Elizabeth Warren and the Threat of Marauding Bands of Asthma Sufferers

I'm all for getting back to a balanced budget even if that means some increased tax revenue, but don't sign me up for the class warfare.



Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren has a message to factory owners on why they should accept a tax increase:

"You didn't have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory."

Marauding bands? Warren clearly has in mind the left-wing activists protesting on Wall Street since Saturday with the chants "pay your share."



You call this a revolution? The videographers among the protesters outnumber the guys actually willing to get arrested by 20 to 2. One of those guys has asthma and desperately needs his inhaler, the other says he could really use a new pair of handcuffs.

That being a NYPD cop is a hard job. One day it's two planes being flown into the World Trade Center. Another day it's lefty college students with large backpacks, even larger attitudes, and the National Lawyers Guild on their cell phone speed dial. We've come a long way, black cops dragging white kids through the streets in handcuffs.
