Elizabeth Warren's 11 Commandments of Progressivism

With Barry O. tanking in the polls, the Marxocrats have lifted up a new "Idol for the people" - Elizabeth "Fauxcahontas" Warren.

Now in the limelight, Warren manifesto thumps more of the same with her "Eleven Commandments" - proving, once again, that the Left are nothing mote than fundamentalist theocrats.

In response to these "Eleven Commandments of Progressives", I'd like to repeat the "One Suggestion of Objectivists".

1) Shrug.

    - "We believe that students are entitled to get an education without being crushed by debt."

    This debt would disappear if the professors and administrators would agree to work for minimum wage. Problem solved!

    Ok let me ask a couple, just for clarification.

    On 2 - who protected the Earth in the past?
    On 5 - Isn't min. wage a starting wage for kids in school? The issue it seems to me are people grabbing low hanging fruit.
    On 9 - We have legal immigration - but that's not what the Warrenites want. They are after uncontrolled immigration. AND when all those "new" immigrants are here sucking up the min. wage jobs, who will these others work for.

    On 10 - She's wrong. Start, stop and finish. Do you own your corporation? If the answer is you, then you and it are one.

    On 11 - You want separation of church and state - except where they need to be separate??? Either the gov can impose it's will on a persons religious ideals OR it must not force itself on our religious beliefs. Which all begin where we think life starts.

    Well, let's post them if we want everybody to see just what this white/female version of BO looks like;

    1- "We believe that Wall Street needs stronger rules and tougher enforcement, and we're willing to fight for it."

    2- "We believe in science, and that means that we have a responsibility to protect this Earth."

    3- "We believe that the Internet shouldn't be rigged to benefit big corporations, and that means real net neutrality."

    4- "We believe that no one should work full-time and still live in poverty, and that means raising the minimum wage."

    5- "We believe that fast-food workers deserve a livable wage, and that means that when they take to the picket line, we are proud to fight alongside them."

    6- "We believe that students are entitled to get an education without being crushed by debt."

    6- "We believe that after a lifetime of work, people are entitled to retire with dignity, and that means protecting Social Security, Medicare, and pensions."

    7- "We believe—I can't believe I have to say this in 2014—we believe in equal pay for equal work."

    8- "We believe that equal means equal, and that's true in marriage, it's true in the workplace, it's true in all of America."

    9- "We believe that immigration has made this country strong and vibrant, and that means reform."

    10- "And we believe that corporations are not people, that women have a right to their bodies. We will overturn Hobby Lobby and we will fight for it. We will fight for it!"

    11- And the main tenet of conservatives' philosophy, according to Warren? "I got mine. The rest of you are on your own."

    No. 11 is always the case. Libs are great at telling you what you believe - no matter if you do or not.

    Elizabeth Warren is the real-life equivalent of Kip Clalmoers, and his mother Emma, who promulgated the infamous soybean project that doomed the Minnesota wheat harvest in AS.

    Sounds like she wants to control the money, natural resources, our health care, our retirement and the internet. Equal pay is a great idea, the White House should try it. Many people living in poverty are there because of politicians like Warren. It makes me cringe when I read stuff like this. Not because of what was said but because so many people cheered.

    She will be their candidate. I have heard that o has quietly endorsed her. He reneged on his deal with billary, like that was a surprise, and supports warren. Will we have a mrs. thompson rather than a mr. thompson?

    Warren is my wife's favorite they have some career background similarities ,but I think she might reject Warren if she reads more of this.
    I don't adopt any ideology, but _some_ of the tenets I agree with:
    Mostly Agree: 2, 5, 9, 10
    Only agree with a small part of it: 1,3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9
    Mostly reject: 11 (Hobby Lobby thing)
    Some of them are tricky. I wouldn't say Wall Street needs stronger rules, but rather clearer rules. We need to decide which investments are unconditionally backed by the full faith and credit of the gov't and which ones aren't backed at all by the gov't. The problem, IMHO, is lack of clarity on this.

    I read this earlier today. I noticed the words "Liberty", "Less/smaller government" "greater individual liberty" weren't among the progressive commandments. Lot's of "equality, equality". Hmmm, what did Yuri Bezmenov say about anything built on "equality"? It's a house built on sand, sooner or later, it will collapse.

    I hope she runs, she is full of it and is a great extension of our current POTUS.

    We so need a second party and maybe her ideas are enough to draw some pushback, especially if the Republican side offers us another bush or some other also ran.

    Hey it's Friday, let's have a great weekend!
