. EW

D-Mass., — that Obama cannot be trusted to make a deal in the interests of American workers — is almost worse than wrong. It is irrelevant"

"In Washington state, for example, exports of everything from apples to airplanes have soared 40 percent over four years to total nearly $91 billion in 2014, according to The Seattle Times. About two in five jobs there are now tied to trade.

Small wonder that U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, a liberal Democrat from neighboring Oregon, has strongly supported fast-track authority."

"But then we have Warren stating with a straight face that handing negotiating authority to Obama would “give Republicans the very tool they need to dismantle Dodd-Frank.”

Huh? Obama swatted down the remark as wild, hypothetical speculation, noting he engaged in a “massive” fight with Wall Street to get the reforms passed. “And then I sign a provision that would unravel it?” he told political writer Matt Bai.

How dare the President?! "Obama Asks F.C.C. to Adopt Tough Net Neutrality Rules"

"WASHINGTON — In his most direct effort yet to influence the debate about the Internet’s future, President Obama said on Monday that a free and open Internet was as critical to Americans’ lives as electricity and telephone service and should be regulated like those utilities to protect consumers."

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/11/11/technology/obama-net-neutrality-fcc.html

How dare President ask the F.C.C. for a Free and Open Internet.. and Every Other Progressive thing he's Done while his time in Office?!!!

Obama is creating a 1,500-mile “butterfly corridor” to help Monarchs get from Mexico to Minnesota


US president Barack Obama, a friend to bees and other pollinating insects in peril, has unveiled his national strategy (pdf) to mitigate honey bee loss, increase the Monarch butterfly population, and restore the habitats of both insects, whose health is essential to our food supply. The program will depend heavily on federal agencies and will also involve Mexico and Canada, since bees and butterflies know nothing of state laws and don’t really care about borders.
