| Massachusetts Senator-elect Elizabeth Warren, in her first press conference last Thursday after defeating Sen. Scott Brown, displayed a glaring lack of knowledge and confidence about the issues voters presumably elected her to solve and the campaign she had just run. In fact, Warren, a liberal professor whose supposed intelligence and convictions the mainstream media often fawned over, came across as awkward and unprepared, as she did when she tried to deflect questions about her questionable Native-American heritage last spring.

I hope to never, ever, travel to MA again. Been there many times--don´t need to go back.
I feel the same about CA and VT.
I want to spend my travel and leisure money in places that don´t hate America and everything it stands for.
There are several countries in Eastern Europe that deserve our travel support--Poland, Czech Republic, Croatia, just to name a few.

´Maybe it’s indiscreet to talk about discretion.´
Good lord. She needs to share an office with Al Franken. Between the two of them, they might form intelligent thought. By accident.

They should ask her some fluff questions like, "What´s your favorite recipe for acorn mash?" and "Isn´t chewing all of that leather bad for your teeth?" Or, "Do you really think the voters of MA are stupid enough to elect you?"
Well, never mind on that last one. We already have the answer.

Instead of Indian demeaning or mocking words we need to honor the first Native American woman senator. Send her congratulations, plan a statue, demand the news outlets so acknowledge her as such since I do believe she has never denied it or given back the privileges the claim got her?
I love poetic justice or the petards catching their owners.

It´s hard to believe there wasn´t some fraud involved. Brown´s approval ratings were well ahead of hers, and he got most of the newspaper endorsements, except for the Globe. Even in Boston itself, Brown was running 55-45 ahead of Warren the day before the election.

This is scary, but it´s not just Warren. It´s everyone who is being installed into office on the Left -- they are know-nothings.
Look at Franken, look at Warren and others who seem maleable and then ponder that the Left at the highest levels wants idiots in Congress, in Governorships and down-ballot so they can be bullied into toeing the Leftist Party line.
Now look at the military scandal which I believe is all about getting rid of competent people who have America´s best national security interests in mind, in favor of those who will do what they´re told to screw America over and leave her ripe for dictatorship or mullah-rule.
It´s not about sex, and Elizabeth Warren is not about being competent. She is another tool. This infiltration of easily-manipulated tools has now begun to culminate in a country run by socialists, communists and Muslim-friendly Sharia-advocates.
How long until we one day wake up and find ourselves under Marshall Law or worse, with the populace disarmed by new gun laws, our currency useless from debt, our Constitution replaced, electricity, water and food rationed and medical care denied except for minorities?
There are prophets among us talking about these very things. Warren is just a symptom of the cancer that has eaten away at the once-proud nation that used to be the only place to go to be free and prosper.

This isn´t really news. Massachusetts voters almost always vote for the most corrupt, the most destructive, the most anti-American candidate the Democrats can field. Scott Brown´s election in 2010 was an inexplicable anomoly. Warren is an exceptionably desirable candidate from a Massachusetts point of view.

Please don´t malign those of us stuck behind enemy lines especially here in western MA. We ar every conservativ but we have no voice here, never have and never will. It is harder to stand and fight when you know you will not win than to give up and run.
We continue to fight the good fight with the support of our fellow Americans in red states & those of you LDotters who offer courage in these very dark, dark days.
May God help us all.

just to correct a thought. Ben Nighthorse Campbell (born April 13, 1933) was a U.S. Senator from Colorado from 1993 until 2005. Warren is not the first native-american( I hate the hyphenation) senator. Are we Americans or are we African-Americans, Italian-Americans, Cuban-Americans, or Native-Americans.

It is very frustrating for MA conservatives every election. I still have family there... even a 20-something nephew who is smart, a hard worker, very bright... and conservative.
We are dang angry that the putrefaction of MA has spread to NH, where we have lived for 15 years. The same pattern occuredin VT, and is being duplicated in the southern states where "boomers" are moving when they retire. My FL sister notes this with chagrin.
So, how did Warren, the bobble-head, beat Brown? A few things, a) she´s reliably left-wing; b) she´s a guaranteed toady for anything Reid/leadership command; c) she got tons of money, and she got profuse propaganda aid by so-called msm.
Some wonder about Harvard. Well, most of the students there are legacy students, not necessarily the brightest. Then there are the minority tokens. Harvard turns out cookie-cutter intellects. Conservatives there have to hone their intellectual skills in order to survive.
Warren reflects all of the banalities.
So really, how did this no experience, know-nothing demagogue get elected? Same way BO did, dem/lefties everywhere and here in NH, too: a lot of women voted with their "lady parts." A lot of men voted with their "lady parts," too. No cognitive function needed.

I have little hope for the advertisements tomorrow after this article, because I don´t understand fake Cherokee tongue and I don´t need new moccasins.
As for the Mexican guy who knocked on the door yesterday selling something. It helps if you speak English if you want me to buy something (which isn´t going to happen anyway).

When the non-FOX MSM write the narratives and FOX News becomes so much more ´moderate´then the claim that this is a Center-Right country is a massive canard. Warren is one of the flakiest, looniest candidates to come down the pike but she beats the incumbent Brown. Obama remains the least qualified person to sit in the Oval Office in modern American history but waltzes into re-election over an accomplished ´problem solver´ when the Nation has never more needed one....It was and is the non-Fox media that all but guarantees what images and what stories will be told..... Stop the world---I want to get off!

The Mass Senate seat was bought and paid for by the same corruptocrats who have foisted and unqualified, possibly unamerican affirmitive action president upon us. She will be just one more unthinking vote for the democrats in the senate. I am so embarrassed that MA could elect an unprepared, unvetted Okie to replace a man of honor to represent us. The Metro west newspapers last night editorilized that we should elect more veterans to our legislatures to honor and repay them for their service. This after a year of printing nothing but Granny Warren puff pieces. Typical liberal illogic.

Most of these embarrassments get in in presidential election years. The young and many affluent childless urban voters aren´t deeply rooted enough to follow local politics so they are more likely to stay home then. After all, how many Senate or Governor´s races does the Daily Show cover? Ergo they can´t be important.

All they need to do is what they´re told, and push a button that says YES or NO, on any legislation.

Having any D is better than any R since it helps Dems with the majority, and allows them to set the agenda.
And I agree with previous post, the Dems count on all the college students who sign-up to vote and do in November. That´s called ground-game.

I remember my first trip to Boston back in 04. I was in the Navy then and as you know it was an election year. My friends and I went by MIT on a tour of the city. Talk about your brain dead voters. They tried to shove Kerry buttons and pamplets on me. I took them and threw them in the trash. I see that the quality of voters has not changed with the election of a fake dullard. What is up with you people in Taxachusetts? Thanks for foistering another empty headed female lib senator on us. She should get along with the other female geniuses" like Feinsein, Boxer, Murray, Murkowsky and Graham.

Margaret Thatcher captured Americans’ hearts and minds in a way few other foreign leaders have done, and much of that was because of the symbiotic relationship she had with President Reagan — a relationship that in many ways mirrored the storied “special” friendship between the two countries. Mrs. Thatcher, who died Monday at age 87, was a tough-talking maverick who was bullish on the promise of the U.S. as a force on the international stage. Those traits appealed to Americans weary of the 1970s malaise and eager to hear reasons to believe in themselves. “She had the perfect balance between

Beginning a week of high pressure on gun control, the White House on Monday accused some Republican senators of cowardice for planning to filibuster gun legislation without allowing the full Senate to vote on President Obama’s initiatives. “If they oppose this legislation, have the courage to say so on the floor and vote no,” said White House press secretary Jay Carney. “Don’t block it. Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”

Guess which country is the world’s largest oil producer. No, it’s not Saudi Arabia or Russia. It’s the United States, which passed Saudi Arabia in November of 2012, according to data from the federal Energy Information Administration and reported in Investors Business Daily. In 2012 American domestic output rose by an astonishing 800,000 barrels a day. That’s more than total oil production in such middling oil producers as Argentina, and the greatest single-year increase in the United States since Edwin Drake drilled the first well in 1859. That has consequences far beyond the oil patches

“UNLESS WE change our ways and our direction, our greatness as a nation will soon be a footnote in the history books, a distant memory of an offshore island, lost in the mists of time like Camelot, remembered kindly for its noble past.” Margaret Thatcher, never given to understatement, presented that grim vision for Britain in 1979, the year she became prime minister. Then, for the next 11½ years — almost as long as three U.S. presidential terms — she worked with fierce determination and unrelenting stubbornness to dispel it

A three-minute video of Sarah Merkle’s testimony about Maryland’s new gun legislation has drawn more than 2 million views on YouTube, won her praise from gun rights advocates across the country and even scored her an interview on national television last week. But the 15-year-old from Baltimore said she cares more about her message. “The biggest part of this is that the pro-gun, Second Amendment argument is getting publicity,” she said. “I like that it actually got out there, and not just because it’s me, but because it’s the argument.”

A growing number of senators are trying to quash gun legislation before it even hits the chamber floor as Democrats hold out hope for a compromise and the White House gears up for a weeklong offensive to pressure Congress to act. Larry Pratt, executive director of Gun Owners of America, said as many as 13 senators now publicly support a filibuster on the motion to proceed on pending gun legislation, which effectively would block debate on the bill. “When you’re in a snake pit, you kill a snake any time and chance that you get,”

In interviews on “Fox News Sunday” and ABC’s “This Week,”Dan Pfeiffer, a senior White House adviser, pointed out that 90 percent of Americans support President Obama’s plan to expand background checks on citizens who purchase guns, and he pressured Republicans to get on board with what he said where “common-sense measures.” “You can’t get 90 percent of Americans to agree on the weather,” Mr. Pfeiffer said on “Fox News Sunday.” Mr. Pfeiffer warned that a potential Republican filibuster

President Obama won rare foreign policy praise from Republicans for his administration’s handling of the North Korea crisis, as China signaled a possible readiness to play a more active role in pressuring Pyongyang away from provoking a military conflict. Two influential Republicans commended the White House on separate news talk shows Sunday for striking an effective balance by allowing senior Cabinet members to issue cautionary remarks in response to North Korea, while also strategically adjusting the U.S. military posture in the region. “This administration’s acted responsibly,” said Sen.

The world’s greatest deliberative body has started to look a lot like its legislative little brother over the past few years. The Senate was once regarded as the home of the great political orators of the time — not to mention the body where true dealmaking actually took place. Its members prided themselves on their cool approach to legislating, in contrast with the more brawling nature of the House. Senators, generally, liked one another — no matter their party — and weren’t afraid to show it, either personally or politically. No longer. The Senate has undergone a marked transformation

Prospects for a bipartisan deal to expand federal background checks for gun purchases are improving with the emergence of fresh Republican support, according to top Senate aides. The possibility that after weeks of stalled negotiations senators might be on the cusp of a breakthrough comes as President Obama and his top surrogates will begin on Monday their most aggressive push yet to rally Americans around his gun-control agenda. Even though polls show that a universal background-check system is supported by nine in 10 Americans, the president has been unable to translate popular support

HARTFORD, Conn. -- With time running out on the chance to pass gun control legislation, President Barack Obama on Monday warned Congress not to use delaying tactics against tighter regulations and told families of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims that he´s "determined as ever" to honor their children with tougher laws. Obama´s gun control proposals have run into resistance on Capitol Hill, leaving their fate in doubt.

Itar-Tass also quoted the U.K.’s Sky News as saying North Korea currently has eight nuclear warheads.

Life News reports: ...a former employee described how she heard a baby scream during a live-birth abortion.

The letter from the group, “Special Operations Speaks,” supports the appointment of a special committee tasked with the single mission of investigating the attack that left Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans dead, and shut down the CIA operation in an annex of the Benghazi consulate, in the Sept. 11, 2012 attack. “Congress must show some leadership and provide answers to the public

There was growing buzz over the weekend that a bipartisan agreement on gun control — a deal that would expand background checks — could hit the floor as early as this week. However, any deal could be derailed by the looming threat of a Republican filibuster involving Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. With Cruz standing proudly in the way of any gun legislation, Democrats are trying to make him pay a political price — and even a couple of high-profile Republicans are questioning his tactics.

Married couple George Harasz and Douglas Wirth of Glastonbury were supposed to be sentenced Friday in Hartford Superior Court under a plea deal, but instead withdrew from their agreement with prosecutors. The men had already pleaded no contest in January to one felony count each of risk of injury to a minor — a reduction from even more serious charges related to sexual assault....
