Part-time Work

Elizabeth Warren, whose heart-wrenching plea for more of your tax dollars was satirized here, has more than just a moral interest in the health of the federal fisc, it turns out:

The campaign for Democratic Senate hopeful Elizabeth Warren said Friday she had been paid $192,722 for serving as chairman of a congressional committee that monitored the 2008 federal bank bailout, three times as much as had originally been acknowledged…

Warren spokesman Kyle Sullivan initially said Warren, who is seeking the Democratic nomination to take on Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) next year, had earned $64,289 for serving on the oversight panel, based on executive-branch financial disclosure statements she filed for 2009 and 2010.

But Sullivan told POLITICO on Friday that the campaign had overlooked $128,433 Warren earned from the panel in 2009.

“In a rush to meet your deadline, we made an honest mistake,” Sullivan said.

It is drearily difficult to keep track of other people’s money, sometimes.

    Big surprise. Her lips were moving, after all…

    Scott Brown will mop up the floor with her…..even here in Massachusetts, people are sick & tired of these liberal idiots.

    Example in point – State Rep in my district bowed out of his position which caused a special election…the two opponents were a well known Dem Union Activist vs. a little known Republican who ran on a platform of reform (and refused a state pension)

    Keiko Orrall (R) won handily….There is hope after all….even here in the bluest of blue states.

    Socialism, Communism, Fascist Corporatism, The Administrative State, Statism–call it what you will, but Warren looks, walks (acts) and quacks like a member of THE NOMENKLATURA in ANYBODYS political taxonomy.

  • “In a rush to meet your deadline, we made an honest mistake,” Sullivan said.

    Emphasis mine. And quite the wording – blame it on the people who needed to know the right information, for daring to rush the little darling.
