I didn't realize Elizabeth Warren was so pro-military. Did you guys?

20. Why is this a matter of "concern?" You do know that Democrats serve in the military, don't you?

In fact, the hostile attitude of a very small minority of people on the left gives the Democratic Party a bad rep on this issue. A lot of us who have been lifelong Democrats have served, and there's nothing wrong with it.

John Kerry served in the military--is he evil? How about Tammy Duckworth? Is she to be excoriated as well?

John Kennedy served. Shall we throw his memory under the bus?

Al Gore served. So did Max Cleland and Daniel Inoye and Frank Lautenberg.

Charlie Rangel. Ed Markey. Jack Reed. Jim McDermott. Tulsi Gabbard. John Conyers. Tom Harkin....are these "bad" Dems?

As for EW, the bottom line is this: All Politics is Local. And weed in MA is decriminalized already. If the citizenry ever gets round to voting on a legalization referendum, she's not going to do a wet hen and object on a federal level, regardless of her stated position.

Adults can change their minds. Adults can compromise. Adults can look at a situation and say "What's my job, here?"

EW is an adult, and EW's job is to represent US--and by "US" I mean people like me, who reside in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. She's OUR Senator--we put her in the gig, and she serves US.

Which is what more senators should do!
