U.S. Senate hopeful Elizabeth Warren, who has blasted high-powered lobbyists for General Electric while campaigning as a champion of the middle class, took $1,000 from well-known lobbyist Robert Raben, whose company lobbied for GE from 2003 to 2010. AND THEN THIS:
Warren made GE a top target from the beginning of her campaign, saying in her announcement video that the company “pays nothing in taxes” and exploits tax loopholes snuck in by their lobbyists.
FOLLOWED BY THE REPUBLICAN TALKING POINT WHICH YOU JUST MIMICKED:
“I like Robert a lot, and he’s a very good lobbyist, but Elizabeth Warren can’t have it both ways,” said John Feehery, a Republican consultant based in Washington, D.C.
So, she took $1,000, what amounts to a day's lunch money for these guys, and she STILL pummeled G.M. but the Republicans thank you for carrying their talking point for them. It appears you now have two buckets of water to carry.
