Yeah, these “both sides” arguments are really reaching. I saw a meme of army fatigues photoshopped onto the Trump kids, and a comment was “We’re literally as bad as the Republicans if we go after his children.” His kids are all still alive and free, so I’m pretty sure it’s not as bad.

She’s 70 years old.  If THAT is the only scandal to attach to her; then she is the least scandalous person to ever run for president.

This is the part that drives me crazy. Her mother told her she was part Cherokee. She believed it. I don’t understand why this is an issue. Plenty of people in this country think they are native, and they aren’t. I had a red-haired male colleague from Michigan tell me he was a minority because he was native. Men do…

When you’re willing to support your own party at the expense of the truth, you might as well be a Republican.

I am a Warren supporter with a husband who likes both her and Bernie. In all our conversations about the two, he keeps bringing up the fact that this country isn’t ready for a woman president. HE thinks she’s the best candidate, but he doesn’t think the COUNTRY is ready. I don’t think it registers with him that I find…

Obama also felt completely comfortable hanging the poor out to dry economically in the name of cutting deals with Republicans

For some reason she’s been caught in a few little fibs about her life story, which were totally unavoidable. It’s disappointing because her real story (white woman who had two parents who did not elope, was a republican and sent a kid to private school) are all teachable moments about the nature of white privilege,…

As a fellow Warren supporter, this is the correct take. I don’t doubt that Bernie made remarks about the electability of a woman candidate, because he was probably saying what we’ve all thought in the wake of 2016: wait, is this country too sexist to elect a woman? I personally believe it isn’t, which is part of why I…

Same same same same saaaaaaame. I got nothing tested and never will, but my family definitely had a similar story that got mentioned occasionally and I certainly mentioned it until I was old enough to realize it was bullshit. Also, remember the anti-racist mentality among leftist white people in the early 1990s? We…

I’m not sure “insidious” is a useful term here. 

Daily reminder that Moore stiffs his vendors on the reg and that his “both parties are awful” stances only help the Republicans.

Objectively? It was a private conversation 2 years ago. What is it you are looking at “objectively” to make any determination here?

Moore has a penchant for name calling. Moore is about 50:50 on his judgements and pronouncements. He’s now just one more loud voice in the nattering din.

Honestly we need to stop giving oxygen to Warren’s native american thing. Family claims of NA ancestry were very, very common in mid-late 20th century White America - especially if your family had been in this country for many generations. This was the case in my family and, since this was all way before DNA testing,…

Coincidentally? How naive are you? This stunt by the Warren campaign was clearly coordinated with the CNN staff and timed to coincide with the debate. Matt Taibbi did a good write-up of the whole sleazy affair. There was nothing coincidental about any of it.

cannot agree that non issue was insidious or needs to be further addressed. If THAT is among your worst criticism of Warren then it might be far easier for you to admit you would never accept her as nominee.

... I think you missed the point of this article. 

Warren has been tagged a “liar” by the GOP for a while now. Any story on Fox is accompanied by dozens to hundreds of people calling her a liar.
