Elizabeth Warren slams House GOP’s “anarchy gang”

In a speech given on Thursday from the Senate floor, Elizabeth Warren laid into what she called the House’s “anarchy gang” and defended a vision of government as what “we as Americans have chosen to do together.”

“The anarchy gang is quick to malign government,” Warren said, “but when was the last time anyone called for regulators to go easier on companies that put lead in children’s toys, or for food inspectors to stop checking whether the meat in our grocery store is crawling with deadly bacteria, or for the FDA to ignore whether morning sickness drugs will cause horrible deformities in little babies? We never hear that.”

Warren also criticized the right’s “vague” understanding of government, terming it a “boogie-man government” and claiming that, like “the boogie-man under the bed, it’s not real.”

No, seriously Liz, we don't want to be dragged into "the same boat" as you want to put everyone else in.

Libs I've talked to give me the impression that being "in the same boat", no matter how leaky and deadly that boat is, is some sort of higher virtue.

Reminds me of an old joke:

Indian brave asks chief how he names newborns in the tribe.

Chief tells him, “I hear cry of baby, I go outside tee pee and look around.

If I see eagle flying, I name newborn Eagle flying.

If I see running bear, I name newborn Running Bear.

Why you ask so many questions Two Dogs breeding?”


Cleaned up for FR mods.

There are two types of Anarchy. There are those anarchists who want a very limited government for its own sake, and then there are those who wish to cause chaos in order for someone else to put in their own order. #OWS are the latter.

Limited government is not what I would call anarchy. It is what the founding fathers would call a necessary evil. The type of anarchy that is used for destroying the established order to bring about a new one is called revolutionary. It’s what liberalism represents if this new order is socialist by nature. Hitler described himself as a revolutionary socialist, by the way.

Because I didn’t know the answers, Chief Broken Rubber.

Funny that they deem the Tea Party wing of the Republican Party the ‘anarchy wing,’ when we are demanding the ‘rule of law.’
