Why, YES, GOP...when it comes to fucking with your agenda, she IS the "Matriarch of Mayhem."
GOP: Warren is the ‘Matriarch of Mayhem’ for ‘anti-capitalist’ Occupy movement

By Stephen C. Webster
Thursday, October 27, 2011



http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2011/10/27/gop-elizabeth-warren-is-the-matriarch-of-mayhem-for-anti-capitalist-occupy-movement/

Republicans in Massachusetts have chosen a confusing line of attack on Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren, the Democrat who helped create the Consumer Financial Protection Agency and is now challenging Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA).

They’re calling her, for some reason, the “Matriarch of Mayhem,” and suggesting that “Occupy Wall Street” is somehow an “anti-capitalist” movement that she secretly leads.

In a new ad released this week, the Massachusetts GOP tries to connect Warren’s comment that the “Occupy Wall Street” protesters are calling for financial reforms — similar to those she helped author — with a couple of fringe protesters whose on-camera comments are taken severely out of context, as if they represent the tens of thousands who’ve participated in marches over the last month.

The ad also quotes Warren saying she’d “thrown rocks” at people who don’t support her (she was speaking rhetorically), and implies that she literally wants “blood and teeth on the floor” if the U.S. does not get a strong consumer watchdog.

2. She looks like a rock thrower
I can just see this lady in her teal blue business suit throwing rocks, and knocking people's teeth out. Mike Tyson would shiver in fear at the very sight of her. :sarcasm:

They can't decide WHO is "secretly" leading OWS. First it was George Soros, then it was ACORN, now it's Elizabeth Warren. I'm sure I'm forgetting several other "secret leaders". The hyperbole is to the point where it's absolutely ridiculous.

6. And then there's the
Edited on Fri Oct-28-11 08:41 AM by Le Taz Hot
new one which several Boosters are spreading on DU which is that she takes lobbyist monies. She took a whole $1,000 from a G.E. lobbyist and STILL kicked G.E.'s ass up and down K Street so that $1,000 didn't buy them anything.

And I just LOVE that whole she-secretly-controls-the-OWS-movement part. I don't even think the lackey MSM can repeat that one with a straight face.

8. Ewwwww, a thousand dollars!
I don't know whether to :rofl: or :grr:

$1000 is nothing, nothing, compared to what the ones going after her rake in.

They are frightened that her message resonate with the voters, not the big corporate contributors.

I'm waiting for the day SCOTUS rules giving corporations the right to vote. There was a time I would have considered that possibility total science fiction, but not any more.

11. Pugs have always hated strong women. Warren overwhelms them.
It has to be frustrating when they throw rocks at Warren and she doesn't cry, but have Boehner and Graham bawling at the drop of a hat.

What a group....what a group! They can't even "man" up!
