Elizabeth Warren Says Mitch McConnell Won't Even Say Hello To Her
Huffington Post ^ | April 15, 2017 | Sam Levine

"I say hello to Mitch every chance I get, and he turns his head."

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has apparently been ignoring Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) since moving to silence her on the Senate floor in February, Warren told The Boston Globe.

McConnell cut Warren off in February as she tried to read a letter from Coretta Scott King during a speech on the Senate floor, explaining her opposition to Jeff Session’s nomination to be attorney general. McConnell invoked a little-used rule that blocks senators "by any form of words impute to another Senator or to other Senators any conduct or motive unworthy or unbecoming a Senator."

Even though Sessions was eventually confirmed and two months have passed since the incident, the relationship between the two senators still remains frosty.

"I've spoken to him, but he has not spoken to me," Warren told the Globe in an interview published Saturday. "I say hello to Mitch every chance I get, and he turns his head."

I wouldn’t say hello to you either, and if I was unfortunate enough to be your husband, I would never return home.

Whining is unattractive, Elizabeth, and pretty much confined to women who feel powerless. I commend Mitch for treating you the way you deserve.

Having spent some time at Fort Knox I became at least somewhat familiar with the people of Kentucky and I can guarantee Liawatha that the majority of the state's residents would spit in her face if given the chance.
