21. How long will Elizabeth Warren be able to pass the DU purity test?
Fri Jun 7, 2013, 11:03 AM
Jun 2013

She voted (along with Bernie Sanders and most other senators) for the comprehensive spending bill that included the notorious provision that garnered the bill the name "The Monsanto Act".

How long can she remain a voting member of the senate until her supporters are excoriated as "apologists," or "enablers," or any of the other invectives that some DUers use to harshly condemn anyone who dares to present a counter argument to some question or another that another DUer considers blasphemous?

Myanmar democracy activist Aung San Suu Kyi was released from arrest and is now a member of her county's parliment. Her years of sacrifice and activism have already been discarded by some who are furious with her for working with people in the government who they dislike.
