Elizabeth Warren goes back to CA for fundraiser hosted by Matt Damon, Ben Affleck and John Krasinski
The Republican ^

Democratic U.S. Senate hopeful Elizabeth Warren is going back to California on May 21 for a big ticket fundraiser hosted by three of the Bay State's favorite sons.

Actors Matt Damon, Ben Affleck and The Office's John Krasinski are hosting a $1,000 minimum donation event in the Harvard Law School professor's honor, as she takes on Republican U.S. Scott Brown is what is being billed as the most expensive Senate race in history.

The event, called "A Massachusetts Evening," is being held on the rooftop of the Santa Monica building which houses Bad Robot Productions, a TV production company owned by J.J. Abrams.

While minimum individual donations are $1,000 to simply be a guest, the positions of co-host or co-chair are restricted to those contributing at least $2,500 and $5,000 respectively.

Warren's latest receipt of California love comes following similar fundraisers alongside celebrities like Cher, Bette Middler, Danny Devito and Rhea Pearlman.

In recent months, the Massachusetts Republican Party has taken aim at Warren for her out-of-state support although Brown also raises significant money from outside the state.

The Brown campaign should take a page from the DemocRat playbook and hire college kids or vagrants to stand outside of all of Warren's campaign events wearing Indian outfits.

Yes, why do people who are best at playing pretend get adulation rather than ridicule when they offer opinions outside their area. Boycott Hollyweird. Drop cable.

Isn’t Shania Twain really an Indian. And if so, should we at least have multiple photographic evidence as to the quality, character, and nature of true Indians, such as Shania Twain, be profered for our own edification, in order that we might compare and contrast fraudulent representations of the American Indian and true and accurate renditions of the American Indian, such as Shania Twain. For if faux representative of that ethnicity be promulgated without a true and accurate photograph of the native American, such as that of Shania Twain, do we not all suffer. And if false representatives of the Native American bleed, how much more does the lack of photographic evidence of the true Native American, such as Shania Twain. Are we not all diminished by the lack of photodocumentation of real Native American Maidens, such as Shania Twain. Could I demand less that that very photographic evidence of true Native American Maiden, such as the prototypical perfection of Shania Twain? Do us all a favor and put up a picture of Twain....it’s killing me.
