Middle Class Hero Lizzie Warren: "I love little businesses" (JWF)

Now that we've all been caught lying about the incendiary class warfare of Elizabeth Warren and Barack Obama, it's about time the non-Cherokee Harvard professor set us all straight. Appearing with the non-partisan newsman Al Sharpton on MSNBC last night, Warren let America know she really, really likes small businesses because some of her non-Native American relatives themselves have started up their own.

SHARPTON: Now, how do you respond to this new ad from Senator Brown?

WARREN: You know, this is just one more attempt to not talk about the central issues. But the way I look at this: I love little businesses. My daughter started a small business, my brother started a small business, my Aunt Alice started a small business--I worked in it when I was a teenager.

Apparently Aunt Alice's restaurant was in violation of child labor laws, if we're to believe Warren.

She started waiting tables at 13 at her Aunt Alice’s Mexican restaurant.

I notice her bio page doesn't claim credit for creating the intellectual foundation for the Occupy Wall Street anarchists.

Meanwhile, Obama was out in the Bay Area at a series of lavish fundraisers, including one attended by some Solyndra honchos.

And the GOP is loving the sight of Westly at the Obama fundraiser. Also spotted was Matt Rogers, an ex-Department of Energy adviser, who helped approve Solyndra’s loan.

No sooner were the lemons in the air than the Republican National Commitee had made lemonade out of it:

“Looks like some of the central characters in the Solyndra scandal and other green energy controversies gave up even more money for the Obama campaign tonight,” quips Matt Connelly of the RNC. “And is there any more fitting metaphor for the failures of Obama’s green energy program than one of them juggling lemons?”

Ouch.

So after spending $100 million distorting Mitt Romney's record at Bain Capital, Obama whined about Romney distorting his attack on small businesses.

"Knowingly twisting my words to suggest I don't value small business. In politics, we all tolerate a certain amount of spin. I understand those are the games that get played in political campaigns. Although, when folks like omit entire sentences of what you said, they start kind of splicing and dicing, you may have gone a little over the edge there.”

Obama's speech in Roanoke doesn't need to be distorted in any way. His ugly class warfare was plain for all to see. But now he's worried his "vision" is distorted. As to that:

A stimulus bill equivalent to 1,567 Golden Gate bridges. A 2011 federal budget equivalent to 6,788 Golden Gate bridges. And yet we don't have a single one.

Because that's not what Big Government does: Money-no-object government spends more and more money for less and less objects. For all the American economy has to show for it, President Bob the Builder took just shy of a trillion dollars in stimulus, stuck it in his wheelbarrow, pushed it halfway across the Golden Gate Bridge, and tossed it into the Pacific.

Instead of roads and bridges, Obama-sized government funds stasis and sclerosis: The Hoover Dam of regulatory obstruction, the Golden Gateway to dependency. Last month, 80,000 Americans signed on to new jobs, but 85,000 Americans signed on for Social Security disability checks. Most of these people are not "disabled" as that term is generally understood. Rather, it's the U.S. economy that's disabled, and thus Obama incentivizes dependency.

The words of Obama and Warren will justifiably haunt them the rest of this campaign cycle. Any pathetic attempt to tell voters they didn't see what they saw should be met with only derision and mockery.
