I live in Mass and the political ads have started en masse.

Many want Warren to win because somehow that will give Obama more power if he wins and there is some sort of implied idea that one party rule makes for a good government.

Regardless it is becoming more than obvious that Warren has no experience in politics. She has not held office in anything. If you think Obama was a amateur he has nothing on her.

I've addressed earlier the whole issues with the CFPB but it gets worse.

One of her latest ads states that oil companies have more profit than any other industry. This is incorrect. That is banking. But she won't say that because she has ties to the banking industry.

Ok fine but then it gets even worse

She state that China invests more of its GDP in infrastructure. Although that is true she's impling as if why can't we do that as well...She shows unemployed contractors and bridges that need repair...here's some facts

1) Much of the Mass area DOES have roads and bridges in disrepair. Want to know why? The big dig. The big dig was one of the largest construction projects the company had and thus it sucked up any funding for other projects in the state. We've known this for decades now.

2) China can be fast on these matters for a number of reasons
It is a ONE party state - There's no debates, no fillabuster and no elections (at least outside the party)
It is a unitary state. What's this mean? The national government controls everything. There is NO state, NO local, NO county say on anything. It's all by the unitary government
It has NO unions within itself to deal with. Remember Reagan with Patco? that's like the tip of the iceberg. Unions don't exist in government in China.

3) We ALREADY had a projects for roads and bridges years ago. It was called the recovery act! Funds were given to states and then to local governments to shovel ready projects. There's no such thing as a permanent construction job!

She claims that Iran is working on nuclear weapons. Um...ok. Now if the CIA says they aren't, the Mossad says they aren't and most importantly President Obama says they aren't then where the hell is she getting her information from? She she have her own spying operations in the middle east? The last time we went to war with political leaders believing in things that didn't exist we ended up in Iraq. I don't think we can afford another war.

The other thing that shows me she isn't paying attention is her latest comments on student loan debt. She states it is over a trillion dollars but at the same time she doesn't say that it is the federal government giving out these loans and not private businesses. She implies as if the government should give funds out. Even Bernanke states some of this to be true. When the government subsidizes demand prices go up. When you subsidize supply prices go down. If she ran for office during the 1950's she probably would have advocated for giving cars away to everyone and not build the interstate highway system which would have resulted in massive traffic jams all over the country in the name of equity.

She is not explaining herself and frankly her arguments don't make any rational sense. If a simple google search can disprove your statements you really don't deserve to hold any form of political office.

If Brown calls her out on any of these during the debate she's going to lose hands down. She'll be the political equivalence of New Coke.

I'm not claiming Brown is perfect by any means but at least he isn't putting his foot in his mouth every other day. Biden has nothing on her.
