    Man I just can’t believe how petty Democrat lovers are.
    It could be Saddam vs. Trump and you’d vote Saddam just to vote against Trump!!

    If she wore an Indian headdress to one of the debates and drank a beer on stage, I'd vote for her. My county voted 73% Trump, so it wouldn't be a biggie.

    Well the dead are a solid Democrat voting bloc, so I could understand if they supported Saddam.

    Red herring on the menu for tonight I see.

    OP Topic:
    Elizabeth Warren: "How could the American people want someone who lies to them?”

    I don't see Trump in any of the OP. Just can't resist diverting?

    Washington, DC is our Achilles Heel. We'd be better off without it.

    It's hard to believe, but the godless left actually worships government.

    I Liked Warren Until '16 When She Failed To
    Run For President leaving the Progressive
    Vote to Bernie and associating with Hillary with the
    paramount importance of a gender based presidency.



    Warren sold her soul as certainly as

    Hubert Humphrey did to LBJ!
    Al Franken would have been a contender if NOT for
    the FemDems , , , MeToo - ed him.
    Some - too late - along with female co workers on SNL objecting
    or later regretting.

    TRUST THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY TO SNATCH

    DEFEAT FROM THE JAWS OF VICTORY.

    for you youngsters that's Michael Dukakis
    blowing his lead in the polls / expectations.



    Moi :oldman:
    Voted Obama in '08 and he lied to me

    It's her very own efforts to become likable,
    that might become justifiable and correct if she do have a lot of followers behind her.

    Mexico actively participates in not letting caravans and other illegal aliens to reach the United States; in other words, Mexico IS the wall. Thank you, President Trump :applause:

    I'm with you on that - the morality went out the window with dick Clinton turning Oval Office into an Oral Orifice.

    Where is the lie?
    Both of her kids did attend public school. Her son switched to private, but he did attend public for several years.
    She is part Indian. Not much. Even only a minuscule bit. But she is part Indian.
    There is a dispute about whether she was fired, resigned or forced to resign for being pregnant. Her version is that she was fired / asked to leave for being pregnant. That has not been demonstrated to be wrong.
    Janitor - this is semantics. She has variously described him as a janitor and a maintenance man. Without knowing exactly what he did, both descriptions could quite easily be accurate.
    There is a racial disparity in paying off student loans. She might not have got the exact statistics perfect, but her overall point is correct.
    Yep, calling a justified homicide a "murder" is wrong. But not really a lie so much as hyperbole. To be clear, I totally disagree with her use of the word, but politicians say things like this all the time. It is no different than a conservative politician calling abortion murder.

    So you don't really have much to go on if you are trying to call her hypocritical for lying.

    And since you brought Trump into this - he tells more lies every day than your list from Warren which stretches over years.

    Asinine assertion on your part. There is a huge gap between “worshiping “ and simply acknowledging the fact that while very flawed, our form of government is one of the better designed governments that has existed. And nobody ever claimed that a representative form of government was ever going to be inexpensive or extremely efficient, but if you look at the fact that half our states don’t have the GDP numbers to run themselves, “better off” becomes a very suspect claim.

    Liz,... on camera... having a beer. That video should be on constant loop. It just begs the question.. she know's she's lying to the people, but does it really bother her anymore?

    All that runs are people that lie. People like people to lie to them.

    IMO, (ducks and hides) warren would fare better in a debate than any other front runners. she would have some fun zingers. I dont like her, but shes a strong and confident debater.

    bernie would come across more genuine but I think his base is too small to make the leap to the general.

    biden would struggle the most, just because hes been flubbing.

    this assumes those 3 are the front runners, perhaps there will be a surprise after the early primaries.

    your preference is?

    fwiw if i was voting in dem primaries, mine is biden, gaffes and all, with mayor Pete 2nd.

    not a bernie or warren fan.

    overall I like Amy but shes low energy and polling single digits, I compare her to rand paul, a good choice that just cant get traction.

    side note: bloom and Steyer are spending tons of money on tv ads locally in florida, will they keep this up through super Tuesday then hang it up?

    I've already sent steyer to the showers but Bloomberg is an unknown.
