In Op-Ed, Elizabeth Warren Hits Scott Brown and Mitt Romney For Opposing The Buffet Rule

In Op-Ed, Elizabeth Warren Hits Scott Brown and Mitt Romney For Opposing The Buffet Rule | Massachusetts Senate Candidate Elizabeth Warren (D) published an op-ed today criticizing her opponent, Sen. Scott Brown (R), for his opposition to the Buffet Rule, a proposal by the Obama administration to implement a 30 percent minimum tax on millionaires. She also took a swipe at GOP Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney, calling his ability to pay a lower tax rate than many middle-class working families wrong and unfair. “Just last week, Scott Brown said in an interview that he thinks Mitt Romney and Warren Buffett should get special tax breaks that are not available to most Americans. I don’t think that’s fair,” wrote Warren. Brown, who now trails Warren in most polling, told The Sun Chronicle last weekend that he opposes Obama’s plan.

who is just (hilariously) echoing what Paul said about her.

I want to move to MA just to vote for Elizabeth Warren, but I'd probably get flayed if I showed up in my Yankee hat. =op
