Elizabeth Warren

I take pride in my Irish heritage. Many of my friends and acquaintances similarly take pride in their ethnic backgrounds, be it French-Canadian, Italian, Albanian, Hispanic etc.

Apparently, however, the right wing specialists in the politics of personal destruction find this offensive in some cases. Those cases apply when one’s heritage falls in a category officially recognized as a “minority”.

Barack Obama is castigated by many of these delusional haters as an obvious beneficiary of affirmative action whose current status is little more than the result of “reverse discrimination”. 

Now these fabulists have skulked out from under their mossy rocks to use the same tactics against Massachusetts Senatorial candidate Elizabeth Warren.

Senator Scott Brown is now a co-sponsor of the Blunt Rubio bill.

Tomorrow the Senate is scheduled to vote on the Blunt Rubio Bill. Senator Scott Brown supports this bill. What would the Blunt Rubio bill do? Some examples. A Christian Scientist could deny all health coverage to all of their employees. A Scientologist could deny any psychiatric care, addiction services or related medication to all of their employees. Where would it end? 

Well, on the bright side, The Church of Christ Scientist would see a dramatic influx of converts from the business community if this bill passes.

UPDATE: Blunt Rubio Amendment Defeated
