Elizabeth Warren lied when she said she was Indian.

She allowed Harvard to claim her as a minority because of her LIE.

She now has been crowned "FAUXchontas" and she, like Barack Obama, believe that YOUR success belongs to everyone.

Here's Elizabeth Warren at a stop in Dorchester, MA where she is running for Senator:

“I think the basic notion is right. Nobody got rich on their own. Nobody. People worked hard, they build a business, God bless, but they moved their goods on roads the rest of us helped build, they hired employees the rest of us helped educate, they plugged into a power grid the rest of us helped build,” she said.

It's dangerous to have people like this in office.

You don't own that house.
You don't own that car.
You don't own your business.

THE PEOPLE do because you used the roads, you employed people educated in our schools, you used the power grid.

Obama and Warren are SCARY PEOPLE. They don't belong in power.

NO in NOvember
NO to OWEbama
NOthing is your's
EVERYTHING belongs to everyone.

NO!

Dangerous times in the USA.

Everyone assumes we are better off because Obama saved the GM union. Ever think what if he did not, what would the new GM be like, do people really think the car company would have just gone away?

Don't think for a minute GM did not go bankrupt, it did if you think not then why don't you buy some some old GM stock, you can get it for pennies.

The bankruptcy was controlled by Obama with him picking winners and looser instead of the rule of law.

Better off? Tell me about how your home values did in the Obama recession.

excerpt from 'Why Blame Obama?'-- a brief summary of Obamanomics including TARP, GM (as shown below), the Stimulus, Spending Overall, Taxing, Obamacare and Energy & Regulation

A great read.

--The U.S. auto industry was not "saved." Going bankrupt does not have to mean going out of business. See, for example, Delta Airlines. It went bankrupt in the usual, lawful way and is operating today. On the other hand, GM could be heading into bankruptcy again, post-bailout. Oh, and since the bailout, "GM has increased its manufacturing capacity in China by 55 percent."

The government auto takeovers did not prevent bankruptcies. What they prevented was the usual rule of bankruptcy law. Instead of paying back creditors in a predictable and lawful way, the federal government simply robbed bondholders and non-UAW workers and retirees (especially at Delphi) and delivered sweet, sweet payback to the union bosses of the UAW.

The effect goes beyond the direct costs to taxpayers and specific investors and employees. Who would make investments or long-term decisions with this kind of rule-of-man uncertainty and ascendant cronyism?

Anyone with even so much as a functioning brain stem remembers all the jobs that disappeared, the factories that closed, the jobs given to illegal immigrants, the billions made by defense contractors at taxpayer expense, the billions made by Wall Street for bundling worthless loans and selling them worldwide.

The idiots who 'don't remember' are those who would force us to relive it all again just to get that black man out of the White House.

Wall street, the Banks etc. control Washington. It seems that Americans didn't heed the founding father's warning:

OK, so some guys on Wall Street hatched up a scheme to dump junk mortage backed securities (credit defaults) to the unsuspecting public. That was wrong, but they were only taking advantage of a realestate crisis that had been slowly going bad for months or even years beforehand. That wasn't what [caused] the financial crisis in the United States; it was only a symptom.

The real question is: Why did so many mortages go into default in such a short timeframe in the first place?

Daily Horoscope for May 25

Aquarius

You're very feisty and energetic and there's a lot you want to achieve. You'll get rather impatient if anyone stands in your way. A close emotional relationship will either be sexy and exciting beyond belief, or bad-tempered and tetchy. If you're in a grumpy mood, try to work out why - and what would improve matters. One thing that's bound to help is physical exercise, because it will burn off any excess nervous energy.
