The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Ms Warren and DSCC Money

Over at the Boston Herald is a short item on Ms Elizabeth Warren's campaign finance filings, or lack thereof.  OK, so they are getting their act together.  On the other hand, the article believes that she is taking money from the Democrat Senatorial Campaign Committee, and Wall Street is their biggest contributor.

Comment Number 3 on the item is:
Of course not. She can accept all of the DSCC money, that’s not coming from Wall Street.
Do people not understand the concept of fungible?  My computer dictionary says:
(of goods contracted for without an individual specimen being specified) able to replace or be replaced by another identical item; mutually interchangeable:  money is fungible—money that is raised for one purpose can easily be used for another.
In other words, it is like water flowing into a lake from several streams.  At the other end of the lake, at the place the water flows out, that water is pretty thoroughly mixed and indistinguishable.

Hat tip to the Instapundit.  What does he know?  He is a law professor.

Politicians use other peoples money. Until we change that paradigm, it will be creepy.

Is Wall St a monolith? Is Warren Buffet considered part of it? Are there other Wall Sters that share Buffet's views, more or less?

Liz Warren is very clear on her position with regards to consumer protections.

Or, does cynicism propel you to assume she will pull a Mitt Romney flip?

We know Scott Brown's record of standing up for "Wall St." We know Liz Warren's record of taking them on.

Each MA voter will choose who reflects their ideals the closest.

Is there a living MA voter today who can honestly believe that Scott Brown's national political career extends beyond November??? In the last MAJOR democratic party stronghold....bastion.....in the nation.....that Brown was elected at all is "creepy." Somebody at the MA Dem party was asleep at the switch at the wrong time. He or she probably joined all of Whitey Bulger's "friends."

Leftist Liz will cruise to victory.....Vegas isn't even considering odds......
